No this isn’t Chat GPT typing this , it’s me. And listen up.

Being elite isn’t some mystery. It’s pattern recognition and humility.

Find the people who already make great money, study them, listen closely, steal the discipline, the standards, the way they think when pressure hits.

That’s it.

But most people won’t do it because their ego would rather protect their comfort than admit someone else is operating on a higher frequency. So they stay where they are - judging, doubting, talking…while the elite keep learning, keep sharpening, keep separating.

And I’ve come to realize that’s okay. Everybody gets to choose. Some choose greatness. Some choose excuses. That’s why some lives look legendary on Instagram and others stay as NPC. by @themontoni

I’LL KEEP THE JEEP!

Believe it or not - my dream car is actually the Jeep on the right. I had the option to trade her in or switch it for something else. I couldn’t. She’s my baby.

I remember being in high school when everyone turned 16 it felt as if every person in my grade got a Jeep Wrangler for their birthday. Jealousy flooded my heart as they posted it on Instagram.

Me ?
I was walking my broke ass to school everyday. My $25 knock off Vans from Pacsun had holes in them and I was wondering what I was going to do for lunch because I had no lunch packed.

I remember thinking
“when I get rich I’m buying a big ass Jeep with the monster truck wheels. I’ll throw subs in the back and you’ll hear me coming loud down the street”

Few years later I manifested that.

There’s certain levels to it now though.

Instagram is funny. People kept asking me where’s my super car? I could feel the urge to upgrade. The old Italian man dialogue laser imprinted into my subconscious was constantly disagreeing and telling me there’s smarter ways to invest.

But I knew what a supercar would do for me. Like flying first class for the first time ever.
I never went back to coach.

I’ll enjoy this Mcleezy for a little while. I’ll probably only drive it to the gym and back and obviously bump the same 3 Russ songs as loud as possible as I whip it through the city of Chicago (unapologetically).

But my Jeep? That thing stays with me until the day I die. That Jeep is the statement to my younger self. No matter how many levels I climb I won’t forget that boy in Cleveland walking to school with holes in his shoes dreaming about his Jeep.

This is my Great Grandfather Nicholas DiSciscio. Born in San Marco Italy and came to America in the early 1900s. He fought in WW1 and earned a Purple Heart, which granted him citizenship for the United States.

That citizenship allowed his daughters Concetta, Antionette and my beautiful Nonna , Ida to come to America when Ida turned 16. My Nonna - having a born right citizenship due to his bravery (even though she was born in Italia) would then have the citizenship to marry her husband , Umberto Montoni and grant him citizenship into the USA. The reason I exist , was born, and am alive today in America is because of one man’s decision to choose bravery in his character. To do the hard things. To sacrifice for others.

I never met my Great Grandfather. I only heard stories from his daughter Ida as she would cook me pasta fagioli and sing old Napolitan folk songs from her farming days with her sisters in San Marco. But I hope he sees all of his grandkids, his great grandkids and Me.. And how we are all “Making it in America” because of his courage to travel across the world seeking a better life. I hope he knows I think about him often

Let this be a reminder to you - that every day of your life - certainly will ripple effect into the future. And your decisions you make today could help your great grandson tomorrow. by @themontoni

You spend a lot of time building something
With 0 knowledge of if it will work out or not

people call you crazy
stupid
They tell you to
choose a different road
the safer road
the normal road

but something inside you
Is constantly speaking louder over them
No, Keep Going.

even after the beat downs
even after the exhaustion
even after the betrayals
even after life humbles you
again
and again

there comes a point
where pain stops surprising you
and faith becomes the only language you speak

I used to think that voice in my head was mine

I mean it’s in my head right? It must be mine?

but after watching impossible things unfold
after watching the game bless me
After all that hard work
sleeping on Ian’s couch
living in my car
All the times I almost quit
The forgiveness
My loyalty
to the voice in my head that saw me through

I got to the end of the book

Just to see

It was God that was speaking
