Dave, You're like the father I never had. I don't agree with you on everything but I know your advice is sound. After 3 months of watching your videos, all I have to say is Thanks for knocking some sense into me. Its funny how a video on UA-cam can actually change your life.
definitely worked for me. money used to burn in my hands and my money would go to clutter. paid off all credit cards and starting paying triple on my house. God willing, I will pay off by Oct. 2020. thanks to Dave's advice.
Same. Just so happened to come across Dave Ramsey 4 months ago, and something just clicked. It got me out of the conventional consumerism mentality and it has honestly even made me a better husband. Great thing I found Ramsey a year into our marriage at 25 and not at 35 with accumulated piles of debt!
I received 14000 from a settlement and my father decided I should by a new car with it. He actually got upset when I told him I wanted to pay off the car I already had and use the rest to pay off remaining medical bills. Thank God I listen to Dave. I'm now on my way to financial freedom.
Wilky Louis Jean Good work! I’ve paid off almost 5,000 school loans in 5 months so far making $30,000. You got to stick to the budget and any extra money keep throwing at the debt.
Dave, I've watched nearly all of your videos, but this one right here hit me deep down in my soul. I could truly hear your heart and passion for helping others on their journey to debt freedom and creating generational blessings, instead of curses. Thank you!
I started listening to dave ramsay one year ago, He has been a tremendous blessing in my life. His teaching has changed my financial life, and my view on politics and my entire understanding of life. I am 100 % debt free and I am currently on baby Step 6, To purchase a brand new apartment by the end of this year. I am thankful for the wisdoms i have received from his books and shows online. Thank you! btw I live in Sweden
I am flat broke but I'm not in Debt. Working on getting a Career worth having and at the same time build up a savings plan. I had the Ideas your portraying but couldn't quite get a plan put together not knowing where to start. You helped get that direction. Now I have a savings (not $1,000 yet but a good start) and its building fast. Getting rid of the debt was the first step. Financial freedom is awesome. Wish I would have known who you were in 2007. I would be rich and not at $100.00 in savings and my house would be payed off. I was not taught how to manage money as a kid and X wife Bankrupt me. NEVER AGAIN!! Thanks Dave Ramsey.
+Bronco Surveillance i feel that way myself. i wish i knew abut Dave Ramsey when I was working. I wouldn't have to live on SSI. But I am doing my best to follow Ramsey's plan. it will just take me some more time to complete Step 2.
+Leighla Claiborne I am on SSI and I am showing signs of being able to work, I am looking for work, moreso a business of my own, and payoff debt. SSI is hard to live on
olivionb I am doing my best. However Millionaire isn't what I am after. I just want enough to take care of my family and my friends. Being able to give to my Community in a way I see as beneficial is my goal. Sharing all I have with those who need it and keeping it away from the greedy and wasteful.
Thank you Dave Ramsey. It is a true blessing to come across you. My family tradition is arguing at the top of our lungs over who's fault it is we can't pay the bills. My parents are broke (not poor) because they spend their paycheck the day they receive them and they have 6 kids. I'm the oldest and will change my family tree.
Pamela C. Right??? I realized this after I decided to get out of debt. I've been debt-free since August of 2016 at 34yo. No one is forcing anyone to borrow money except the person signing the agreement.
It takes maturity to accept responsibility and stop blaming others. When you claim responsibility for your actions you are then able to take more action and fix or create for a higher quality of life
I’ve been following Dave 8 months now and I’m glad I did, I paid off my car and credit cards and 3 weeks after I did that I lost my job🤦🏾♀️ but I’m still greatful that I’m debt free despite the odds…!! If I had know him 5 years ago I would be so far ahead, honestly it wasn’t easy going into my savings to pay off my debt but when I see that email saying your title is on the way I feel so relieved…. Good luck to all u guys who is trying to get ahead wish u all the best!!
Thank you Dave for your persistent work, as well as everyone who helps you at your business, you're not only changing your branch of the family tree, but the branches of other family trees all across the United States. Keep up the good work for as long as you are willing and able!
Thanks Dave. I have one of your books I read. I just got out of debt. But the bad news is I’m poor. Keep doing what your doing. I just wish I heard of you when I was 8 years old. Been bankrupt 2 times . Married and divorced 2 times. Etc..
