"You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards" – Steve Jobs

Your opinion is completely worthless if you're not worth at least +10M cash and have positively impacted at least a couple thousand human beings. The whole point of what I’m saying is this: when you reach a certain level in your career—whether that’s $10M or $100M—you start to realize that a lot of your drive, motivation, and discipline came from a place that wasn’t entirely healthy. If your life goal is to “become a millionaire, or even a billionaire,” "become famous," you might actually get there… only to realize the view from the top cost you your health, your relationships, and most of your life. Chasing goals tied only to vanity or money is a bottomless pit. When you’ve gone through this journey, made the money, built the brand, and tasted the (semi) fame… it forces you to rethink everything. It pushes you closer to your actual purpose. At some point, the goal changes from “I want to make a billion dollars” to “I want to help a billion people with X.” And ironically, by doing that — you might end up worth a billion anyway.
