Money is a female. You attract her the same way you attract a high quality female. Meaning… 1. No pedestals – If you put $100k+/months on a pedestal, then the likelihood of you hitting $100k/months? Slim to none. Take money off the pedestal and stop looking up at it. Instead, look it boldly in the eye and on equal footing. 2. No neediness – The more you need money, the less you make. The less you need, the more you make. Hardest time to close a sale is when you need the sale to close. Easiest time to close a sale is when you don’t need the sale to close. 3. No lack – The part of you that desperately wants x is precisely the part you must dissolve to get x. Otherwise, you’ll interact with the market through the part that lacks and money will pick up on your inner poverty unconsciously. And close its heart to you (the Universe cannot support your idea of being a peasant full of lack because it’s not true – you are far greater than you’ve been led to believe. This is why when you’re desperately full of lack and need x, you never get x). 4. Larger than life mission – When a man is on a mission, he inevitably finds a bad girl with a good heart to take over the world with. When a man is on a mission, he inevitably finds himself being rewarded with large sums of money indirectly. 5. Strong positioning in the *right* market – The market/industry/vertical you choose determines your earning potential more than any other external factor. If you stand under the rain, you get wet. If you position yourself 3ish years ahead of where the world is going, you get rich. 6. Exceptional communication abilities – You can be a starving artist and still get a high quality girl by simply articulating a larger than life, compelling vision of the future and inviting the girl to partake in the adventure with you. You can be broke as a joke and still drum up millions by simply articulating a larger than life, compelling vision of the future and inviting the investor to partake in the adventure with you. 7. Real value – At the end of the day, the games fade and only value remains (either tangible or perceived). Are you really that guy or not? The market finds out eventually and rewards you accordingly. Thanks for reading. Your friend, /tej P.S. If you’re not that guy, here’s how you can become that guy: Stop looking for shortcuts (you cannot hack the market long term). Instead: - Adopt the self image of that guy. - Adopt the execution habits of that guy. - Adopt the skill stack of that guy. - Adopt the focus of that guy. - Adopt the work ethic of that guy. - Adopt the business processes of that guy. And ultimately become: That guy.
