Transcript
00:00Your poverty stems from your friends, Finance Hacked warmly greets you and our dear friends.
00:07Recently, I met someone who asked me about issues within his circle of friends.
00:13He said that there is a friend he has known for many years, yet this friend always brings
00:19negative energy. He was unsure whether he should sever the relationship.
00:24He recounted that a few years ago he had many entrepreneurial ideas, but each time this
00:31friend would dash his hopes, causing him to give up on all of them. Now, looking back,
00:38similar projects carried out by others have yielded great profits, leaving him deeply regretful.
00:46I told him that of course he should cut ties, as friends like that must be avoided.
00:51The fact that many people remain trapped in poverty is actually related to the friends
00:57they choose to associate with. The reason I speak so bluntly is because I want everyone
01:03to understand one thing, whether online or in society, if you say you like the poor,
01:10people will love you, but if you say you like the rich, they will scold you as a money grabber
01:15who despises the poor. Everyone talks about wanting to help the poor, and entrepreneurs often preach
01:23this too, but the truth is that only when you help the rich, the people with money, will your life
01:29improve, giving you the opportunity to advance and become wealthy. After all, only those with money
01:36have the capability to pay for your intellect and labour. Therefore, this is not me being pragmatic,
01:43it is simply the reality. If you want to escape poverty, first you must change the value system
01:51that has brainwashed you for so many years. Today, I want to speak about a topic that can affect
01:57everyone's life, making friends. This applies not only to finding a boyfriend or girlfriend,
02:05but also to choosing close friends and even your clients. If you are single and looking for love,
02:11you must watch this entire video. If you are just beginning to learn how to make money or are
02:18venturing into entrepreneurship without much success, you should definitely watch till the end,
02:25because the latter half of this video might change your destiny. But before we get into the main content,
02:33I want to emphasise that this channel specialises in sharing the wealth-building mindset for entrepreneurs,
02:38investors, investors, and those aspiring for wealth. If you want to receive this knowledge for free,
02:46please subscribe to my channel and turn on notifications. I sincerely wish that anyone
02:53who likes this video will soon achieve financial freedom. If this video is useful, I hope you will not
03:01hesitate to share it so that many others can benefit. Without further ado, let's get straight to the main
03:08issue. First of all, you must understand the importance of your environment. Everyone wants
03:15to become a millionaire or billionaire. Everyone desires financial freedom, but that is just the
03:22result. Many people hope that their income will increase three to five times, but that too is merely the
03:30result. So, where do results come from? Results come from behavior. Behavior creates results. My behavior
03:42creates my life. Jack Ma's behavior produced his results. So, where does behavior come from?
03:52Behavior originates from mindset. Mindset determines behavior and behavior determines results.
04:02A person is poor because they possess a poor mindset. Robert Kiyosaki used the images of the rich dad
04:10and the poor dad to illustrate this point. Within each of us, there exist two types of mindsets,
04:17one is that of the rich and the other is that of the poor. If you follow the poor dad's mindset,
04:24you will remain poor, but if you follow the rich dad's mindset, you will become wealthy.
04:31For example, when you are doing something and face a major challenge, the poor mindset will say,
04:38you can't do it, you don't have the capability. If you listen to that, you'll give up and live a
04:44negative life. Yet, inside you there is another voice, a positive one, that says, believe in yourself,
04:53you can do it. Ultimately, whichever voice you choose to heed is the person you will become.
05:01How do the poor mindset and the rich mindset differ? A poor person sees a designer bag and says,
05:08I can't afford it, while a rich person sees it and thinks, how can I buy it? When the poor say I can't
05:17afford it, they immediately fall into a negative mindset, become insecure, and remain poor because
05:24they dare not act. Meanwhile, when a rich person wants something, they think positively, what do I
05:31need to do to buy it? And then find ways to earn money through selling, entrepreneurship, and investing.
05:40They take action to earn money and achieve their goals. The poor often say, I don't have money to
05:48start a business. What if I lose money? That is the poor mindset. So what about the rich?
05:57Ask Jack Ma before he started his business, did he have money? He said he did not.
06:06So what should he do? He said, then start a business. If you ask, what if you lose money?
06:15He replied, what if you don't earn any money? Do you see what I mean? The mindsets of the poor and
06:24the rich are completely opposite because mindset is formed by the environment. Remember this,
06:31the environment determines your mindset, the mindset determines your behavior, and behavior
06:37determines the outcome. For example, in Asia many people study English for a long time without
06:43becoming proficient, but what if you were taken to England? Without needing to study. You would
06:51naturally know how to speak from a young age. I believe that anyone can immediately understand
06:58this because the environment has changed. So, do you know why you are still poor? Because
07:06all the friends around you are poor, all possessing the poor mindset. Being around them only makes
07:13you poorer. Only when you step into a new environment can you change your destiny.
