It emphasizes the dangers of social media addiction, negative peer influence, health neglect, poor financial planning, and procrastination. The speaker, Active Rahul, urges viewers to eliminate these habits to achieve success and financial stability. ### Key Points - **Social Media Addiction** [00:57] — The first habit is spending excessive time on social media, especially Instagram reels, which provides no income or learning. This addiction is compared to being more dangerous than alcohol. - **Negative Peer Influence** [03:25] — The second habit is surrounding yourself with friends who waste time and discourage ambition. Such company prevents personal growth and success. - **Health Neglect** [05:07] — The third habit is ignoring health, including poor diet and lack of exercise. Good health is essential for working and earning, and neglecting it leads to future diseases and medical expenses. - **Lack of Financial Planning** [07:35] — The fourth habit is not planning finances. The speaker advises learning about mutual funds and SIPs, and suggests investing ₹2,000-3,000 monthly from a ₹15,000 income. - **Procrastination** [09:40] — The fifth and biggest mistake is procrastination. Delaying tasks, especially income-generating work, breaks consistency and leads to a downward spiral. The speaker shares a personal story of a month-long break that hurt his channel. ## Transcript life will be completely ruined in five ways and you have already entered the first way. Look, today I know very well that you are not earning from social media and some people are earning but they are not earning as well as they want and the biggest issue they want and the biggest issue in today's time is money. If you have money, good money, then you can go and make your life better. Otherwise, you will go from being a middle class family to becoming poorer and gradually, it will become difficult for you to survive in the rising inflation. You should accept this thing and the way your life is getting ruined now, neither in the future nor in the way it is your life is getting ruined now, neither in the future nor in the way it is In the first method, I have already said that you have entered and you do not even know that your life is getting ruined. See, the biggest reason, the first reason is using the phone all day long and scrolling through social media. All the youth of today who are watching my videos, where do you spend most of your time? You give it on social media, that too on Instagram. From where you do not earn even ₹1 per hour. But where does most of your time go? Goes to Instagram. Goes to watch Reels on Instagram. And you see such reels, brother, which do not need you at all. You don't know how many reels you see throughout the day from which you neither have to take anything nor give anything. You just start the phone. If you go on Instagram, you climb on it like a horse, just like no human being rides a horse, but you climb on Instagram in a more dangerous way than that. And after this, scroll after scroll, scroll after scroll, even the rider gets down after riding the horse, not even think of getting down from Instagram. You just go on watching reels after reels and you realize that you do watching reels after reels and you realize that you do after this, you do not even know what reels you saw, what reel you saw, what you got from that reel. So the first thing that is ruining your life is that in the first stage you are scrolling through the Facebook all day long and are not watching such videos that can help you learn something so that you get any knowledge, neither are you developing any skills nor are you doing anything, nothing at all, you are just using the phone all day long and while using the phone you think that I will do this, I will do that, whatever video you see in front of you, views keep coming, good videos get reach, you think that I can make such videos but you just think and do nothing, morning becomes evening, after eating and drinking you stretch your legs on the bed and go to sleep and after this you think that I will do it from tomorrow, I will do it from tomorrow, so in the first stage you are already getting ruined in the first stage you are already getting ruined and I am saying already 90% or 100% that you are ruined and you are not able to get out of this addiction and you are trapped in this addiction, you are trapped, scrolling on the phone all day long Do it, if you put the phone down then pick it up again and after that start watching the reels, try it. Try planting a crop. Try not watching reels for an hour. You will start feeling restless inside you. It will seem as if I have suddenly become intoxicated. This is an addiction which is more dangerous than liquor, wine, alcohol, which is phone addiction. In which you do not have to learn any skill. You're just scrolling through reels all day long. If this is true then please comment. Yes. There is a second point. The second point is that you are in the company of wrong people. Look, today many of our youth, the youth of India, are in bad company. He is lying with such friends who are just wasting his time. Just by getting carried away by my friends' talk, hey friend, let's have some fun. Let's take a little walk outside. Meaning, this kind of thrill that you get for a little while, not just friends and have fun. This is the joy of life, this is the biggest reason for your destruction. This is what is ruining you. It is reason for your destruction. This is what is ruining you. It is want to proceed as well. But you are in the company of such friends. What will the friend who doesn't want this to progress beyond me say? Hey friend, come on friend, this is life. Let's enjoy it friend. What about you friend, do it from tomorrow, do it from tomorrow. What work is being done? And such friends are making your life from hell to hell. They don't want you to succeed because they know that I won't be able to do it. I will also take him under the influence of his in-laws so that he too cannot do this. So leave the company of such friends today itself. Stay away from such friends, but if you are alone then you are very good. Don't keep such friends. Do not keep company with such friends who do not support you in your success. Make friends like these. Make company with such people who always think ahead, like friend, let's do this, let's do that work, that means don't waste time at all. You should be in the company of such friends. This is number point two. If you are doing this then you are already ruining your life at the second step also. Number three is ignoring health. Nowadays, many of our youth, our brothers and sisters, do not pay attention to their health. See, now I also pay attention to work. So I am ahead of you in all three ways and all three