The Darius Foroux Show: Mindset, Business, Money Darius Foroux

I have a love/hate relationship with impatience. 



I love it because it has helped me to accomplish things in my career. When something needs to be done, I do it immediately. I just can't wait.



But that approach is not helpful when it comes to your finances. To build proper wealth, you need patience.



You can read about investing and compounding as much as you want. But unless you don't have the patience to let your money compound, you can never reap the benefits.



This is something I had to learn. To all my fellow impatient-natured people, learn the art of patience. It will help you immensely in life.

Essentially, making money from your passion is all about solving a problem or need. And getting paid for it. Whether it’s through a product or service, your focus should always be on providing value to your customers.



Look at the Patagonia brand. The founder, Yvon Chouinard, saw a need for high-quality outdoor gear that was environmentally friendly and decided to fill that gap. By focusing on providing value, he was able to build a loyal customer base and become recognized as an industry leader.



In my case, I started writing and publishing free articles on self-improvement that people found to be useful. Eventually, they subscribed to my newsletter. Some folks bought my books and courses, which is how I earn a living.



On this journey of making money, stay authentic.



Your passion is what sets you apart from others in your field. Don’t try to imitate someone else or follow the latest trends just to make money. People are drawn to authenticity, which will help you create a unique brand.



In this episode, I share more about the importance of authenticity.

The German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche wrote this in his book, The Gay Science, about purpose:



“Gradually, man has become a fantastic animal that has to fulfill one more condition of existence than any other animal: man has to believe, to know, from time to time why he exists; his race cannot flourish without a periodic trust in life–without faith in reason in life.”



Nietzche said that we need to have some kind of trust in life. Just surviving, eating, working, and procreating are not enough.



The purpose is the compass that guides us through life. It’s not about achieving grandiose goals or accumulating material wealth.



It’s about finding fulfillment in what we do and making a difference.

Smartphones have become an extension of ourselves. We use them for almost everything - from staying connected with friends and family, to managing our schedules and even for entertainment.

A recent study showed that the average person spends around three hours a day on their phone, which adds up to a staggering amount of 45 days a year.

People are glued to their screens most of the time. There’s a constant need to check notifications, scroll through social media feeds, and respond to messages. This isn’t just bad for our mental health. It also distracts us from doing and finishing our work on time.

For the sake of our personal well-being and productivity, we need to reduce the time spent on our phones.

In this episode, I talk about how you can do that.

Worrying is a natural human response to uncertainty. But when we allow our worries to consume our thoughts at all hours of the day, they can quickly become overwhelming.

One effective strategy to manage this is by only giving yourself five minutes to worry and sulk over negative emotions. Call this your 5 minutes of worry time.

Worrying is a natural part of life. We all have things that cause us stress and anxiety, whether it’s work, relationships, or just the daily grind. And sometimes, it can feel overwhelming to try and push those worries away. But having a bit of time to allow ourselves to worry can also be helpful.

So during your 5 minutes of “worry time,” allow yourself to think about all the things that are causing you stress.

Give yourself permission to worry. By acknowledging our worries, we can better manage and control them. But once the time is up, move on to something else.