07:20That year, I spent a lot of money to attend courses on making money. In one class, I heard a saying that
07:28miraculously changed my life. It's better to be poor in a group of rich people than to be rich in a group
07:36of poor people. Because if you are rich among the poor, you will gradually become poorer,
07:42but if you are poor among the rich, you will gradually become wealthier. In other words,
07:49whoever you keep company with, you will become like them. So, what kind of people should we associate
07:55with? You must definitely stay with people who possess a rich mindset. Firstly, they have tangible
08:04results, they are truly wealthy, without dispute. If they started from nothing and earned millions or
08:11tens of millions of dollars, they are certainly worth learning from. Secondly, even if they do not
08:19currently have money, they have a positive mindset. Are full of energy, have dreams, the ambition to start
08:27a business, and a pioneering spirit. These are exactly the people who possess a rich mindset.
08:34So, which kind of people should you not associate with? Firstly, those who are poor, heavily indebted,
08:44and always carry negative energy. When you say you have dreams, they claim you're being deceived,
08:51when you say you're studying, they say you're being brainwashed. This type of person must be avoided at all
08:59costs. If you stay near them, your energy will only be dragged down. Whenever you have a dream,
09:07they will join forces to douse your enthusiasm. Remember this, those who always douse your dreams
09:15are the ones who have no dreams. If you befriend them and constantly interact, you will surely be
09:23affected, and if you choose someone like that as your life partner, then congratulations, your life
09:29is essentially over, and you should never dream of becoming rich. I am not threatening you, this is the
09:37truth, not a joke. In life, the choices we make are far more important than mere effort. If effort alone
09:47was enough for success, then construction workers, who work the hardest, would be the richest people
09:53in the world, but that is not the case. Remember, in life there are for most important choices.
10:02The first choice is selecting the right life partner. If a woman chooses the wrong man, her life is
10:09essentially ruined. If a man chooses the wrong wife, not only is his life ruined, but it also affects
10:16three generations of his ancestors. Many people, before finding the right partner, had nothing.
10:25History is full of examples of emperors who started from nothing, Liu Bang, Liu Bei, and Zhu Yuanjong.
10:34Anyone who understands history surely knows that Liu Bang, before marrying Liu Shi, was nothing more than
10:41an unknown wanderer, but after marrying her he immediately became the founding emperor of the
10:47Han dynasty. Liu Bei fought for over 30 years without securing a fixed territory, but after marrying
10:55Lady Sun he captured Jingju and established the Shu Han state. Zhu Yu Anjong married Ma Xiuying and rose
11:03from a humble background to establish the Ming dynasty. Secondly, choose the right environment.
11:09Who you are doesn't matter as much as the environment you're in because that environment will determine
11:16the future you become. People should associate with others who have similar intelligence and
11:22capabilities. If the disparity is too great, they will feel slighted by anything you do, and you will
11:30feel disadvantaged. The poorer one is, the more sensitive and easily hurt they become, even before anything
11:38begins, you already have to expend effort to console them. Whether in daily communication or in marriage,
11:47never choose someone who is too far removed from you. The rich should not love the poor, that is a natural
11:54law. Anyone who violates this law will face misfortune. A beautiful but poor girl, if she marries a rich man,
12:04is essentially having her genes bought, not her mindset. But the poor's mindset is like spiritual
12:12pollution, potentially negatively affecting the rich's mindset. Between them, there is always a
12:20difference as stark as water and fire, making it very difficult to harmonize. Both sides find each other
12:28extremely unpleasant. Mutual compatibility is not only about economic conditions but more importantly about
12:36similarity in spirit and mindset. If not, life will become extremely miserable. If a rich person
12:45socializes with a poor person, in most cases, they will be taken advantage of. Furthermore, poor people
12:54often have a strong sense of pride, they are prone to look down on the rich due to their wounded self-esteem.
13:02Therefore, rich people generally do not want to associate with the poor because most of them only
13:07bring loss. Rich people should associate with those who have similar intelligence and mindsets,
13:14with a relatively balanced level of wealth, so that the relationship is worthwhile.
13:19Additionally, there is another case, both parties must understand the principle of equivalent exchange.
13:28Meaning that you receive as much as you put in. But only the wise truly understand this mindset,
13:36most do not grasp this principle. I have met many people on social media and interacted with thousands.
13:42There are those whom, no matter how much I help, cannot change, but there are also individuals who
13:51quietly follow guidance and succeed spectacularly without needing support, earning billions a year.
13:59Gradually, I understood one thing, it is all destiny, one must acknowledge fate rather than force it with
14:05human strength. Truly talented individuals always act in accordance with the times.
