- The real you is always there. Before the thoughts enter it. Before the lies obscure it. Before you are convinced you are either one of “us” or one of “them”.
The real you is neither. Test every thought you have. Your thoughts are not you. They are your children. But we forget that children often need to be disciplined. Else they will test your boundaries and slowly take over the sense of what the “real you” is. You will forget the real Self that has always been there. Don’t let that happen.
I've not ever read James Altucher but I'll now start to. I enjoyed this piece quite a bit. I'm thinking the homeowner lie is just a bit of bitterness though. Should you buy a home with zero down and expect to make money when you sell it? No probably not. But if you have the capital and choose your property wisely, there are plenty of examples of this being a worthwhile investment. Alright, I'm off to lie... I mean work. Have a great day all.
