Is "live below your means" really good advice?

I think a lot of people have trouble reconciling an abundance mindset with the omnipresent, "live below your means," advice.

To achieve great success, we're told that we must take risks, act as if, and spend money to make money. The other side of the personal finance tells us to skip the daily coffee, never eat out, and live a life a step or two below our current status.

This is something I struggled with and still do.

Are these two sides of the same coin or different coins?