14:14Deoist philosophy does not emphasize human effort, while Confucian philosophy emphasizes human endeavor.
14:22Taoism represents the wisdom of nature, Confucianism the wisdom of the secular world,
14:28while Buddhism merely smiles and says,
14:30Do whatever you want, success or failure is just a trivial matter.
14:37Thirdly, choose the right mentor.
14:40The caliber of a teacher will determine the achievements of their students.
14:46Everyone needs a mentor to guide them.
14:49You learn to walk because someone teaches you, no one is born knowing how to walk.
14:54You learn to speak because someone instructs you, no one is born knowing how to talk.
15:02You learn to read thanks to someone teaching you, no one is born knowing how to read.
15:09So, what about making money?
15:12Did anyone teach you that?
15:15No, because from the start your parents did not know how to make money, so how could they teach you?
15:21All the teachers in school are employees, they can only teach you how to become a good employee.
15:29Therefore, you must find someone who can teach you how to start a business,
15:34how to invest, and how to become rich starting from nothing.
15:38Why do I always share these things?
15:41Because I have benefited from them.
15:44I want to share this knowledge to help more people.
15:48It's truly that simple.
15:49Fourth, choose the right customers.
15:53This is the key factor that determines whether you can become wealthy or not.
15:59Running a business without filtering your customers is like running with your eyes closed,
16:04extremely dangerous.
16:07The ability to protect assets is always many times greater than the ability to earn money.
16:12Most people only realise that asset protection is far more important after experiencing bankruptcy several times.
16:22It is easy to start a business, but hard to sustain it.
16:26People at a higher level do not do business with newcomers.
16:31They only work with those who already have a solid career because these people are already rich,
16:37possess many assets, and have strong networks, making business with them more profitable.
16:43Different environments and positions yield completely different values and assets.
16:49The choice is a hundred times more important than effort.
16:55If you still do not believe this, it proves that your vision is too narrow.
17:01Doing business without filtering customers is like running blindfolded, very dangerous.
17:06If you cannot understand the differences among customer groups,
17:11you will continually face difficulties in your business journey.
17:16Serve only the deserving customers.
17:20Don't take on every customer, some only waste your time or even cause trouble,
17:25so you don't need to serve them.
17:28A novice entrepreneur often accepts any customer.
17:32This is a rudimentary level and a foolish choice.
17:36Every customer has a completely different value, with significant disparities in quality.
17:44You must focus on quality customers and build a filtering system to attract only premium clients.
17:52Not only must our services be excellent,
17:54but the customers must also meet certain standards in order for a partnership to be viable.
18:00Not everyone who pays is a good customer, some only bring major inconveniences.
18:08If you serve them, they will cause trouble, complain, and even slander you, such is their nature.
18:16What you need to do is identify such people and keep them at a distance.
18:20Remember, not everyone's money is worth earning.
18:25Just as in love and marriage.
18:28It's not only necessary to become outstanding yourself, but also to choose a worthy partner,
18:35otherwise, your life will fall into tragedy.
18:38For example, you know that starting on YouTube is an inevitable trend of our times,
18:45just like those who were pioneers in real estate or e-commerce.
18:50You want to switch to learning about YouTube,
18:53but your girlfriend says that YouTube is merely an experimental field and very difficult to succeed in.
18:59That remark extinguished the flame of enthusiasm within you.
19:05A few years later, you break up with her because you realize the two of you are not compatible.
19:11At that moment, you look back and see that all those who ventured into YouTube became wealthy
19:17while you are filled with regret.
19:20This is the power of choice.
19:23There are many such stories.
19:25Now, you need to understand that the gap between people is not only about differences in mindset,
19:33personality, or intelligence, but also about boundaries that cannot be crossed.
19:40Don't try to make everyone understand you, you only need to find those who share your vision.
19:46An intelligent person must first learn to distinguish who is worth befriending and who should be avoided,
19:52because the relationships you build will determine your fate.
19:57Not everyone is qualified to be your customer.
20:00Customers are the connectors.
20:03If the connection is wrong, you will encounter trouble.
20:07On the contrary, the right connection will elevate you.
20:11Do not interact with unsuitable people, and do not serve those who are not worthy.
20:16If you do not set standards for filtering customers, you will be surrounded by poor quality,
20:24low-level customers, causing inconvenience and depleting both your spirit and finances.
20:31Even so, you might encounter fools, it's best not to mind them, nor to admonish them to avoid
20:37pointless debates, don't argue with fools, as it really isn't worth it.
20:43Let them think as they please.
20:45If you work with high-end customers, you will grow wealthier and enjoy a more favourable life.
20:53Focus on major deals that yield high profits.
