Had a potentially major realization yesterday...
"If you can't handle rich man's rituals, stop pretending to be one"
If I'm not willing to do the difficult things that legitimately rich people do - run a business, make cold calls, negotiate, escape my comfort zone - then I shouldn't mentally masturbate with cars I want or fantasize with real estate, since there's no realistic way for me to make that big money by going the traditional way. I also shouldn't buy fancy clothes or spring for the upper income car, even if I'm making decent amounts of money through a typical 9-5.
Hey Ampersnd, to me it seems like you are limiting yourself with this belief about "the difficult things that legitimately rich people do". There are as many ways to become rich as there are grains of sand in the world. So there are many ways that do not include these "difficult things". Sure these ways may include other tasks, but they lead to riches without the specific "difficult things that legitimately rich people do".
Maybe just something to think about
Wishing you success in the grind against fear
