Elon Musk: Work twice as hard as others.

Elon Musk, along with many other entrepreneurs like Mark Cuban follow the law of action. They say, instead of planting just 10 seeds, you need to plant 20, or 30, or 50, and work like hell. Work twice as hard as others. 

Mark Cuban Advises 20 Somethings: Live Cheaply.

Mark Cuban followed his friends to Dallas in 1981 after getting his bachelor's degree from Indiana University.

He remembers that when he first moved into their apartment, he didn't even have his own room. Things were so cramped that he'd come in at night after bartending and have to sleep on the couch or, if that was taken, the floor. He kept his few belongings in a heap.

Cuban spent his 20s living cheaply and investing money in his first business, software distributor MicroSolutions. When he was 31, he sold the company to H&R Block for $6 million. The $2 million he personally made on the deal put him on the path to becoming the billionaire investor, entrepreneur, and Dallas Mavericks owner he is today. 

In his book "How to Win at the Sport of Business," Cuban writes that if you're in your 20s, you don't need to share a gross apartment with a bunch of friends. But, he says, you should live cheaply, even if you happen to be doing well.

Paying off bills, debt, and establishing a nest egg is far more important than indulging in a sprawling home or high-end fashion, he says.

"It doesn't matter where you live," Cuban writes. "It doesn't matter how you live. It doesn't matter what car you drive. It doesn't matter what kind of clothes you wear."

If you use your 20s to pay off student-loan debt, avoid credit-card debt, and build savings, you'll thank yourself later.

"The more you stress over bills, the more difficult it is to focus on your goals," he says.

Whether you're using your 20s to build your own business or establish a rewarding career, "the cheaper you can live, the greater your options," Cuban writes.

Dietitian Pro-Tip: Eat a Salad Everyday For Lunch For 7 Days (Video)

Eat a Salad Everyday

Dietitian Pro-Tip: Eat a salad everyday for lunch, for a weeks time (7 days).
I have been doing this for about a month+ now and have seen amazing results. You're going to have clearer thoughts, more focus (at work), better digestion, smoother bowel movements, feel lighter and have more energy, etc.

Why is this the case? These things will happen because most of us do not get nearly enough fiber in our diets, nor do we get enough of the antioxidants and micronutrients found in the vegetables/fruits that you are going to be eating in abundance once you start eating a salad everyday for lunch. Also we don't eat enough whole, raw, uncooked vegetables. A salad will help accomplish this.

The key is having:
1) VARIETY: Each day you could have a different salad, or make small variations. Eat salads with different kinds of fruits (avocado anyone?), vegetables, and beans/legumes/quinoa for protein.
2) A LARGE bed of green leafy veggies: (spring mix, mixed greens, kale, spinach, baby kale, baby spinach, micro-greens, romaine, mustard, etc. Get the idea??)
3) A HEALTHY dressing: I make a Dr. Sebi dressing consisting of olive oil, bit of maple syrup, cayenne pepper, sea salt and lemon juice! It's delicious haha ( Emoticono upset ) You can make homemade dressing or choose a low-fat dressing.

At first it may be difficult so you can eat it with a slice of whole grain bread (I use Dave's Killer Bread), or tortilla if you don't feel full, but eventually you will start feeling electric!

For salad ideas you should check out Pinterest(.)com they have thousand of salad ideas. You may add fruits, red onions, bell peppers, a bit of broccoli, carrots, chickpeas, basil, kale, blueberries, diced apples, whatever you like. Personally I put a lot of tomatoes, red onions, quinoa for protein, lots of avocado for healthy fats, and kale.

It's spring time so it's time to spring into action and feel ALIVE AND ELECTRIC. Bless up.

P.S. if you don't complete the 7 days you HAVE TO START OVER haha.

Are You Ready For the Coming Age of Abundance?

Movie Review: The Salt of the Earth

This documentary film comes highly recommended. The entire film is in English, French, and some Brazilian Portuguese but it has lots of subtitles. It details the life-work of social documentary photographer and photojournalist named Sebastião Salgado. The photos are so touching and moving, during the film I viscerally connected with them. Some of the photos uplifted me while others made me feel somber and sad. I stared in awe during some photos and while peering at others I found myself turning away in disgust at what I saw. The film is really amazing because it allows Sebastião Salgado to narrate and explain each photo, the background, the story of each person, tribe, group, massacre, genocide, etc that is depicted.
     Without giving too much away, he film remains intriguing, inspiring and amazing throughout, but it goes from neutral, to grim and challenging, to renewing, refreshing and inspiring. I caught it at an indie theater in Los Angeles and would recommend it to anyone who wants to be inspired, incensed, and awed by the human condition. Peace and Power.
