“Dream big. Start small. Begin now”
~ Robin S. Sharma, The 5AM Club: Own Your Morning. Elevate Your Life.

The Billionaire’s Maxims are 11 of Robin Sharma’s best lessons in the book, The 5 AM Club. They are the secret to a successful and fulfilling life.  If you can take these lessons and apply them to yourself, you will become happy, healthier, and grow financially. What’s listed below are the incredible bits of wisdom that Sharma discussed at the end of his book.

Maxim 1: To Create Magic in The World, Own The Magic Within Yourself

Your relationship with yourself will predict your relationship with the world. If you take the time to love and appreciate yourself, you will notice how much you share similar feelings for your surroundings.

Maxim 2: Collect Miraculous Experiences Over Material Things

“Laugh more often, dance more regularly, and play more frequently. Please.”

The phrase money doesn’t buy happiness is based on truth. That is the reason why so many millionaires are not happy. If you don’t take the time to care for your 4 interior empires (mindset, heartset, soulset, and healthset), then you will never find fulfillment. 

Maxim 3: Failure Inflates Fearlessness 

Failure is just a stepping stone to success. That is because it is the best teacher. If you learn to be excited to fail, you will make more progress than ever before. You have a choice: you can be stopped by fear, or you can do something that will make an impact. There is no room for both. 

Maxim 4: Proper Use of Your Primal Power Creates Your Person Utopia 

You can create your miracles with 4 tools: 

1. Your Thoughts
2. Your Feelings
3.  Your Words
4.  Your Deeds. 

Maxim 5: Avoid Bad People

“ Fill your life with exceptionally excellent, enterprising, healthy, positive, ethical, and sincerely loving people.” 

You are who you surround yourself with. If you are constantly around bad influences, you will start to act similarly; if you are around good influences, the same will occur. Be around people who inspire you and make you want to be better. Having said this, you should show respect to everyone you meet. Try to always remain peaceful and avoid creating any enemies. 

Maxim 6: Money is The Fruit of Generosity, Not Scarcity

Your money should circulate. You cannot advance yourself or your projects if you don’t allow it to flow. Of course, this doesn’t mean you should spend money on items you don’t value. You should invest in yourself first by allowing your money to flow into investments, businesses, or education.

Maxim 7: Optimal Health Maximizes Your Power to Produce Magic

What is the point of earning a lot of money if you don’t live long enough to enjoy it? The way you treat yourself is important.  Take care of your body by exercising and eating quality foods. Take care of your mind by meditating and journaling. If you take care of yourself, your performance will skyrocket.

Maxim 8: Continue Raising Your Life Standards Toward Absolute World-Class

Financial success can stem from these 4 practices:

1. Positive Expectancy
2. Active Faith
3. Ever-Increasing Gratitude
4. Extreme Value Delivery

The higher you raise your standard, the better quality of life you will experience. You won’t live forever, so treat yourself as best as you can, while you still can. You’ll notice that an extra benefit of treating yourself better is developing more meaningful relationships with others, money, and your surroundings. 

Maxim 9: Deep Love Yields Unconquerable Joy

Like Maxim 8 stated, we don’t live forever, so tell your loved ones how proud you are. Show them how much you care and express yourself as authentically as possible. The last thing you want to do is fail to show how much you care. Coincidentally, the more you feel genuine care for others, the more you will care about yourself. 

Maxim 10: Heaven on Earth is a State, Not a Place

Take as much time as you can to stay in the present. Allow yourself to be inspired and amazed by the little things around you. Find things that spark wonder and dedicate part of your days to exploring them. That is how you develop personal mastery. 

Maxim 11: Tomorrow is a Bonus, Not a right

This has been said many times before, but our time is finite. If you let too much of it slip away, you won’t be provided with another chance to get it back. Enjoy all the highs in your life and make sure you fully feel all the lows and inbetweens as well. All of life is worth living. It is how we learn, grow, and succeed. Be smart, but also take risks. Don’t be afraid to say “yes.”
