The words normal, wealth and freedom don’t belong in the same sentence.
Well, maybe just in one sentence.
There’s nothing normal about acquiring wealth and freedom.
If the process were normal, everyone would do it.
Right?
Well, let me be the first to tell you that a “normal way” doesn’t exist.
Here’s why.
1) Stubborn
You must be stubborn to acquire wealth and freedom.
Why?
Because you have to go against what EVERYONE tells you.
This isn’t something normal people do.
Normal people seek the advice, guidance and opinions of others.
As a result, they get normal results in life.
BIG MISTAKE.
Listen to me…
UNLESS SOMEONE HAS WHAT YOU WANT, DO NOT ASK OR TAKE ADVICE FROM THEM.
Got it?
Listening to what people say is the first mistake people make when chasing wealth and freedom.
People will say you’re wasting your time, and that wealthy and free people were either born rich, are lucky, or do unethical things.
Wrong.
Wealth and freedom comes to stubborn people who ignore what everyone says and chase success until they get it.
No matter how long it takes, no matter how many times they fail, they KEEP GOING!
Do you want wealth and freedom?
Become stubborn.
I have the ability to get WHATEVER I want because I refuse to take no for an answer.
If I want it, it’s mine.
Period.
Whether it takes a month, a year, or 5 years…I WILL HAVE IT!
Normal people quit when results don’t come quickly.
But you see, that’s the problem.
Success doesn’t happen overnight.
If you’re not stubborn and persistent, even when no signs of success are present, you won’t succeed.
Decide what you want, make the decision to persist until it’s yours, and never look back.
2) Lack of endurance
Like I said, you must persist.
The price tag for wealth and freedom is endurance.
Persistence is the road to success, endurance is your vehicle.
Why does endurance work?
The more you persist, the more ideas and realizations you have, and the more progress you make.
It’s that simple.
If you walk into a building that has 1000 doors, and only one of them has a million dollars behind it, how do you guarantee you find it?
You make the decision not to quit until you do.
Eventually, you run out of rooms without money.
The same thing applies when your goal is wealth and freedom.
Eventually, you reach a point where you eliminate failure, and your ONLY options are wealth and freedom.
When you’re persistent, it makes a switch in your mindset where you MUST figure out a way.
Your brain thinks:
“OK, I guess this is something that MUST BE ACHIEVED, let me take it seriously and start sending Alex ideas and techniques on how to succeed, and also make him aware of things that’ll help him”.
Sounds crazy?
Maybe it is.
But trust me, it’s how it works.
However, in case “crazy” is too intense for you, you can always settle for normal.
After all, that’s what most people do.
3) Party over priority
To achieve wealth and freedom, you MUST make it a priority.
Instead of going out and having a good time, you must dedicate time to your goals.
When I started building this blog, I would stay in either writing articles or working on one of my books.
While my friends were out having fun, I was at home working.
…And I have ZERO regrets.
It was one of the best decisions I ever made because look at the IMMENSE blog I’ve built.
If you want BIG success, you must make BIG effort.
If you want normal results, just listen and do what everyone else tells you to do.
Talk soon,