20:58Remember that how you price your product is also a way to segment your customers.
21:04If you choose the wrong group, your life will hit a dead end.
21:08There is always a clear difference between people, don't let those who are unworthy cling to you.
21:13If you don't know how to filter customers and cannot do business with high-quality clients,
21:20your life will be full of difficulties.
21:23Don't waste time serving low-quality customers, because not only will you fail to make money,
21:29you'll also incur high risks, ethical issues, disputes, and even lawsuits may arise.
21:36Meanwhile, high-quality customers not only help you earn more money but also bring comfort to your work.
21:45So, what do you choose?
21:47A person of virtue will associate with others of virtue.
21:53Befriending the right people will help you minimise energy drain.
21:58Some people will deplete your life, but there are those who will help you grow.
22:03Effort is not as important as choice.
22:07Serve those who are of a higher calibre and don't try to teach those who are unwilling to learn.
22:12We only collaborate with and lead those who have the right worldview.
22:19Such people are few.
22:21Choose carefully and do not hastily include someone with a distorted mindset in your team.
22:26It will be a disaster.
22:29Don't think you can get close to mud without smelling it.
22:33Or assume you won't be affected by those with misguided thoughts.
22:37I'm sorry, but you will definitely be influenced.
22:43Conversely, if you surround yourself with good people, they will have a positive impact on you.
22:50Therefore, we should only associate with those who have sound values and immediately block out those who are unsuitable.
22:59The art of working is not as important as the art of choosing the right people.
23:03A leader initially has to learn how to work, but with experience, they move into the phase of choosing people, including selecting partners and customers.
23:16Anyone who lets emotions overwhelm them in choosing people will face misfortune throughout life.
23:23A good leader must always remain rational and proactive.
23:26People certainly have desires, but lust is the greatest barrier to an organization's development.
23:35When some people have overly strong desires, the overall balance is affected.
23:42If you continually indulge someone, they will become arrogant until they turn conceited, foolish, and their greed overshadows their rationality,
23:51leaving them to indulge while forgetting themselves.
23:54When there are too many people, everything becomes a game of envy.
24:01Everyone tries to play the roles they desire, everyone sings their own tale of tragic melodrama,
24:07everyone lets emotions take over, and everyone identifies with sorrow.
24:13Many people believe that their lack of success is due to insufficient capability or intellect.
24:19But in reality, the issue lies in their value system.
24:25A correct value system brings happiness, whereas a flawed one only brings disaster.
24:32First, discuss your value system and then move on to business.
24:38If there is agreement, we can continue to discuss further, if not, then there is no need to debate.
24:44Not everyone who gives you money is a customer you should serve.
24:50Only do business with those who are courteous and understanding.
24:54Those who are unworthy, you need not earn money from them.
24:58Many might ask, doesn't that mean you'll earn less money?
25:02Not at all, on the contrary, you will have customers who are rational, easy to work with,
25:09require low service costs, and communicate effectively.
25:13Alignment is very important.
25:15The distance between people is not as simple as the distance between a monkey and a human.
25:20It is a huge difference in psychology and perception.
25:24Each person lives in a different world, with only superficial similarities.
25:31Do not befriend fools, nor respond to their insults.
25:35Doing so is not only meaningless but may also invite disaster upon you.
25:41The natural world is inherently very harsh.
25:45Humans cannot live without affection, and neither can society.
25:49This warmth is the thread that connects us and also the beauty of life.
25:55But overall, we must respect the laws of nature, where only those who adapt can survive.
26:02Stay away from those with narrow mindsets, for they do not even recognize their own mistakes
26:08and will drag you down with them.
26:11You must definitely keep your distance from petty people, the unlucky, and the evil.
26:17Don't think you can control them, instead, cultivate yourself.
26:23You cannot subdue them, just like jumping into lava only to seek a path to death.
26:30A noble person never risks associating with petty individuals.
26:35Friendship is not a joke, and I am not joking with you.
26:40Always be cautious and give your utmost effort.
26:43Choose friends who either have achievements or dreams, and most importantly,
26:50those with a financial mindset.
26:53That is the standard for choosing friends.
26:57Befriend wealthy people, choose those who have achieved results in life,
27:02and accompany those with dreams, passionate ideals, and relentless progress.
27:07Frankly speaking, choose positive people to be your friends,
27:13avoid negative ones, for with them you will be dragged down.
27:18Conversely, if you surround yourself with righteous people,
27:22they will lift you to a new level.
27:25This is the truth.
27:27I hope today's insights will help everyone.
27:30Whether it's choosing a boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife, or simply a friend.
27:39Selecting the right person is extremely important.
27:43Remember that no one can become rich without changing their circle of relationships.
