Episode 57 of that podcast was great. I better start at the beginning and listen to them all in order before applying what I've just learned.

#Gold. #Bookmarked. You guys are awesome. I love these types of threads. I'm going to reread all of these before I start my own business one day. ;)

Organizing, To Do lists, planners, time keeping apps, etc.

Useful tools if used right, but lots of action-faking too. I've seen guys with onenote apps full of pages and pages of notes but yet no action was taken. (wait, that was *MY* onenote app I saw...)

I could have made millions last year but X happened.

I would be a millionaire right now but X got in the way.

If only I did X when I had the chance, I'd be rich right now.

That guy on Shark Tank stole my idea.

I made xx,xxx last month!

(Actually did xx,xxx in gross, pre-tax sales on commission for someone else last month, on a product they didn't manufacture, and brought home xxx).

I read The 48 Laws of Power, literally everything in life conforms to that framework. I got laid off because I was trying so hard not to outshine the master.

I read 4HWW, and realized that the best way to start a business is to work less and take more vacation.

I'm opening a restaurant.

I'm starting a lawn care business.

I've got a shopify, so I'm a CEO.

I moved (to Arizona, Thailand, NYC, etc.), so I'm basically a millionaire.

I failed because of limiting beliefs.

I'll start as soon as I get the right mentor.

Does anybody know a good sales guy I could hire?

I haven't read TMF .

Should I learn to code?

Is an INSIDERS's subscription worth it?

I found the 1 thing holding me back! (I'm guilty of that one)

I'm waiting on somebody to call me back.

Craigslist, Ebay, Amazon is full of scammers.

So I'm thinking about trying an MLM.

Exactly what business are you in?

Nobody buys in January.

I don't have any limiting beliefs to conquer.

...Guilty as Charged.
*sigh*

Most of the ones I have posted are from personal experience. The reason these flow so easy is because we have ALL been there.

Some easy motivation though for you. MJ has paraphrased the concept of working today like nobody works so you can live in the future like nobody can live.

I was talking with one of my kids today. The days all somewhat blend together now. "Vacation days" don't mean much when every day you can literally do what ever you want. So... sacrifice now. Nobody will understand it. Five years from now, when you can do what ever you want because you sacrificed while they were playing... they still won't get it.

I rent office space from Regus. The parking lot is EMPTY today.

Do you have today off your 9-5 job? Then you sure the F*ck better be working on your own freedom. If you are watching bowl games, nursing your hangover, and taking the day off (even though you are not financially free) you might be a slowlaner.

Change it.

Turns out, we are actually action fake experts.

Go figure

A successful man was asked - What's your secret of success? He replies - good decisions. How do you know what's a good decision? He says - Experience. He's then asked - How did you get experienced? His reply - Bad decisions.
