if you want to be successful those who don't want it as bad as you are never gonna understand they're gonna wonder why you're spending time away from them why you don't answer their text messages and phone calls your sacrifice they're not gonna get but when i saw this simple example from this guy by the name of don to pandey it changed my perspective on that entirely it's not selfish to go after success and here's why think about it like this you are in the middle of this tissue and on each of the four corners is your mom your dad your brother your best friend will the people that matter most to you in life as you have a pursuit of money and bettering yourself you start to make more in the middle you start to lift yourself up like this now at this point all of your friends and family feel like they're getting left behind but at a certain point they are going to begin to realize that you lifting up lifts them up too because you can't be what you can't see and when you make more money you hire more people you spend more and you bring others along with you so don't think that it's selfish to grow realize that you're lifting up a whole group of others with you
