Never ask advice of someone with whom you wouldn’t want to trade places. - Benjamin P. Hardy

Be, then do, then have.

In his book The Powers of Two, Joshua Wolf Shenk said, “When you speak of what you want, and even one person hears, it may begin a generative loop.”15

As times get good, people become less focused and less committed. They stop having a bigger Future Self they’re driving toward. They get stuck in short-term dopamine loops. Their actions and behaviors lead to unnecessary bad times. The law of the harvest. You reap what you sow.
