If you want to make millions as an entrepreneur, I’ve done it twice with two businesses in two different industries.
I also made a lot of mistakes along the way.
So here are 10 pieces of advice I’d give myself if I had to do it again:
1) Ideas without action mean nothing
You can have decades of experience and 1,000 great ideas...
But your ideas are worthless until you act on them.
If you want to hit a home run, you need to start swinging and learn along the way.
And if you're afraid of failure...
2) Stick to your values
You can talk yourself into anything...
But you should never betray your values.
If your gut reaction doesn't feel right, walk away or pivot.
But if you KNOW you're on the right track, double down.
Even if you're struggling.
3) Learn to say no
Time is your most valuable resource.
Nothing will slow down your progress (and kill your happiness) like spreading yourself too thin.
You can't help everyone. Be selective with how you spend your time.
4) Be irreplaceable
If you want to "make it" in business, you need to have something to offer that NO ONE else can give.
Make yourself so valuable that no single person can replace you.
Crank up your value and watch your network explode.
5) Ownership is everything
You can work your fingers to the bone, but if you don't have own the business...
You're building someone else's dream.
And remember: no partnership is forever.
There's another critical aspect of ownership most ignore:
Ownership of your mistakes and failures.
Pushing blame on others and avoiding responsibility will kill your career faster than you can say "scammer".
You need to have a zero-tolerance policy on bullshit.
6) Be persistent
One thing is certain: business is not for the weak.
You will have failures. You'll burn out.
Sometimes, you'll feel like you've wasted years of your life.
But you need to keep going.
Winners all have at least one thing in common:
They didn't quit.
7) Avoid bad debt
Learning how to leverage debt is a big part of the game.
Cashflow should be your priority so avoid spending it on things like clothes or cars you can't afford.
Instead, learn how to use debt to execute on ideas to grow your business.
8) Stay humble
Once you get a taste of success...
You need to keep your head on straight. The game is just beginning.
No better way to burn it all to the ground than to let success go to your head.
Keep it quiet and humble.
9) See setbacks as lessons
If you've read my threads, you know I've had my fair share of setbacks.
By all logic, they should have ruined me.
Instead, I used failure as a springboard
and leveled up.
Now, I have a ton of insane stories and a boatload of experience.
10) Don't be too proud to learn
"Having it all figured out" is overrated.
You can only stop learning if you DECIDE to stop learning.
You know you've made it when you're the dumbest person in the boardroom.
I believe in the power of positive thinking and my tweets reflect that.
We're all on this journey together, learning and growing as we go.
If my tweets can offer some guidance or inspiration along the way, then I've accomplished my mission.
Stay true to your standards, even when it's hard.
Your integrity is worth more than any temporary compromise.
I became a morning person when I realized you could finish all my work before others even woke up.
If you lack discipline, read this thread:
1. Self discipline is the ability to do what you need to do to reach your goals.
This is where discipline starts, have a clear goal.
Without a clear goal, you won't know where to put your efforts.
2. Have a strong why
A clear goal isn't enough to warrant discipline.
You must have a strong reason to achieve your goal.
With a strong enough 'why' the reps come easier.
3. Your emotions get in the way
The enemy of discipline is emotions.
You know you should go to the gym, but you don't feel like it.
You want to lose weight but crave cheesecake.
The reps you don't feel like doing are the ones that keep you on track.
4. Audit your day
Write everything you do as you go through the day.
Before bed, review your list and note what doesn't align with your goals.
Tomorrow, make it a priority not to do them again.
5. Visualize achieving your goals
Your brain can't tell the difference between real and imagined outcomes.
Imagine achieving your goals visually and your brain will feel it's already accomplished it.
Putting you in a state to take action.
6. Do valuable tasks first
What's the most valuable task you could do today to move closer to your goals?
Make it a habit to do it when you first wake up.
Before email, messages, and boring tasks clutter your calendar.
7. Start small
Change too many habits at once and you're guaranteed to revert to your old habits.
Pick one thing you'd like to change. Make it a habit. Repeat.
8. Have friends hold you accountable
Use social pressure as a motivator.
Ask your friends, business partners, or spouse to hold you accountable to your goals.
Then rise to the occasion. Don't let them down.
9. Don't expect to be perfect
We can't all be Dwayne Johnson.
There will be days when you don't practice discipline.
Don't beat yourself up. Just start again tomorrow.
10. Take care of yourself
Discipline becomes increasingly difficult as you get tired.
• Get plenty of sleep
• Stay hydrated
• Eat healthy
• Exercise
Discipline will always be easier when you're feeling good.
As a man, you don't want to be a twink.
You have to turn yourself into a monster.
Your enemies have to fear you, not laught at you.
Men need a hero's journey.
To go through hardships.
To come from nothing.
To get beaten down.
To fail many times.
To conquer fears.
To then emerge,
A different man.
And finally, win.
History as we know it is a lie.
Pass it along.
Take care of your health.
Take care of your body.
Take care of your mind.
Take care of your soul.
Take care of your kids.
Take care of your family.
Take care of your capital.
Take care of your legacy.
As a man, your duty goes beyond yourself.
Atheism killed the connection to God.
The cult of science tried to explain the unexplainable through human error.
Where there is no purpose, there is no meaning.
Where there is no meaning, chaos, degeneracy, and lawlessness reign.
In a family setting,
A man is happiest when being the leader.
A woman is happiest when being the follower.
Feminism has warped this reality and made them both unhappy.
There is nothing impressive about a man with road rage.
Imagine being so angry, that you can't even drive around without losing your shit.
Pathetic behaviour.
