Here's why you get zero inbound.

Your targeting is completely wrong.

Let me preface this with the following:

→ This applies to both inbound and outbound
→ I firmly support doing inbound and outbound
→ Remember, the inbound and referral wells will dry up

There are times I feel worthless.

It happens to all of us, even the:

→ Most "succesful" people
→ The most attractive people
→ The most fit people in the world
→ Ones who seem to have it figured out

2-3 years for an entire lifetime

Every. Single. Day. Will you do this?

→ That's what it takes to make real progress
→ That's what it takes to make sustainable money
→ That's what it takes to have an unshakeable network

You could do it in less time

Most of you aren't going to make it.

You'll say, "it's different this time."

→ But you'll quit our community
→ And you'll do it because you gave up
→ Because you were expecting quick results

What if the mountain top actually sucks?

- You thought you had everything you wanted.
- Yet you're starting to think you were wrong all along.

You've got:

→ The career
→ The family
→ The nice house
→ Fancy dinners and vacations

But there's a void you can't quite explain.

Don't forget to do absolutely nothing

Sometimes

Doing nothing can be the best something in your playbook

→ The question is when?
→ When do you do nothing?
→ When is it appropriate to drop it all?

Why cash outperforms inflation (for me)

Notice I said "for me"

Because I know I'll get reamed for this.

Then again, assume the following:

→ You know what you're doing
→ You have a great amount of patience
→ You have the ability to block out noise

I can't remember the last Monday that I dreaded.

Seriously, I literally cannot remember a Monday I didn't want to attack and make the most out of.

→ Most people can't wait until Friday.
→ Most people are counting the hours
→ Most people need that "release" to tolerate it all

I lost 75% of my revenue overnight

And there was nothing I could do about it.

Yup, this really happened to me:

→ It was a Google update
→ It wiped out my search traffic
→ And a business of mine was nearly wrecked

You've achieved everything in "their" eyes.

You "made it" by all convention.

→ The great job.
→ The amazing house.
→ The wonderful family.
→ The high paying lifestyle.
→ All the "things" you'll ever need.

You've been "winning" your entire life.
December 24, 2024 at 11:23 AM
You're all being set up.

That's right. I and everyone else is setting you up.

Every single:

→ Piece of content created
→ Comment that is made daily
→ Direct message I will send to you
→ Sentence I craftily construct for you to read
December 16, 2024 at 11:35 AM
Don't treat your whole life like a job, and your job like your whole life.

→ Too many people have this wrong
→ And they've had it wrong for too long

A decade or more has gone by

What do you have to show for it?
December 13, 2024 at 11:07 AM
No one cares that you manage $1 Billion

→ They care about WHY

The investment management space is changing.

→ People are waking up
→ They don't just trust assets under management
→ They want to know exactly who they're working with
December 12, 2024 at 11:45 AM
I write 500+ comment a day

No AI, No VAs, Just me.

Sounds like a flex right? Wrong. This is a cry for help!

So here's the deal:

→ I've been burning out
→ I've been spinning my wheels
→ I'm doing the same stuff over and over
→ And it was fine time I did something about it

How to make $100K a month without breaking your back:

→ The REAL way.

Are you ready for this? Here we go:

→ Your primary goal every day should be this:
→ To waste ZERO of your time
→ Max out your R.O.I.

That is ALL.

But how do you do this?
December 10, 2024 at 11:42 AM
I just got punched in the face.

→ That's what it feels like
→ Only it's worse because it's daily
→ And this is what you have to endure

I've been punched in the face for real. It hurts.

But how often are you literally getting punched in the face (unless you're a boxer or get into fights a lot)?

You think I'm a fraud.

→ But you don't put in the work

You think I'm cheating the system

→ But you don't put in the work

You shout out to the rooftops, "this isn't fair!"

→ But you don't put in the work
December 8, 2024 at 11:41 AM
Success isn't making millions.

→ Don't get me wrong, millions are nice
→ Millions pay the bills and make things easier
→ But millions don't provide what we usually need

And what is it that we need?
December 7, 2024 at 11:10 AM
A "saturated market" is music to my ears

→ People see this and get nervous
→ "Too many people so why bother?"
→ They think they need to pivot and run

This is the wrong thinking.
December 6, 2024 at 11:29 AM
Getting the sale isn't enough

→ We're so quick to jump
→ We want the cash in hand
→ We'll do whatever it takes to get it
→ We just care about the one-time transaction

This is exactly how you wind up on a treadmill.
December 5, 2024 at 11:37 AM
Most communities are awful.

→ So why did I bother starting one?

Because most of them fail.

That's OPPORTUNITY.

Here's the issue with the majority of communities out there.
December 4, 2024 at 11:45 AM
You're too focused on limitations

I'm about to prove I'm right:

→ You see a successful person
→ You complain that it's too hard
→ You want what they have but never start
→ Or you say that they "cheated" and gamed it
→ Or you point to the fact that they are privileged
December 3, 2024 at 11:49 AM
Buying is ultimately taking a leap of faith

→ We never REALLY know, right?

That product you just bought could:

→ Completely suck
→ Break the second it's opened
→ Not work the way it's supposed to
December 2, 2024 at 11:13 AM
I'm going to steal your business

→ OK, not really but....
→ I will use my competitors
→ And I'll build those relationships

You might have heard the term "steal followers" on here.

There's this "method" people use to "steal" followers from other creators.
