I’m not sure if you’ve noticed, but there has been more and more rich Asians.
Not as rich as the “Crazy Rich Asians” you see in the movie, but still pretty damn rich.
And especially in Vancouver, where I live, you see them driving around in Lamborghinis, Rolls Royce, Range Rovers, Bentleys, etc.
Have you ever wondered…
How did they get so rich?
Because, let me tell you, we weren't always rich. In fact, China was one of the poorest countries just half a century ago.
So what changed?
Well, there are many factors (economic and political) but today I want to tell you about a much more personal and psychological reason.
It stems from a piece of ancient Chinese wisdom.
In Chinese, it’s called “吃苦” (pronounced chi ku).
Translated into English, it literally means “eat bitter”.
I know it doesn’t sound too pleasant, but trust me - the results are amazing.
This is the spirit that many Chinese embodied throughout the years and I believe it’s what separated them from the rest of the world.
And I think we have a lot to learn from this.
But what does “eat bitter” really mean?
To put it simply, it’s a mindset.
It’s a mindset of enduring pain.
It’s a mindset of doing the things you know you should do, even when you don’t want to.
It’s a mindset of taking risks towards a better life, even when it’s terrifying.
With this mindset, the Chinese were able to immigrate to America, endure decades of discrimination, find the few opportunities available, and capitalize on those opportunities.
With the mindset of “eating bitter”, they were able to create wealth from even the meekest of circumstances.
But you might be thinking, why does “eating bitter” work?
Simple.
Think about what the opposite of “eating bitter” is.
It’s to “crave sweets”.
It’s to go after the short-term gains, the temporary pleasures, the empty rewards.
If the Chinese lived by this philosophy, all they would be doing is eating donuts, checking twitter, and watching Netflix...
Not the best recipe for success.
So, what does any of this have to do with you?
A lot.
See, you don’t have to be Chinese to “eat bitter” or to reap the rewards of “eating bitter” - because all it takes is a decision.
All it takes is a decision that you’re willing to do whatever it takes to create a better life.
To create a better life for your family, or your friends, or that one person who believed in you, or maybe… just yourself.
But all it takes is a decision to “eat bitter” today.
Now, I’ve gotten a lot of questions from my fans around the world asking me:
“Okay Dan, so I’m ready to eat bitter, but what should I do?”
And the answer I give them is always the same…
