My Name is Ronny Ung. I am a 33-year old Asian-American man who grew up in Jersey City, NJ. Before it was livable.

I was in 15 fist-fights before I got to high school.

I’ve been jumped twice.

I’ve been stabbed twice.

I was constantly bullied for being asian as a kid.

I grew up playing street ball aka if you’re not bleeding, its not a foul.

I was mentally and physically abused in the house.

I’ve had 5 head injuries.

Yes I’ve been through a lot, more than I realized when I started pulling back the layers.

But this would become extremely evident post-college as I tried to work my ways towards success.

Every time I would have a little bit of financial success I would squander it and I never knew why.

Little did i know it was all of these things and even things that I had no control of(like traumas from my parents that were never processed) that were hindering my growth.

I had 50k in my bank account before I was 21 years old and squandered it.

I made 100k when I was 23 years old and squandered it.

I made 250k when I was 25 and squandered it.

I made 500k when I was 30 and squandered it.

I’ve been completely broke 4 times in my life.

I had a marijuana addiction for 15 years.

I had a coffee addiction for 15 years.

I had a food-binging disorder for many years.

I had a porn & masturbation problem that has plagued my life.

I was 20% body fat multiple times in life.

I had a stealing disorder.

I’m happy to say this is all behind me now with the journey of self-mastery.

See.

Making money is easy. Keeping it is hard.

Everyone makes a million dollars in their life yet most people are living paycheck to paycheck.

Why is that?

Because they don’t understand themselves

They don’t understand that coffee/weed/alcohol/sugar and things that poison the body and mind end up being what resists the financial freedom and healthy body they claim they desire.

What they don’t understand is that its not these things that are the problem.

The problem is what causes people to turn to those things as the solution and that is their mind.

What’s plaguing their mind to be specific.

And that is what my blog & the entirety of The Elevation Lab will cover so don’t want to ramble too much as I share with you my entire personal growth journey here.

Let’s grow together!

Ron.
