After years of cold winter floors, you decided to put some of your profits aside and opt for heated floors in your new home.
More money affords better things. Upgrade those undershirts. You deserve it.

Yes, your thoughts, beliefs, and assumptions significantly shape your experiences, acting as a filter through which you interpret the world and react to events.
Here’s a more detailed explanation:
Beliefs as a Filter:
Your beliefs, which are deeply held convictions about yourself, others, and the world, act as a lens through which you interpret events and situations.
Assumptions and Expectations:
Assumptions are unexamined beliefs, and expectations are formed based on these assumptions and past experiences.
Impact on Perception:
Expectations play a crucial role in shaping your perception of the world, influencing how you interpret sensory information and make sense of your environment.
Thoughts and Emotions:
Your thoughts influence your emotions, which in turn affect your behavior and choices.
The Power of Mindset:
Cultivating a positive mindset, challenging negative thoughts, and harnessing the power of visualization can help you take control of your life and create a more fulfilling future.
Examples:
If you believe you are unlovable, you might interpret interactions with others negatively, even if they are kind.
If you assume that everyone is against you, you might react defensively to situations that are not actually threatening.
If you believe that you are always going to fail, you might not even try to achieve your goals.

Very true! Changing the mindset is different for each person. For some people it’s an aha moment. For others, it’s gradual. And some people never change at all.
We each have our own path. And unfortunately, no one can walk it for us. You have to go through the pain of looking at who you really are.
Personal develoment is a long, difficult journey, but it’s worth it.

While travelling and trading overseas, your backpack with your gear disappears—your laptop and portable modem have been stolen.
No worries. All your stuff is password-protected, and backed up in the cloud. Also, because you’re no longer as wet behind the ears as you used to be, you always travel with a backup of everything important. And waiting for you in the hotel lobby safe deposit box is another trading setup: laptop, modem, mouse, etc.
Stress, be gone!

I’ve been foolish, let me guard down, and my stuff has been stolen.
Other times, there was nothing I could do.
Even when you cover all your bases, you can still get caught out there.
For such occasions, a backup would be a nice luxury. Especially for something as important as trading equipment.
Sure, if your stuff is stolen, you can go to the police. But the chances of getting your stuff back are slim to none. Chances are that they might not even care—they have bigger things to worry about.
Just take the loss, fetch your backup that you prepared in advance, and move on.

Of course, it depends on your goals and what you want out of life. But, if you have tons of money, but your health is terrible, what’s the point?
I understand sacrifices must be made in order to build the foundation.
But once the ball is rolling, I think it’d be good to lose some weight and get healthy.

You cross paths with some people you knew a while back. They giggle at you because they think you’re still making $35k/yr like back in the day.
But you don’t have to confront them. Things done changed. Little do they know you’re pulling $35k/month, now.
