Seriously!
I’m not selling a course here, or anything for that matter.
There are no affiliate links in the post, nothing.
But, there is one thing, that I know, will make you financially free, no bullshit.
My Journey So Far
During my journey to financial freedom (I’m still on it), In 2 years:
– I’ve spoken to 3 multi-millionaires, and taken advice from them
– Watched 3,000+ videos on the topic.
– Read 3 million+ words on the topic.
– Spent around $10,000 on courses.
– Started an online business that holds own-branded stock (not dropshipping) & took it to over $100,000 in its 1st year.
– Started another online business which also holds stock & took it from $0 to $7,000 in its 1st month, currently on month 4.
– Started 5+ online businesses that failed miserably.
– Started a new blog in the last 2 weeks.
So, What’s My Point Here?
I’ll come to it, soon.
I’ve heard so much advice from finance bros throughout my journey, and I’m absolutely sick of it.
They’ll tell you to do this, and it’ll guarantee wealth, or don’t do this, because this will happen.
It’s the same shit that’s regurgitated a thousand times on YouTube and the Internet.
One man’s shit, is another man’s treasure.
And these bros take it literally.
I’ve been recommended a website to make money that’ll pay me $1 in 3 days, and they say ‘it’s passive income’ because some other bullshitter said it 6 months earlier.
They’ve asked me to buy their dropshipping course, because they took 30 students from $0 to $50,000 per month in just 6 months, even when I know myself that dropshippers make pennies in profit.
I’ve had trader bros DM me asking me to pay for FOREX signals with a 90% win rate when I know that win rate is impossible.
YouTube bros have told me to try YouTube automation which can make me millions passively, I just have to get ChatGPT to write a script, Canva for the thumbnail, then AI voiceover, and eventually outsource.
No. 1 — It’s not passive at all.
No. 2 — Not as easy as they make it sound.
No one wants to make an honest living anymore
90% just want to scam people, and there are desperate people who fall for it, myself included (some time ago).
I’ve smartened up now.
There’s only 2 things that smarten you up for the get-rich-quick schemes from these ‘holding a wad of cash to their ears, stood next to a rented Lamborghini business bros’;
1. Personal experience through failure and loss,
2. and the advice of someone who’s been through it, so you don’t have to.
Don’t Waste Your Money On Courses
These online business courses CLAIM to teach you how to create a logo, build your own website, do market research, find a product, test the demand with ads, scale your business, and outsource.
The 1st 3 things I could do before I bought the course. The other stuff, to my surprise, I could find on YouTube.
By then it was too late.
The money’s gone, and the refund policy requires me to set up a website, pay for a domain, and try selling a product before I can request a refund.
The REAL reason I wanted to buy the courses was because I needed a mentor.
I didn’t know that back then, but I know now.
These courses don’t give you that though.
At least not the ones I paid $1000s for. I doubt the cheaper ones will either.
I wanted someone to point me in the right direction, answer questions, and give me guidance when I get stuck.
Courses don’t do that.
You’ll get a Facebook group to join, but they’ll give you evasive answers because they don’t want to give too much away.
So, What’s The Secret That Will Guarantee Financial Success?
Don’t quit. Simple.
Wait, hear me out.
People have a tendency to overcomplicate stuff.
There is and always will be, just one thing that can ever guarantee financial success or even success of any kind, and that’s perseverance.
Scroll back up and look at my achievements.
I’m not saying this to brag, (I’m not that type of guy), and I’ve seen this time and time again.
Even the millionaires I’ve spoken to have hammered this point home so many times.
Perseverance is the key to success.
You can’t succeed at something if you quit.
There’s always a threshold where something becomes so difficult that you feel like quitting.
It happens with everything, not just business, but business is what we’re about here.
Think of it as the universe’s way of filtering out the good from the garbage.
If there was no testing part of a journey, then everyone would be rich. As harsh as that sounds, it would destroy society (future post, maybe).
90% of people quit their business venture in the first 3 months.
9% haven’t quit per se, but they don’t put in enough effort to make their business work, so they’re ‘passively quitting’.
1% of people go all in and give it everything they’ve got. They get to that testing threshold, where things get tough and drawn out, but they still carry on.
Those are the people who see success.
The Takeaway
People these days are SO LAZY, that success comes too easy for those who don’t quit.
It’s actually EASY to become successful. It really is.
The blueprint is so obvious and clear.
There are an INSANE number of ways to become rich, now more than ever.
The key is to not quit, and eventually, the universe WILL allow you to become rich.
