Living a Rich Life

The Things I Value the Most in Life — And You Should Too

I feel that I am the richest person in the whole wide world

My life has not been easy, but I wouldn’t change a thing. Every struggle, every challenge, it all shaped me.

Looking back, I see the lessons hidden in each hardship. I learned early. The way we speak, walk, think, and respond, everything is shaped in our early years. A bad character builds a bad person.

Money vs. Time

Time is the most valuable thing we have. Once it is gone, it never comes back.

If given a choice between money and time, the decision shouldn’t take a second.

In five years, you could create memories with loved ones, achieve lifetime goals, find love, reclaim your health, or even build a million-dollar business.

No amount of money can buy back a single moment.

To realize the value of a year, ask a student who failed.

To realize the value of a month, ask a mother of a premature baby.

To realize the value of a day, ask a soldier standing guard at the border.