If you don't want to watch or listen to Dave, why are you haters commenting? There are so many other options to watch or listen to. Take your hate and your Ph.D. in D.U.MB. on another post. Some of us are trying to gain some knowledge so that we can change our family tree and he is helping us accomplish this. What are you contributing to society?
Common sense is something that can't be taught. You either have it or you don't. If you need someone to tell you to pay your bills off to get out of debt, you are beyond help.
Ted Graham Have you ever considered that most people are hearing this information for the first time? Lots of us didn't grow up with an understanding of finances because our parents didn't know. Why are we all in debt? Why do you think he has 8 million followers on Facebook & Twitter? Why do you think his show is the top show on iheart radio? People are hungry for information. He is providing hope to millions of us. If you don't need this information, why do you care what he is trying to teach us? Thank goodness he is available and teaching this stuff for free. Since you are already a millionaire, let us have the opportunity to become one.
Hearing for the first time that if you pay your bills off then you can get out of debt? Seriously? It's kind of an insult when you think about it. Like if you want to go outside you must first open the door.
Believe it or not, this actually helped me feel better about a conscious decision to go back into debt. After paying off our debt, we learned our 10 yr old son has a serious medical condition. Doctors he'll need are not covered by insurance. However, by helping him, I am RADICALLY changing my family tree. I was feeling so defeated. But now, I know how to minimize it, & how to plan to repay it. Thanks Dave.
I am so grateful for these videos; you’ve ignited a fire within me to change financially. I appreciate tour existence! I also admire you on how you overcame hurdles in your life.
I’m 21 and I just want to say, thank you Dave, because of you I have no student loans, a degree and no credit card debt. I made many mistakes financially when I turned 18 but now I have goals and I live below my means and save.
Can you please have more chats for the baby boomers listening.....I am 67, and just found you a few months ago. I am looking for advice for the upcoming years with social security and a side hustle, and the expense of medicines and all the other fun stuff old people have to deal with. Thanks for saving us from ourselves! Love sharing you with my kids.
I was in a dealership about to finance a 23k car. Your video popped up in suggestions on you tube. I walked right out still need a car but not that bad. Thanks for your financial advice something many of us are not taught growing up
I have been listenting to you since yesterday (1/26/15)....very nice, down-to-earth, practical advice for people. Some of the things you have said, we have been doing in our family for quite some time. We hate debt. We talk about whether we need something before buying. It's all about living within ones own means.........whether it is $30K.......$100K.......or $500K....and keeping money aside for savings, investments, too. And it is also about increasing ones means with work, education, etc. I like your videos.....just subscribed.
This 'rant' was so powerful! Just listening to you has made me write out my WHY. Making financial decisions is about changing behaviors, accountability, and consistency. Thanks so much for what you do!
Thank you Mr Dave for helping me to start making changes in my life and I am reading the book live your life not theirs and is helping me too a lot... Paying off my debts but better than all... Thinking different because I want to be successful... Thank u
Since I've started listening to you, Dave, I've started really looking up to you. You're like my wise financial father that I come to for inspiration and guidance on a daily basis. Thank you for what you do.
Thank u Mr. Ramsey. I have been changing so many things in my family tree. I have one credit card left that I will be done with by end of this year and I will never again pay for anything that I cannot afford!
this was very inspiring. I feel I'm on the right track to change, change not for myself but for the family too. I'm so happy to stumble over this video through my search. Thank you so much, stay blessed.
Thanks Dave. Thanks so much for what you are doing, I started watching your videos on 1/7/2019. Working so hard with my husband to have our debt free scream by the end of the year.
I am thankful I'm on the path of saving and investing at the age of early 20s. I will never wish to see the word debt appear in my lifetime and I hope that none of that will happen to any of you guys, If you are I wish that you will start the changes required to get out of the rat race because we all deserve financial freedom if you choose that path.
There are some days where I am super motivated to get rid of debt. In February, I will pay off my car and sell it. In the past week I have paid 2k on credit card debt. I'm almost seeing the light, but I still feel like I should be doing more.. So ready!!!!
Literally these days I go to sleep at night listening to Dave and within 60 seconds of waking up in the morning, I find myself listening to him again. Wisdom is addictive.
