Set new standards of your life.

I use the expression you said in terms of making money, because when I'm working to make money, I never even remember to die and always remember to live forever so I never feel tired when working. It also motivates me not to be lazy because I always have the urge to produce more, besides continuing to add knowledge to things I don't know in life. But apart from all that, I also don't forget to worship in life because it can remind me of death which certainly everyone will not know when.

Definitely. Because if you don't have any standard for how you want to live your life, you will just live like other people. What is your standard on making an investment? Is saving enough for you? Do you take financial risks? Once you know what you want in life, it's very easy to identify what is the real opportunity for you and what is a distraction. At first, there won't be any balance in your life because your working on one aspect. But over time as you work on other things little by little, it will compound and build a foundation for a better life. A good financial literate man is just a reflection of their own discipline doing what they know is right.

They say contentment is the key to happiness but sometimes, having this kind of mindset leads to a lack of motivation and laziness. Striving for more and always aiming for the better is the best that we can do to achieve more in life.
If we want to live a comfortable life then we should double or even triple our efforts to work and grind more. If we are achieving what we want then we should set a higher standard for us to have enough preparation for the future. It doesn't mean that we have to work all our lives but rather work hard so when we get old, we'll have enough energy and savings to live a comfortable life.