steps. Yes. I am ahead of you. And I'm so happy I'm ahead of you. I am different from you. Because I also pay attention to my health. What a lot of people do is think, who will go and work hard ? Who will go to the gym? Who will do what? Meaning, what you say is that you eat pizza, burger, you give up fruits and many other things, neither exercise nor reading books, do you have any such good habit? Think for yourself and tell me, do you have the read all these books. Like look at the power and success of thoughts. This is a very good book. If you find this somewhere online, brother, if you find this book somewhere online, then buy it. Buying and reading this book will open your mind. And if this book is available online then I will tag it here. There are a lot of books. Like the power and success of ideas. After this there is another book called Rights of Man. After this, see what is there here? Think and grow rich. When you read all these books, you will start moving away from bad habits. Your mind will change. You will start thinking good things. You will become more conscious about working. You will not waste your time. You will start valuing every time in a good way. You will start understanding the value of everything. Your life will start changing. But the problem is that you do not have all these habits. I did not have the habit of doing all this. But I added it, improved it because if I want to make my life better and better then I should pay attention to all this also. The time that is saved, which I spend scrolling to watch meaningless reels, I should spend that time learning in it, what a good book it is, Power of Thoughts and Success, Think and Become Rich, when you read all these books, brother, your mind will change, so the first thing is that you neither pay attention to your health nor to yourself, so if you want to change your life from today, then from today itself you should start going to workout, gym etc., stop eating pizza burger, maintain a good life because only when your health is good, you will be able to work further. Otherwise, in the future, how will you come to know that you are suffering from 50 types of diseases. This happened, that happened. If you are taking medicine, you will put more medicine inside you than you earn. Ok? So it is better to work hard today. Ok? So it is better to work hard today. working and when you feel like working, what will happen? Lakshmi ji will come. So how much will this improve your things? Ok? After this, the fourth thing is that you do not plan your money, brother. Ok? Now suppose Where do I start planning? Don't do it. Even if you do not have money, still plan that friend, I will do this work like this and after doing this work, if my work goes well then I will earn so much money, then what will I do with this money? This is some money, for example, you get money from your parents or from anywhere. What did you have in mind at first? Hey friend, let's go and have a party. Let's that one takes it. Buy expensive clothes. Friend, your brand will not be created by expensive clothes. Wearing branded clothes will not make you branded. You will remain a hut from inside. If you do the Chhapri thing. Do such work that even if you wear a T-shirt worth ₹100. Even if you wear a ₹100 patti, it starts looking branded. Do such work. Create a brand within yourself, not through clothes, wear a brand and show it to a few people. Hey friend, look I am wearing a shirt worth ₹2000. Hey friend, look, I am wearing a ₹1500 pat. Look, I am wearing shoes worth ₹4000. No, till date I have not bought any expensive clothes. I wear those clothes. I will buy a normal ₹1 or ₹200 man, this T-shirt looks very nice. Why does it feel good? Because I am doing good work, brother. Meaning, you should improve yourself in all these things, you should plan your money, suppose you have some money. You should learn to invest it. Learn how to invest in mutual funds. Learn to do SIP. Learn how to invest in mutual funds. Learn to do SIP. Learn about all these things. And suppose you are earning ₹15,000 per month. Suppose you are doing a job somewhere and you earn ₹15,000, then invest ₹2 to ₹3,000 in it somewhere, do SIP. Do all these things that I do. If you also want to do SIP , you also want to learn investment then tell us by commenting. I will tell you. Now number five, friends, this is the biggest mistake people make. In today's time, if you are not able to become successful, then all the people who are crying that I am not able to become successful on YouTube. I am not getting views. Nothing is happening to me. My work is not going well. The biggest mistake is the fifth one. The fifth reason is that you postpone every task at every moment. Hey friend, I will do everything tomorrow. For example, suppose I have to do some work today, I will do it tomorrow. I will do it tomorrow. This is the biggest and most dangerous cause of destruction. Never postpone your work. Never postpone your work. The work which provides you livelihood, the work which will make your future, the work which will make your future, the work which will generate your income, brother, do not postpone that work no matter what happens. No matter what happens in the world , if you are capable then do that work. Never postpone your work. Do n't take him lightly. If you want to make a video today, then make it today. Upload it today. Don't think that hey friend, I will put it tomorrow also. You will break the consistency. Everything will break for you. One day you will break consistency. One day you will get used to it, friend, I will do it tomorrow and after this, if you get used to this, then your tomorrow will go away in two days , three days, 10 days. You won't even know. And how am I saying this? I myself, you should watch my videos. I never take a week's gap. But this happened to me once. It was my brother's wedding. I thought, okay, friend. I make videos every day. The video is still playing. The money is coming anyway. I am making it after two-four days. A month passed by while doing it for two-four days. There was no content on my channel for a month. Those who know will know. When I thought that I did not understand what to do. Which work should I do? How to make videos? How do I start from where? So never break your consistency. Because once your consistency is broken, many things, many bad thoughts will come inside you that let's do it later. What will happen, friend? Now I don't feel like doing this work. This work is not good. But you will maintain consistency like this. You will love your work. Learn to love your work. Because the work that you love will take you very far. No matter what work you do. If you want to be successful in life then remove all these five things from your life. Remove today's today itself.