Marie Ji , hi there. I learned to save from when I was a little girl. In church, they showed me how to set aside 10% of any $$ I'd get. I would receive 1 dollar from uncles & I still saved the 10%. So I definitely learned to save & budget until I was with my ex husband. He taught me a different Habit. To live & spend now cuz we may die today. it worked for a while till we went broke. I'm having a hard time regaining my lost skills that I had from before. I left him & regaining myself & my self worth. My problem is now I keep bumping into people that wanna take my $$ away from me, like a curse or something cuz I know how to work & save but I just don't get it. I'm like a turtle now all scared of meeting individuals. Not Cool.
I LOVE this video. I just finished reading your book last night. I totally BELIEVE in the total money makeover... I lived in that kind of way... BUT you were able to show and explain why the way I was paying off my debt is the BEST way... THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! I am looking forward to getting completely OUT of DEBT and STAYING out of debt!!! GREAT VIDEO!!
Dave...time to run for President I think!!!!..Im in the uk.I teach my Son who is 8 years old to SAVE and spend a little..He learns money does not grow on trees and hard work and determination are the way forward in life..God bless you.
I always lived paycheck to paycheck and getting myself in small debts, borrowing money and what not. Working only to pay and paying to work. But, last year i told God, i said, Lord, im going to be honest with you. I am tired of living like this, but i cannot change. unless you interve inmy life and allow something to happen to make me hit rock bottom, i will not be able to break this cycle in my life. Soon after that, he sure did intervene. I went through a tremendous debt, that forced me to budget. My 9yo also had to learn to budget. I can say one year later my mindset is much different and so is my son’s. 2 months ago, i started listening to Dave Ramsey almost all day everyday. My son would say, mom you are listening to him agaain?? 😂 i said, baby this man will help us get out of debt and get us a place of our own next year. Lol Today, i have found the courage to leave my toxic job, found a higher paying job that will help me get out if debt within my goal and end the year with savings. and i have dreams and visions for the future that involve being smart with money. Thanks to God and Mr. Ramsey.
I CAN'T stop watching thus MAN! It seems like he's talking to me. Pretty much all the things that I've listened to from him makes a lot of sense. Basically to me he is saying make wiser decisions, get out of debt stop being gullible, stop signing your life away and be simply Smarter with your money.
I am debt free i hate credit cards n never own one...wht i hv are visa electronic travel card so i put on the money i need to order stuff ect,i dnt do hire purchases i save and buy items for my home cash...i just needed to be more strict with my saving plan,learn to say no and stick to my budget...mr. ramsey is definately motivating and showing me the way to tht
it's okay if you don't care to listen to Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, or Glenn Beck, but for goodness sake at least listen to the word of Dave Ramsey! now that's talk radio that matters. Winning is 80% behavior, 20% knowledge. We need to get more people on board with his program.
We don't need anybody running our lives and property. How about we stop propping up politicians over others to begin with?!? Why do you think you need a political master? That's the real problem, everybody believes in rulers and that we need people to control us.
I agree with just about everything Dave Ramsey says. The only thing that I ever hear him talk about that I can't agree with is how if you smile, work hard, and show up to work early and have a good work ethic then you'll get a promotion. I'd like to know what company he talks about cause at my company being a brown noser is what gets you to move up. I'd say in my company that probably only about 15% of all managers actually worked to get to that position and are good managers. We have very little leaders and mostly bosses. They treat their employees like they are inferior to them. Many have a a huge turnover rate of good employees because they don't treat others well. Even when everyone can see what a bad manager someone is, they are still kept in that position. Work ethic has nothing to do with anything. Dave Ramsey may treat his employees well and put them in positions that deserve and work for, but he needs to realize that he is in the very small minority of companies that are like that.
Here's my story- I'm 26 (single), live at home and have a B.S. in Political Science, minors in Sociology and Communication studies from ASU. I'm 3/4th of the way to being a lawyer my family says. I would love to be a lawyer, but are scared to the dickens of that potential massive debt that I will need to get. I have just a shade over 37k in debt (9,500 in student loan debt, 11,500 in credit cards and 16,200 left on a car that the payments I had refinanced through a credit union)but I would be looking at least 100k+ if I get a student loan to go to law school. My dad says borrowing is a way of life, that once you get a great job, you can pay off the debt while still living a comfortable life. -.- He's dangling carrots such as lowering my rent and paying the application fee for the lsat exam as control mechanisms. I told my dad I was looking to getting a part time job in order to start my emergency fund. I will use whatever I get for my tax return in my emergency fund, then baby step 2. But no, my dad believes that a part time job is a quick fix. -.- Believe me I want to study to be a lawyer but the prospects of taking out that much in student loans scares me. I do not want to let that dominate my life. I'm not sure what else to do. Any advice would be much appreciated.
