Nov 13 Everyone gets what they want. https://t.co/CXg6o1ZLWG 1.3k 56 73 96.5k 53 .
Nov 12 Failure is to be expected, not avoided. Failure is feedback, not judgment. 3.7k 573 243 91.7k 74 .
Nov 12 We seek the freedom to choose what we do rather than freedom from doing things at all. Not having anything to do is just as miserable as doing things you don't want to do. Retirement starts when you do what you want, not when you stop doing. That's what death is. 1.2k 114 156 39.3k 265 .
Nov 12 Just because something hurts you, doesn't make it evil. 1.6k 137 238 46k 55 .
Nov 12 Whenever you sell something, you want to decrease the number of things you need someone to believe and increase the number of reasons to believe it. 1.2k 72 158 45.4k 148 .
Nov 12 I didn’t send emails to my list or have a real website until we crossed $30,000,000 per year. Gasp. (Mostly because I didn’t have the bandwidth and what I was doing was working.) There’s no one way to win. But spreading yourself too thin is a sure way to lose. 1.6k 89 140 60.4k 267 .
Nov 11 People stop rooting when you start winning because they only love an underdog as long as it stays an underdog. 4.5k 683 201 97.2k 110 .
Nov 11 What will separate you from your peers is not the size of your goals but the size of your commitment to them. What you're willing to give up - that they aren't - to see it through. 2.1k 237 182 55.6k 180 .
Nov 11 If you're afraid, write down what happens as a result of the bad thing occurring. Actually, play it out. 99% of the time, it's smaller than you think and probably worth the risk of going for it. Worst case is disappointment, not death. 2.1k 201 196 57.1k 236 .
Nov 11 Fear only exists in the vague, not the specific. Our brains imagine the vague and make it mean death. But that's not reality. You probably won't go homeless, starve and die. Someone might just say something you wouldn't prefer. You'll survive. 1.4k 124 204 43k 246 .
Nov 11 Read this if you're afraid of disappointing your parents. Worst case: They speak to you less for a little, they speak to you a lot more for a little, or nothing changes. All 3 are better than waiting for them to die to start living your life. 1.3k 95 155 48.9k 245 .
Nov 10 You get through the lonely chapter of life where you’re more ambitious than your old friend group but don’t have enough proof for your desired friend group by focusing on the work, not the scoreboard. The scoreboard matters, but you can’t score without first being good. And you can’t get good without first being bad. 2k 171 129 89.1k 320 .
Nov 10 Suffering is a fixed cost of life. It’s guaranteed. Which makes learning to enjoy life while suffering one of the most valuable skills you can learn. 2.5k 273 187 58.5k 152 .
Nov 10 The reason it’s taking so long is because you’re in a rush. People radically underestimate how many repetitions it takes to get good at something. You keep hopping opportunities and killing your progress instead of sticking with one thing long enough to actually get good. 3k 343 243 60.4k 274 .
Nov 09 There are no perfect businesses. And waiting longer to start just delays how long it takes you to figure that out. 1.5k 109 186 45.3k 114 .
Nov 09 The fastest way to get richer is to stop pursuing opportunities with low ceilings. The hard part about this is most people don’t know their opportunity has a ceiling until they see one with a higher ceiling. This ignorance debt is what we lose in years to pay down. 2.2k 173 145 70.9k 267 .
Nov 09 If you’re in your 20s and have no experience, you have the greatest advantage - which is you have nothing to lose. Use what you do have (time & energy) to get what you don’t have (skills & leverage). 1.9k 170 182 55.9k 208 .
Nov 09 Sales is a lot like poker. You don't play your hand, you play the man in front of you. You don't sell the product, you sell the prospect. If you can learn someone's why, you can sell them almost any how. 2.6k 229 152 84.1k 203 .
Nov 08 The person who speaks the most in the sale, loses. 3.2k 222 182 88.3k 50 .

