And barely get any views or likes.
Then another would make a shitty “question post” like;
“Do you pick your nose or your teeth?”
And it gets 10 thousand likes and impressions.

Do not depend on other people to make you happy.

Then pour that beautiful self you’ve created into helping others.
You can’t effectively pour from a broken vessel.

Start building something today.
What should you build? Anything!
Build:
- A service
- A product
- A newsletter
- A community
- An irresistible offer
- A e-commerce store
Not building is a choice and building something is also a choice.
Choose wisely.
Books won’t make you wealthy.
Courses won’t make you rich.
Mentors won’t help you.
You can invest in all the above but…
If your mindset sucks,
Nothing will work.
The right mindset makes everything right.
How to make $10,000 a month?
Solve a problem on a large scale.
Problems to solve:
- Being broke is a problem
- Being lonely is a problem
- Being overweight is a problem
Help remove the pain.
You are looking for a business idea, instead of looking for a problem you can solve.
I used to be shy and awkward.
How I 5x my likability?
In conversations, I focus on being interested in the speaker.
-I give eye contact.
-I ask interesting questions.
-I listen to understand, not to respond.
By doing these, I increased my likability/memorability.
I used to be the guy that literally read 20 books about a specific subject.
Did I get any better?
No. Why?
Because I didn’t take action.
….I didn’t apply what I learned.
Applying what you’ve learned, along with taking action beat reading 10 million books.
It’s 12 months later and you are still waiting for the perfect time to start.
I’ll see you in 6 months still waiting for the:
-Perfect time
-Perfect skills
-Perfect look
-Perfect weight
-Perfect laptop
-Perfect place
-Perfect office
-Perfect…….
Done is better than perfect.
I struggled even after going to college.
Why?
I didn’t unlearned the bad things programmed in my mind.
I have to unlearn:
- Bad habits
- Poor beliefs
- Negative perspectives
I have to unlearn the bad stuff to process the good stuff.
Unlearning is as important as learning.
Do these to be in the top 1%:
1. Seek discomfort.
-Find your potential
2. Be responsible for you
-No one is coming to save you
3. Let go of the need for approval
-Seek internal validation
4. Develop resilience
-Persist in adversity
5. Embrace the journey
-Enjoy the ride
“I don’t have the time”
You have time to be on TikTok all day.
"I can't focus."
You focus on other people’s business.
"I don't know how to"
You never make any effort to learn how.
"I'm not creative."
You create excuses not to take action.
Stop with lying to yourself.
96 Family members away from 1000.
It was January 1 I was asking lovely Xers to get me to 200 followers.
Now I’m almost at 1000.
Consistency pays.
I never missed a day since I started in November.
Even when I had Covid badly, I still posted.
Thank you all. Stay Consistency.
There is nothing wrong with having a 9-5.
Use your 9-5 to fund your side business.
Grow the side business into a main business and then kick your 9-5.
Until then, do your best on your 9-5. Do not quit or mess up on your 9-5 until your business can support you and your family.
I don’t know who need to hear this:
You do not get what you deserve.
You get what you work for.
Life does not care about your emotions.
If you are weak, with a fixed mindset, you have already lost.
How to get your dreams started:
- Start now.
- Start with fear.
- Start with pain.
- Start with doubts.
- Start where you are.
- Start with what you have.
If you do this and never stop, the fear, pain, and doubts will be replaced with optimism, knowledge and grit.
How to become a top 1% person:

There is no magic or shortcuts.
Doing the basics everyday is the secret.
This 1 thing is more effective than:
• Reading 1000 books
• Watching 100 courses
• Hiring 1 million coaches
What’s this 1 thing?
—> Action!
Knowledge alone is not going to give you the results you are look for.
Your actions along with knowledge create the results.
