Money doesn't come to you when you're gripping. It comes when you relax, and almost nobody is relaxed about money.
In this clip, Lewis Howes and Jay Shetty talk about the difference between making easy money and making money easy, and why chasing the quick win is the fastest way to lose everything you've built.
Jay opens up about delivering newspapers for £2 a street at 14, and the belief that came out of it that money is hard, and that people who have it must be doing something shady. Lewis spent a year and a half on his sister's couch in 2008 with no degree, no skills he could name, and student loan debt. Both of them found their way out through the same first habit, and it isn't a budget.
Learn about why your parents' arguments are still setting your salary, what every billionaire Lewis has interviewed says when he asks how they keep creating wealth, and the currency you already have that people with money will pay for.