Nov 08 You'd be amazed how effective these 4 words can be to keep everyone focused. Memorize this: “Great idea. Not now.” 2.2k 129 202 61k 116 .
Nov 08 Solutions are like paintings... You need to apply coats of paint. Let it dry. Come back and look at it again. Then apply the next coat. Most business owners have the intellectual capacity to solve their problems, they just don’t have the time to let the paint dry. So they only think one layer deep. But all the alpha comes from the 2nd-nth coats. That's where the masterpieces come from. 1.4k 127 123 57.6k 390 .
Nov 07 The biggest risk to your business are your 2nd and 3rd best ideas you keep working on but shouldn't. 1.8k 125 156 59.2k 100 .
Nov 07 The fastest way to make more money is to sell the same thing you already are for more money. 2.2k 143 211 57.8k 92 .
Nov 06 When things are going bad, try a lot of stuff. Because you have a high chance of making it better. When things are going well, don't try a lot of stuff. Because you have a high chance of making it worse. 2.7k 295 212 61.6k 203 .

Nov 05 There are two types of people in this world: 1) Those who talk shit 2) Those who do shit You won't receive the first from the second. 2k 206 200 56.9k 135 .
Nov 05 You cannot make yourself exceptional and live a normal life. To make yourself exceptional, you must live an exceptional life. You must become the exception. 3.6k 466 319 94.4k 157 .
Nov 05 Friendly reminder that it's normal for normal people to not understand why you do what you do when you have different goals than them. 2.4k 268 209 65k 134 .
Nov 04 When you want to be the .01%, there’s no greater waste of time than explaining yourself to people who actively don’t support you. 2.4k 238 170 75.8k 129 .
Nov 04 Many people say they want to be in the top 1% or top 0.1%, or even top 0.01% - but saying that has zero bearing on whether it happens. Most business owners wildly underestimate the amount of volume that is required to win. Achievement comes from actions, not aspirations. 1.6k 140 231 50.3k 273 .
Nov 04 The most important success principle is consistency. Being able to keep doing the same thing day after day without immediate satisfaction. The problem is, to witness consistency, you need to be consistent. 3.1k 366 303 73k 206 .
Nov 04 What success is for you when you’re 20 will be different when you’re 30 and it will be different when you’re 40. And that’s okay. Changing your mind with new information is a sign of maturity, not inconsistency. 1.8k 148 226 48.9k 213 .
Nov 03 The only thing more contagious than a virus is belief. Belief that you can - and - belief that you can't. Surround yourself with people who help you catch the right kind. 2.4k 269 269 54.7k 173 .
Nov 03 Difficult problems are rarely solved with more money and almost always solved with more effort. 1.8k 147 241 50.9k 95 .

Nov 02 You don't get burnt our from working too much. You get burnt out when the things you work on no longer give you the same joy they once did, or that joy comes at too long of a delay. You're not working too much. You're getting too little. 2.8k 232 233 77.1k 238 .

Nov 01 The only people who are unhated are unknown. 2.3k 225 226 65.7k 44 .

Oct 31 The paradox of readiness is you want to feel ready before you start, but you become ready by starting. 2.6k 356 165 62.4k 102 .
Oct 31 If you can do it when it’s hard, you can keep doing it under any conditions. If you only wait to start when it’s easy, you’ll either never start, or, you’ll quit the moment it gets hard again (which it always does). So you might as well start when it’s hard. 2.2k 240 171 51.1k 261 .
Oct 31 If you attempt anything great, you will get hate. Period. But if the hatred comes from someone who represents the opposite of your values - then you’re doing it right. Zero. And I mean zero - great people had zero enemies. 2.8k 286 257 67k 224 .
Oct 30 The best content to consume to learn entrepreneurship is reality. You’ll learn more from your first 100 cold calls than you will from reading every sales book in the world. 2.8k 248 218 63.2k 173 .
Oct 30 On discipline: If you want to get to where you want to go, your frustration tolerance has to get stronger. And the good news, is that's a skill, which means you can get better at it. 2.5k 276 187 63.5k 182 .
Oct 30 More only works if you have feedback loops to get better. More for the sake of more doesn't move the needle. 1.6k 145 244 44.3k 109 .
Oct 30 The higher you go. The better you are, the better the opportunities you have to say no to. You feel regret because you’re imagining the upside of the path you didn't take but not the downside you didn't get. 1.3k 97 194 38.6k 208 .