+Galbert-Kun . Lawyer is a good career but from what I've read, jobs are now a lot harder to come by for new grads. I think it depends on the law school you go to also. I wouldn't go to an expensive private, not highly ranked, law school. Just research it a bunch before committing to anything. And don't let your parents pressure you too much. My parents wanted me to go to undergrad when I didn't know what I wanted to do & all I ended up getting was 50k in student loans (thankfully now paid off). Now they're trying to tell me to get a house before saving up a 20% down payment. Sometimes parent's don't know what's best.
Allaiya Congrats on paying off the student loans! Thank you for your words of encouragement. I feel that my parents want me to satisfy their agenda and both do not understand what my true passion is. I feel I can be a great lawyer, but I want to do it on my terms and cashflow school.
In my experience, he's correct. It won't happen in one week though. People who are positive, easy to get along with and polite will always be promoted. Obviously you need to be competent, but trust me, to be liked at work is a very, very powerful thing indeed. Be everyone's friend.
Dave, You're like the father I never had. I don't agree with you on everything but I know your advice is sound. After 3 months of watching your videos, all I have to say is Thanks for knocking some sense into me. Its funny how a video on UA-cam can actually change your life.
Robert Scott agreed
It will only change your life if you act on it. People can give you all kind of advice, but it's useless if you don't apply it.
definitely worked for me. money used to burn in my hands and my money would go to clutter. paid off all credit cards and starting paying triple on my house. God willing, I will pay off by Oct. 2020. thanks to Dave's advice.
Same. Just so happened to come across Dave Ramsey 4 months ago, and something just clicked. It got me out of the conventional consumerism mentality and it has honestly even made me a better husband. Great thing I found Ramsey a year into our marriage at 25 and not at 35 with accumulated piles of debt!
Right!?
Like on his relationship with being anti socialism and being kinda too religious throws me off, but other than that, he's awesome.
I never get tired of listening to this.
EVER!! I love his rants... reminds me of my fussing yet loving mother, may she rip.
I listened to this video like 5 times already today!
Rodney Fury me either! I’m addicted!
Same here
Me either he is sooo on point with everything
sometimes hitting rock bottom is the strongest foundation...
Yep sometimes lessons need to be learnt the hard way
Joe Neth I strongly agree!
Wow. Revelation right there
I've hit rock bottom and everything is so clear now. 100% agree!
Joe Neth ain’t that the truth
I received 14000 from a settlement and my father decided I should by a new car with it. He actually got upset when I told him I wanted to pay off the car I already had and use the rest to pay off remaining medical bills. Thank God I listen to Dave. I'm now on my way to financial freedom.
Amen!
Great job
Amen 🙏
That 14,000 gave you freedom. What a wonderful usage of that money.
Great job❤❤
Lord I wish I had listened to this man when I was in my 20’s
Me too
I’m 25 and wish I heard of him when I was 18.
Same here
Louis, I'm in the same boat entirely. Been maybe a month since I've been listening and I am already changing my mindset and made a budget.
Same here. Wish I listened as soon as I got my first job.
"Bad News, You're the Problem. Good News, You're the Solution." I want that on a shirt right now. Send it to me.

Thanks to Dave I paid $5000 in credit card debt in 9 month , making 35000 a year.
wow how did you do that while living life?
Budget, sacrifice, cook, don't eat out for a while... 😊😊

There are some days where I am super motivated to get rid of debt. In February, I will pay off my car and sell it. In the past week I have paid 2k on credit card debt. I'm almost seeing the light, but I still feel like I should be doing more.. So ready!!!!
then what will you drive a vehicle you go in debt for?
How are you doing now??
Yes Yes Yessss. I'm in full agreement!! my vision is break the cycle of living pay check to paycheck!
Thank you Dave Ramsey for your work that matters! God speed.
Literally these days I go to sleep at night listening to Dave and within 60 seconds of waking up in the morning, I find myself listening to him again. Wisdom is addictive.
Dave's humour is so loveable. I hate virgo men but they always keep it real.
