If you aspire to wealth or freedom, the journey begins with a single step: stop consuming mindlessly. The world is divided into two groups—consumers and producers—and understanding this distinction is essential to changing your life.

The Consumer’s Trap

Consumers often find themselves on the losing side of life. They indulge in fleeting pleasures, scrolling endlessly on their devices, binge-watching entertainment, and spending on things that quickly lose value. Driven by a desire for instant gratification, they chase trends and gadgets, often without questioning the systems they support. This cycle keeps them trapped, preventing true growth or freedom.
