Alex Rodriguez has become an extremely successful businessman after retiring from baseball. The former Yankee star has invested his money wisely and amassed a net worth of around $350 million. Furthermore, the New York Yankees legend also values his family very highly and turns to them whenever he is facing problems. 

Many are wondering about the key to A-Rod’s success as a businessman. The former Yankee star once shared a two-word motivational message that he feels is important to success. The message is a two-word summary of a speech made by a famous Oscar-winning actor.

Alex Rodriguez shared a message inspired by Robert De Niro

In 2021, Alex Rodriguez shared a message inspired by veteran Hollywood actor Robert De Niro in a post on Instagram. The message was his idea of what to do and what not to do when you are successful. In the post, Rodriguez says, “Stay calm. ✔️” and alongside it, he shared the video of De Niro speaking. The Oscar-winning actor talks about how success can always go away, so it’s best to just be calm.

De Niro says “just be calm. When things are going well, be calm. Don’t think you’re on top of the world, in a sense. You always gotta be wary, because I’ve seen it. I’ve seen people come, I’ve seen people go. You’ve got to be chill. You’ve got to just take what’s good in your life and move forward, cautiously and carefully, and thank God that you have that. It’s very, very important not to overextend yourself when you think you’ve got it: there’s no such thing. Everybody’s dispensable.”
