2 Bible verses that apply:

Proverbs 12:27
The lazy man does not roast what he took in hunting, But diligence is man’s precious possession.

Colossians 3:23
And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men

But the correct answer is being born into massive wealth or being an extremely attractive female (regardless of race, imho).

These two things open more doors for you than any two other factors or considerations.

I don’t think work ethic is the only reason why they weren’t successful. The problem with intelligence is that it’s often uneven. Someone with excellent math and analytical skills may have zero social intelligence. Someone who is great at conceptualizing 3D space may suck at time management. People can be exceptionally gifted in one area while being completely out of their depth in another.

I find a lot of smart kids end up as wasted adults because they get pushed away from their aptitudes or are put in situations that play to their weaknesses rather than their strengths.

In addition, so many intelligent children have serious issues socializing. As such, they can become increasingly isolated as they age. If not remedied or helped, they risk becoming seriously mentally unstable or otherwise difficult to unlock or employ.

Finally, smart people can be extremely bored with school and superficial people leading to escapism to get a break. This can lead to drug and alcohol abuse down the road as escaping becomes a coping mechanism/crutch and substance abuse becomes a go-to means of escape.

All of the intelligence in the world is worthless if it can’t be communicated or utilized.

yea i mean the biggest determining factor in success as an adult is iq

but as far as cheat code depends on what you are talking about

happiness: learning to not get upset over things outside of your control. control what you can control


success and happiness: falling in love with the process and embracing the suck. because in the end to truely be successful at something....you have to learn you dont have choices...it frickign takes what it takes and you have to embrace that

for health- weightlifting and 7+ hours of sleep a night.

No cheat code, but life is much easier when marry someone who is a high income earner and is your best friend (Les Miles- if she's a girl).

Not sure what needs to be cheated or what the objective is but a few life pointers

Avoid envy, resentment, un dependable people and over spending.
Be dependable.

Look for solutions rather than creating problems.

Or just don’t get fat. I do that by just limiting my calories and carbs and eating healthily most of the time - not freakishly - so i guess much of the time. I don’t go to the gym and all that though. I move about by regular everyday chores and walking. I think about how God designed us to live and eat…..

I view cheat codes as something anyone can do. Not being born tall, rich, good looking.

Biggest one probably is having high self confidence.

(Never take no for an answer, get a second… third answer/opinion. Take care of yourself physically, put some effort in. Confidence in yourself is everything.)

People that are too “dumb” to accept no for an answer will often succeed after much trial and error. Just go for it. Start that business, apply for those positions you’re “unqualified for”, hit on those out of your league women, go take a solo trip somewhere crazy because you are your own main character in your story.