I am definitely at the "never again" place.
This is simply amazing.. Thank you ramsey..
this is some REAL TALK
I add a little fun money into my budget so I don't feel like I can't have some fun in the month. It's not much but something.
Excellent idea.
Me too
As long as you’re still alive, there’s still time to do something about it. You’re the solution to your problem.
this is possibly the realest man on youtube dropping nothing but financial wealth gems who could possibly dsilike this
Because someone has to break that cycle of having a poor mentality.
Marie Ji , hi there. I learned to save from when I was a little girl. In church, they showed me how to set aside 10% of any $$ I'd get. I would receive 1 dollar from uncles & I still saved the 10%. So I definitely learned to save & budget until I was with my ex husband. He taught me a different Habit. To live & spend now cuz we may die today. it worked for a while till we went broke. I'm having a hard time regaining my lost skills that I had from before. I left him & regaining myself & my self worth. My problem is now I keep bumping into people that wanna take my $$ away from me, like a curse or something cuz I know how to work & save but I just don't get it. I'm like a turtle now all scared of meeting individuals. Not Cool.
Dave this is a great 👍 message . Appreciate you !
I LOVE this video. I just finished reading your book last night. I totally BELIEVE in the total money makeover... I lived in that kind of way... BUT you were able to show and explain why the way I was paying off my debt is the BEST way... THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! I am looking forward to getting completely OUT of DEBT and STAYING out of debt!!! GREAT VIDEO!!

@@sugeymancia5806 hello, I have a whole getting out of debt playlist on my YT channel! 😊👍🏽 thanks for asking!
Dave I love YOU! You're a God-send.
So much wisdom with this man
I really like listing Dave basically everyday and really put me to my plan stay focused thank you Dave.
Not having the money to buy your needs is a horrible and sickening feeling! Let's get on the road to financial stability and financial peace!
Dave is a gift.
I love you uncle Dave, I learned a lot from you!
Dave...time to run for President I think!!!!..Im in the uk.I teach my Son who is 8 years old to SAVE and spend a little..He learns money does not grow on trees and hard work and determination are the way forward in life..God bless you.
Wow. This really hit home. Thanks Dave.
You are a blessing. Keep it up!
I always lived paycheck to paycheck and getting myself in small debts, borrowing money and what not. Working only to pay and paying to work. But, last year i told God, i said, Lord, im going to be honest with you. I am tired of living like this, but i cannot change. unless you interve inmy life and allow something to happen to make me hit rock bottom, i will not be able to break this cycle in my life. Soon after that, he sure did intervene. I went through a tremendous debt, that forced me to budget. My 9yo also had to learn to budget. I can say one year later my mindset is much different and so is my son’s. 2 months ago, i started listening to Dave Ramsey almost all day everyday. My son would say, mom you are listening to him agaain?? 😂 i said, baby this man will help us get out of debt and get us a place of our own next year. Lol Today, i have found the courage to leave my toxic job, found a higher paying job that will help me get out if debt within my goal and end the year with savings. and i have dreams and visions for the future that involve being smart with money. Thanks to God and Mr. Ramsey.
By far my favourite video of Dave’s
I love this message! This one is my favorite!
Thank you !!!! We down in the pit !!!! And this is encouraging!!!
I CAN'T stop watching thus MAN! It seems like he's talking to me. Pretty much all the things that I've listened to from him makes a lot of sense. Basically to me he is saying make wiser decisions, get out of debt stop being gullible, stop signing your life away and be simply Smarter with your money.
If you have the right goals and the courage to pursue those goals it's really scary but also really exciting.
This was exactly what I needed to hear Dave god bless
It's inspiring to see that someone can fix their financial situation even after filing bankruptcy.
Uncle Dave telling the truth!
Great points Dave. Thank you.
I am debt free i hate credit cards n never own one...wht i hv are visa electronic travel card so i put on the money i need to order stuff ect,i dnt do hire purchases i save and buy items for my home cash...i just needed to be more strict with my saving plan,learn to say no and stick to my budget...mr. ramsey is definately motivating and showing me the way to tht
it's okay if you don't care to listen to Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, or Glenn Beck, but for goodness sake at least listen to the word of Dave Ramsey! now that's talk radio that matters. Winning is 80% behavior, 20% knowledge. We need to get more people on board with his program.
