This is a different time period. Obviously his success can't be repeated. I mean, he lived in a dot-com bubble! It was so much easier back then, there aren't any big tech bubbles going on right now that I can exploit.
( For Mobile Apps, It’s 1996 All Over Again )
So I've been sharing MJ's book with some people I know, and I get this response a lot. "He lived in a different generation, it is harder to make money online now"
I saw that article on Tech Crunch today, and it inspired me to write this.
There are ALWAYS MASSIVE OPPORTUNITIES going on. You just have to open your eyes and LOOK.
I always try to tell them that it doesn't matter where you live or what time period, but the lack of "identifiable and explosive" opportunities is rather a result of how they approach the issue. But they don't listen. They would rather view someone else's success as lucky, rather than a lack of initiative and drive on their own part.
I don't know if it's just my generation, but self accountability seems to be a barren wasteland that people refuse to venture into.
There are always needs, there are always more innovative ways to solve problems that will continue to make people millions.
I swear MJ, sometimes I think you need to do it again in "This generation" and write another book, that will only be good for another 6-9 months until the opportunity is gone and then someone will say, "Well he got lucky with a unique opportunity"
So i'm asking you, please, just repeat the process every 6-9 months so we can take that excuse away from people and make my life easier! :smx4:
