Agree with Kelvin...while pursuing your dreams, one needs to be aware of your own strengths and weakness. Many people fall into self denial mode when they cannot achieve what they want, blaming this, blaming that.

[@mjmf1430]

The difference between top 1% and the rest is due in large part to luck. For every Jack Ma, there are millions who are rejected with no home runs, even with similar efforts. Being at the right place, the right time, the right era, having the right connections, etc are just as important. Even then, the odds of failing is in fact usually high due to life’s ever changing parameters.

[@andyho2059]

I believe the real top 1% think differently, while majority of ppl think logically, top 1% just do. They don’t think, they don’t try to apply logic whether it will work or risky. They just find a passion, think of what they want and how to do it.

“Thinking is the hardest work there is, that’s why not many engage in it” this quote is something that I find very true

[@andyho2059]

@@learninvestearnsaveAgree! Every success starts from the mind. But it’s a fine line between thinking and overthinking imo. Most ppl over think and eventually give up from even trying. Sometimes the only way is when u have no other ways.

@@andyho2059 you overestimate most ppl 😆 the only thinking most ppl do is finding a gd excuse, not thinking in the way you are saying. I know because I also have a lot of excuses 😆😆😆

@@learninvestearnsave There’s a reason why people find excuses, sometimes the love just ain’t enough 😂

Everyone can dream big lah but to make it big, yr dreams need to translate into realistic use case(s) that ppl find value in

Wasn't this how Kelvin approached wife hunting? 😂

[@CyChong-vm2uf]

How many of that 1% have a net to fall back on (ie family wealth) vs those that who dont. Probably less than 0.01% is the latter. Teachers very tired is very true especially those with family

[@spinvalve]

Funny. If you read Eric's post as a gambling addict, it gives out very different vibe 💀

[@learninvestearnsave]

Haha 😂

[@danielchong1881]

Some people can afford to keep failing

[@sctan4004]

Well said, Eric!

[@learninvestearnsave]

Thank you 😊 😊

[@angelakoh324]

Indeed great wisdom and I agree strongly!
Am impressed that you can hang on for 3 years. Happy that all turn out well in the end.

Every experience is a learning for us to grow and be smarter. So I wouldn’t view it as a waste of time.

[@learninvestearnsave]

@@angelakoh324 yes haha I was just joking 🙃

[@isakeng007]

I think the fear of taking risks is the real issue. Not the fear of failure. The average guy doesn't have the cash to back them up unlike the top 1%. The downside risks will then look much bigger.

[@learninvestearnsave]

It is not really about having cash once you have a stable income, the ppl around me don’t want to take ANY risks at all.

[@allanlee6075]

Sounds exactly like the 99%.

How is the teaching software?

What is that software, please share

I hear that phrase from Mark Cuban.

[@michtan7774]

The video is so short, I think you can discuss this topic in greater depth. I believe each of you can discuss about your individual experience right?

[@learninvestearnsave]

Will you want to listen to such a long video?

[@michtan7774]

@@learninvestearnsaveDon't get me wrong, it's not a criticism, it's actually a compliment, because this topic caught my attention, which is a very good topic itself and I was prepared to 洗耳恭听, so when I enjoyed it so much, it ended abruptly, so it's kind of 意犹未尽.... Hope you understand what I mean mean...lol. 🤣

[@learninvestearnsave]

@@michtan7774 haha no I didn’t think that way…it’s a gd suggestion, just wondering how many ppl will actually listen to a long video on this topic. Maybe we should put a poll 🤔

[@michtan7774]

@@learninvestearnsave yes, why not. In my opinion, it's a good topic that it caught my attention..

[@DonkiDonkey]

One day I will be top 1% like Eric.
