Get insane with money. Grant was labeled when he was younger as problematic, but he just didn’t have attention on the right things. You need to have your attention on money. We live on an economic planet. Try going 24 hours without thinking about or using money. It’s impossible. Everything you do costs money. A bag of food at Whole Foods costs $80. You have to fund your activities. If you don’t get maniacal with your money, you won’t have money.

Create the economy you deserve. The word economy originally came from the management of a household. You have to have money to take care of those you love. If you have a shortage, start paying attention to it. For those who don’t like maniacs, they say things like “Slow down”, “don’t toot your own horn”, “take it easy”—these are all sayings from people who are against maniacs and don’t have money. You need to be a maniac, and that requires you to get obsessed.
