Some of my favorite lessons of his are:
1. Money loves speed. Ideally, try to make money on the same day. You got an idea to do X at 8am today and by 6pm you've made $500. That's speed. Money doesn't like a lot of waiting. Of course, it may not be applicable in 100% cases but if you're not making money within 1 month after busting your a$$, you need to do something else.
2. Until you are a big rich company or have lots of money, contracts are not real.
3. Most of you don’t know what a business is. It’s money in to a bank FIRST. Cash is first.
4. You need to get good at talking/speaking. Everything in life is basically the same thing. People walk into a room to say things. Talking and selling are the same thing. AVOID UMS OR AHHS in your speech. Make sure you orate yourself properly.
5. Money can not be made. You can only take money from other people! Money is like water, and money is always moving. Why should people give you their money? You have to convince others to give you their money
6. Nobody is broke. They’re simply just buying other things. You have to make sure your offer is great. During corona, people were buying lots of stuff like alcohol, tissue, traveling, adult entertainment content and so on even though they had little money! Sell the end result. People will always buy shit.
7. Command respect. Be strong and masculine. Physical presence is a real thing, it surely impacts the other person to do business with you, whether you like it or not
8. Forge the patience crap that all gurus like to repeat. Have patience for 10-30 years blah blah blah. NO, you got to get rich now. The time to get rich is running out. These are some of the last years a normal person can get rich.
You paid for this 'advice' did you?
