“So, I think not just because you can have your freedom here, but I think you should come to Dubai or move to Dubai definitely because you see a huge mindset shift. People over here, they have normalised luxury in such a way, oh my God, that it’s, it’s so easy to achieve. And yeah, you can achieve it, you can make it. I live here. So, here too, there are a lot of people who are making a hell lot of money. And right now, coming back from my friend’s place, over there, I can’t tell you, what a vibe! Oh my God, look at the parking! So, every day you get this kind of motivation. How can a person cannot achieve his dreams? So, it’s just a matter of time, and I’m so grateful to be here, honestly. And I am loving it! Oh my God, I’m getting crazy. So yes, whatever you are dreaming, just dream big, do it, and one day definitely you’ll have it.”
The text overlaid on the clip read: “Dubai = Strong mindset”.
Parihar suggested that regularly seeing luxury cars, expensive surroundings and financially successful people had made ambitious goals appear more achievable to her. According to her, the environment serves as a constant source of motivation and encourages people to think bigger about what they want to accomplish.
