SOG EP 1624 BONUS: BILLIONAIRE Reveals Key Habits of THE RICH! Do This NOW to Make Money & Build Wealth | Michael Rubin

0:00Hi, my name is Lewis Howes and welcome to the Daily Motivation Show.

0:11I know you know people who are billionaires and super famous that are happy, that are truly happy and grateful human beings. And a lot that aren't. And a lot, probably more, that are stressed out, overwhelmed, bad relationships, you know, constantly living in fight or flight or competition versus collaboration. what would you say are the habits of the millionaires, billionaires who are successful that you know who are actually healthy, which is probably a smaller percentage, over the ones that have it all but are empty inside? I'll give you one example that's jumping to the top of mind for me, which I don't think I've ever talked about before, but it's super interesting.

0:53And all of my good friends know this about me. You could get a lot of people would say they know this about me. I want all of my friends to do great and do better than me in any way they can because I'm living my dream. So why would I know what I want to do great around me? A lot of people feel like they're in competition. It's one thing, you're playing football, kill your competitor. You're playing basketball, kill your competitor. If I'm in business and there's someone I'm competing against, that's a different story. But I'm talking about in life, I want my friends to do amazing. I have certain friends who are like, hey, if you could make X or I could make 50 times that, I'd rather you make X because like I'm good and I'm happy.

1:30I'm having a great time and I'm living my dream. So I think it's the healthy people want the best for the others around them. One of the things I see a lot of time is like cultures of like people trying to bring people down. I hate that. I'm always saying this to like my daughter because she's 18 and she's like, you know, she's developing the same way I'm still developing. I'm always like, you want to always be inclusive, you know, bring everyone together. People want to do great. You know, that's what I say is an interesting observation is a lot of people don't want people to do great around them.

1:57That's like really weird to me. You think that's what makes them, you know, stressed and miserable or unhappy or have broken relationships is because of that? Look, people think it's just so hard to say. I'm going to get ridiculed for saying this. But people think money fixes things. It doesn't. Okay. You're either going to make the most of your life or you're not. So obviously with money, you have more access to so many things. Okay. But, you know, I tell you, I outwork just about anybody. I'm still working 18 hours a day, 350 days a year. And I love it. And that, for me, is fun. And I enjoy it.

2:30And I'm learning and I'm growing from it. You know, people see, like, oh, they see the white party. And, you know, great. So I do, you know, three fun, you know, I do the white party, this Finax, the World War Party, and together, the Reform Alliance, which, you know, when the founders of, we do the, you know, we started last year, the gals. So we do three big events a year. So those are fun moments people see. But my life is about grinding day in and day out. And I like that. That's not every day. Yeah, yeah. The grinding's every day. No, I mean, the grind's every day. Three days a year. Yeah, of course.

2:53Do I do a fun Christmas vacation? Yeah, yeah. I used to be able to make fun of my friends publicly. Now we have to do it privately because I get ready to cool if I make fun of my friends now. I think a lot of people that want to learn from you or someone that's like you with a massive net worth, big businesses, all these different things, I think a lot of people want to know, how can I do that or my own way of doing that in my life while also being healthy and happy? Because I see a lot of people get burned out, celebrities who are young, not know how to manage the success of the fame, billionaires go bankrupt, all these are just do things that maybe don't align with the values.

3:27So I guess I'm curious about, do you think it's possible to be actually healthy and happy, have good relationships with your family and friends and be uber successful? And if so, what does it take? What are the key habits that your friends who are that do on a consistent basis? Yeah, I think it's 100 % doable and a lot of people do it. You know, look, the thing with a lot of really successful people is like what makes me also does make me a little bit different is, you know, barely having been out of high school, not having gone to college, not reading. Like I'm not an intellectual. I'm like, you know, I'm kind of like a, you know, just like a street smart.

4:06You know, I still feel like a kid even though I'm not. That's like a lot of really successful people. They're naturally they're awkward. They're not like they're just like they're a little uncomfortable in their own skin. you've like you know you've you've gone out you've had all the success and you you're not sure how to deal with it like to be like still like a normal logical rational person i'm still like you know i look i see the greatest people in the world do great with handling i see a lot of people that get you know huge success and you know it's really hard for them i say like you know keep the eye on the prize just like you also like for the way you're asking the question it's a really small percentage of people they're super lucky like appreciate that and like look i know it's easier to say that but like you know people say to me all the time like anyone who stops me always try to be as nice as could be and people say like why it was like that i'm like because i'm lucky if i'm not i'm a bad person it's a problem if i'm not like that right that's probably what keeps you fulfilled and happy yeah and like i'm all i'm rooting for everybody too yeah i'm rooting for everyone to do great i think that's a key differentiator because most people that i think are unhappy with success or with what they have at a big level they're competitive in terms of They don't want to see their friends and they think of more, it's when I have to win and you have to lose versus how can we all win together?

5:18Yeah. Look, I know a fair amount of people who've gone down to business because you just, you meet a lot of people and, you know, and a lot of them have handled it great and some haven't, you know, and it just depends who it is. It just depends who that person is. The thing I like to see by the time is someone who can do something, who can do it two or three times. like you get one success, it could be luck. You get two or three successes, that's proven skill. By the way, you win one Superbowl, you're really good, but you know, you win a couple, you're really special. That's another level.
