They say the alcohol industry is down 40% because Gen Z doesn't drink.
It's probably because us millennials drank until 5am, went to work at 7am and now we're all running marathons, drinking water, eating organic food and going to bed at 9pm
My definition of rich is pretty simple.
- Never worry about paying bills
- Have time for the people I love
- Never panic over money again
An ambulance is noise... until it's at your door.
A crying baby is annoying... until you're the one longing for one.
Dishes are a chore... until you're eating alone.
Your dad's stories get old... until you'd give anything to hear them again.
Perspective: The life you're rushing through is the life someone else lost. Slow down and notice it while you still can.....
Gratitude isn't about having everything go right; it's about realizing that even the messy and exhausting moments are sacred gifts you will never get back.

Being a millennial is wild.
On paper, I'm 34.
At work, I'm 56.
At happy hour, I'm 22.
After 9 PM, I'm 87.
When I get up off the floor, I'm 104.
But when early 2000s music comes on, I'm 17 again.
When you lose weight:
• Your eyes look bigger
• Your face looks sharper
• Your jawline shows
• Your nose looks smaller
• Your features stand out
• Your vibe improves
• Excess fat disappears
• Clothes fit better
• Confidence goes up
• People treat you differently
Lose the weight. Everything changes.
Control your lust, and you'll see how many women offer nothing but looks.
Control your anger, and you'll realize most things aren't that deep.
Control your wallet, and you'll understand your mother is the only woman who loves you unconditionally.
A man who controls his impulses becomes untouchable.
No lies. No manipulation. No chaos.
“I love working out because it's an hour of good music, moving my body, and getting all sweaty.”
Once you start thinking like this, everything changes.
12 Golden Rules
1. Give, but don't let yourself be used.
2. Love, but don't let your heart be abused.
3. Trust, but don't trust blindly.
4. Listen, but don't lose your own voice.
5. Care, but don't forget yourself.
6. Forgive, but don't invite the same disrespect twice.
7. Help, but don't carry people who refuse to walk.
8. Be kind, but don't tolerate being mistreated.
9. Be patient, but don't wait forever for someone to change.
10. Respect others, but never sacrifice your self-respect.
11. Be humble, but never make yourself small.
12. Stay loyal, but don't stay where you're not valued.
Just a reminder that walking counts as exercise. It doesn't get enough credit because there's no expensive equipment, subscription, or fancy product to sell you. Just go outside and move.
Imagine spending your best years working nonstop just to enjoy life for a few years when you're old. That's one hell of a trade.
