How to Turn Self-Focus Into Unstoppable Confidence   This episode of the Rich Mind Podcast challenges a common belief by exploring why being more selfish is a crucial ingredient for success. Inspired by the wisdom of Jim Rohn and Earl Nightingale, Randy and Greg discuss why "working harder on yourself than you do on your job" is the ultimate form of productive selfishness. They break down the difference between healthy self-focus and negative arrogance, emphasizing that building your internal world—your attitude, confidence, and habits—is the foundation for all external achievement. This conversation is a guide to taking radical responsibility for your own personal development, learning to love yourself, and showing up in the world with a confidence that naturally attracts opportunities.   Key Takeaways:   Being "selfish" in the context of personal development means prioritizing your own internal growth, attitude, and habits. Jim Rohn's philosophy, "To have more, you must become more," requires a self-centered focus on improving yourself first. There is a clear distinction between confidence (which is earned through competence) and arrogance (which is not backed by action). Your attitude is a "magic word" that dictates how the world responds to you and the opportunities you attract. A lack of self-love and self-compassion is often the root cause of a lack of confidence. You are the only person you have 100% control over; trying to change others is a futile effort that drains your energy. Every small, daily interaction is an opportunity to practice a positive attitude and potentially attract your next big opportunity.   Questions Answered in This Episode:   Why is being more "selfish" actually a key to success?