I guess even bad people need financial advice...
Trust The Process
You tell em Dave
Thank you for this program is a great help May God bless you always Mr. Dave.
Thank you so much dave,I want to be like you in a way when I grow up. You are a sound wise man!
PREACH Dave!!
Thanks 🙏🏾 Dave!!!
Thanks for putting our family trees into perspective, Dave. 🙏🏻
Thanks Ramsey! This video has just waken me up
The family tradition thing is key...so powerful
Dave...thank you!!!
bahahahaahaha I watch Dave Ramsey all the time, and it wasn't until this video that I noticed that the R in his logo is a D and an R :p I feel dumb :(
+Rodolfo Suarez Its both. Silly fool
+aibecy you R right! Haha
Never noticed that!
I just realized it now that you mentioned it! Cool. Good eye
I VOTE DAVE RAMSEY FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA !
+Adam FUSON He's too honest to be a politician! ;)
FSEVENMAN I can’t understand what you just typed in your 3 run-on sentences. But you seem pretty smart 🙄
The media would impeach him and the Bankers would have the ex Nazis in American uniforms JFK him.
We don't need anybody running our lives and property. How about we stop propping up politicians over others to begin with?!? Why do you think you need a political master? That's the real problem, everybody believes in rulers and that we need people to control us.
I agree with just about everything Dave Ramsey says. The only thing that I ever hear him talk about that I can't agree with is how if you smile, work hard, and show up to work early and have a good work ethic then you'll get a promotion. I'd like to know what company he talks about cause at my company being a brown noser is what gets you to move up. I'd say in my company that probably only about 15% of all managers actually worked to get to that position and are good managers. We have very little leaders and mostly bosses. They treat their employees like they are inferior to them. Many have a a huge turnover rate of good employees because they don't treat others well. Even when everyone can see what a bad manager someone is, they are still kept in that position. Work ethic has nothing to do with anything. Dave Ramsey may treat his employees well and put them in positions that deserve and work for, but he needs to realize that he is in the very small minority of companies that are like that.
Here's my story- I'm 26 (single), live at home and have a B.S. in Political Science, minors in Sociology and Communication studies from ASU. I'm 3/4th of the way to being a lawyer my family says. I would love to be a lawyer, but are scared to the dickens of that potential massive debt that I will need to get. I have just a shade over 37k in debt (9,500 in student loan debt, 11,500 in credit cards and 16,200 left on a car that the payments I had refinanced through a credit union)but I would be looking at least 100k+ if I get a student loan to go to law school. My dad says borrowing is a way of life, that once you get a great job, you can pay off the debt while still living a comfortable life. -.- He's dangling carrots such as lowering my rent and paying the application fee for the lsat exam as control mechanisms. I told my dad I was looking to getting a part time job in order to start my emergency fund. I will use whatever I get for my tax return in my emergency fund, then baby step 2. But no, my dad believes that a part time job is a quick fix. -.-
Believe me I want to study to be a lawyer but the prospects of taking out that much in student loans scares me. I do not want to let that dominate my life. I'm not sure what else to do. Any advice would be much appreciated.
+Galbert-Kun . Lawyer is a good career but from what I've read, jobs are now a lot harder to come by for new grads. I think it depends on the law school you go to also. I wouldn't go to an expensive private, not highly ranked, law school. Just research it a bunch before committing to anything.
And don't let your parents pressure you too much. My parents wanted me to go to undergrad when I didn't know what I wanted to do & all I ended up getting was 50k in student loans (thankfully now paid off). Now they're trying to tell me to get a house before saving up a 20% down payment. Sometimes parent's don't know what's best.
Allaiya Congrats on paying off the student loans! Thank you for your words of encouragement. I feel that my parents want me to satisfy their agenda and both do not understand what my true passion is. I feel I can be a great lawyer, but I want to do it on my terms and cashflow school.
In my experience, he's correct. It won't happen in one week though. People who are positive, easy to get along with and polite will always be promoted. Obviously you need to be competent, but trust me, to be liked at work is a very, very powerful thing indeed. Be everyone's friend.
If what you say about your company is true, then you need to find a new company.
Love this! I am going to change my family too.
Change me😢😢
I needed to hear this
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Words can’t explain how grateful I am for his advice
Wow, you have really changed my life thank you!!!!
