Look specifically at the lessons, they are good. All of them. A couple specific ones that most people get wrong:
#1— this point alone most people miss because they read the 4 hour workweek and think a successful entrepreneur is supposed to work 4 hours/week and print money.
No.
80 hour weeks create 4 hour weeks that print money.
#3— I'm in awe that almost no aspiring entrepreneurs do this. It's 5th grade math, but everyone skips this step. This 12 year old can do it, so you can too.
#4— Listen to those you aspire to be like, and get advice from them. Then just do what they say. It's not rocket science. Seek out someone who's done it, and follow their roadmap. Then, surround yourself with other high achievers. If you surround yourself with lazy people, you will be lazy too.
YOU ARE THE COMPOSITE OF THE FIVE PEOPLE YOU SPEND THE MOST TIME WITH.
CHOOSE WISELY.
