Thoughts Of A Billionaire

What do I constantly think about? Being that I am nineteen, you might think my mind is filled with beautiful girls, getting wasted at wild parties, getting to work on time and miraculously finding a way to past the coming test. These are some of the thoughts that may fill an average teenager’s mind, but I am no average teen. I am a young billionaire. Please, do not mistake my words for idle talk or fictions of my imagination. The words I speak are true, and whether you believe it or not, it will happen. You see, the reason why I can stand here boldly, and say this to you, is because I crave success. I do not crave it like a person may crave sweets or sexual pleasure. No. I crave success like an asthmatic craves air to breath. I don’t think you heard me right. I said, I crave success like an asthmatic craves air to breath. Success is not something I merely seek to achieve; it is something I would die without. You can say I’m addicted. So addicted that I must read about success everyday. My long smoothly rolled blunt filled with sour Kush and purple haze……… is going on a website and reading about people who started from nothing, and became billionaires. I immerse myself in success, reading books like, “Think and grow rich,” “The secret,” and “The Master key.” I watch videos by people like Mark Cuban and Will Smith. I allow nothing, but positive thoughts to fill my mind. This may seem simple to you and you may wonder, what makes me think I’m so special. The reason why I’m special…is because I let nothing stop me from achieving my dreams. I am homeless, living under the mercy of a neighbor. There are days where I have filled my stomach, with the smell of the stores I pass on my way from school. I have spent countless nights sleeping on living room floors. I have walked for hours so that I could save a metro card in order to get to school. All the while I attend school everyday, dressed in my business attire, smiling happily from cheek to cheek. No one would ever suspect that this is the life I live. You would think that this would discourage me greatly. No. The life I live inspires me, it encourages me, it drives me. Being able to live at the lowest, and overcome it, has taught me that nothing is impossible, and that you can achieve your biggest dreams if you believe, and strive for it. Each day I wake up and smile, being thankful for the things I do have, because to me, I have plenty. I smile not only for today, but also for tomorrow, because I know it will be a better day. My situation is but a temporary circumstance that is preparing me for my bright future. This is why I will achieve success.
