QUOTES:
“People are afraid of not getting validated or they’re afraid of judgment that they perceive from people that exist or don’t exist in their lives.” [3:43]
“I didn’t lose the five years, I lost the assets, which were not the most valuable thing that I had earned over that time. It was the skills, the experience and the character traits, I still had those.” [9:19]
“There’s a misnomer around education, [...] They think that exposure to information is learning and I don’t think that’s true, or at least it hasn’t been for me.” [12:00]
“Most people have a dramatic underestimation of how much volume it takes to be successful.” [12:53]
“Be okay with the fact that you are going to suck and it is okay to suck, you should expect to suck, and it would be unreasonable for you to be good if you haven’t done it before, [...] are you asking the universe to be unreasonable for you by expecting to be good on your first try.”[14:02]
“If you can wait a year, you can make a ton of money. [...] If you can wait a decade you’re going to be above the one percent, [...] do the doing without seeing the result.” [26:09]
“Most people had a graveyard of failures before they had their actual first success.” [34:17]
“With 20 hours of focused effort most people can be pretty decent at something, [...] but most people spend years waiting to do the first hour.” [34:26]
“When you hear somebody speak and they really resonate with you, they give you the chills, you get excited, it’s because they’re either putting words to something that you felt but you didn’t know how to articulate and now it’s super concrete in your mind or they make you realize that you believe something that wasn’t true.” Tom Bilyeu [54:18]
“You’ve got to optimize for the game to be fun when you’re losing.” Tom Bilyeu [1:08:39]
“I judged myself so much on not being happy all of the time because I thought there was something wrong with the fact that I wasn’t happy that I drove myself insane not being happy rather than just being like, [...] ‘I’m just going to do the stuff and just f*ck happiness, for a minute.’” [1:21:03]
“The difference between rich people and poor people, successful people and not successful people is the degree to which they attribute or give power to their circumstance.” [1:33:23]
“You may blame your circumstances but no one else will care.” [1:34:54]

It's recommended to save at least 15% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings over time.

[@veronica.baker1]

For me, I believe retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My wife and I both spent same number of years in the civil service, she invested through a wealth manager and myself through the 401k. We both still earning after our retirement.

[@hunter-bourke21]

It's unfortunate most people don't have such information. I don't really blame people who panic. Lack of information can be a big hurdle.

That affects everybody in the biz teams, including in my organization. It's just a time of great anxiety and uncertainty" Says Meta President.

[@Andrian-ch3on]

Time and tide will not wait for any person. That means we must pay attention to how new technologies, and specifically AI, will make it easier for companies to become more efficient. Simply, this companies may not need a lot of workers, your bank may not need many staff. Your insurer may not need many workers. And the list keeps growing.

[@RickMckee-nq4ni]

Is it time to require mandatory payment where even if you have no staff, you have to commit a certain percentage of your revenue which will be used to distribute to citizens as a "wage" alternative?

[@AndrianWiener]

It has nothing to do with AI. Economic distress in America is enormous. Many banks have gone under. Inflation is biting harder. Ukrain miscalculation is obvious. Facebook has been using AI in most of its features and products for more than 15 years now, so Ai has nothing to do with it. They embarked on unprofitable projects. And over hired. Apple has never laid off employees despite the economic downturn. They did well in hiring and never had failed projects. Metaverse failed. Gaming projects failed. Fintech, Lira failed. In the last 20 months, Sanbberg left, nobody is there to "tame the lion" Most Tech companies went woke: hired talents in order to prevent competitors from having access, they kept them idle, just to hijack a pool of talent. Over hired without proper assessment and protection. The existing projects couldn't turn in expected revenue, even before inflation war in USA set it. Let's put it in perspective without blaming AI. 95% of big tech have been using AI in the last 15 years. Building a passive income is a real hedge against inflation. Such is a thing that won't fail when the govt and the big tech fails.

@@afinkeln please look at the 1:16:40 to the end again... You are exactly twice my age... And probably don't need a kid to tell you this but... Just remember that THIS moment is inevitable... No amount of grieving and regretting past choices or action will change the current reality. You ONLY have a choice on how you respond (not react) to the current moment and form the future you want. You seem to have accepted that you are an abject waste of life and a failure... That in itself is the most crippling belief one can have. All our actions and thoughts depend on the identity we associate ourselves with. For example a guy who think of himself as a failure would not even try to do something hard after that belief is consolidated, on the other hand a guy who thinks of himself as a winner will try it all and somewhere he'll win. I myself though of myself as a failure and an abject waste of life until recently became of some mistakes and inaction. But then everything told me that having this belief will NEVER do anything positive for my life. I'd also like to quote Alex hormozi here... He said something along the lines of- I'd trade every single penny that I have just to go back in time ten years and this will keep on happening as my wealth and age increases. That kinda clicked a switch in my head... That if any billionaire would give all his possessions just to be in a position that I am in... Then why tf am I not living this moment consciously?! You should know that Warren would give up all his wealth to be the 36 year old you. THIS MOMENT IS INEVITABLE. RESPOND TO THE CURRENT MOMENT CONSCIOUSLY. Nothing matters... One day all will turn into dust and no one will remember you... Live the current moment instead of suffering it. Forget the things that you can't control and just fucus on what you can. Enjoy even the suffering because THIS MOMENT is all we have... Don't suffer you past and your imagination... There are 8 billion people on this planet... Most of them just respond to life... They aren't ever conscious... Then they die. Fuck that.

What if this is what its suppose to look like? What if this is what it looks like when you are on your way, on your journey and instantly I felt better.

Alex is the first persom to talk about the traits and NOT the "habits" that most people tell us to do in order to be successful. That is the most true statement because as he said there are rich people who are unhealthy and wakeup late. It's not about the habits. Each one is different... it's about the 3 TRAITS!

Alex is a fascinating case study on entrepreneurship. I remember gym launch from years ago. I subbed his YT at 10k just last year. He was talking about how content mattered more than video editing and production. He was doubling down on that idea. I remember his company websites looked like scams and phishing. Even his Acquisition logo is terrible. He was an absolute gem trapped inside awful digital production. He was already a millionaire so I could see how production quality wouldn't be high priority, but in the past year he realized you have to authentically connect online to sell online. BOOM! He hired one of GaryVee's old producers...Hit the podcast circuit and EXPLODED. I'm very excited for him and his wife. He has great content.

He is so straightforward, makes it so clear, and he is so humble. This should be required coaching, not just for business, but for life. All the theory in the world is useless without action and that action must be continuous, no matter how hard it gets. That thought alone is worth gold. I'm searching for more of his stuff.

Liked the reference point discussion. When it comes down to it, I suppose it is fear that stops people from achieving certain goals and even if you fail that's fine because it's the only way to adjust for success anyways. Plus when facing your mortality, none of it matters anyways so you mind as well do it or regret not doing it. This was a very nice video.

I've watched your podcast countless times, and I am grateful for your guests and your questions. However, knowing that you and Alex are abundantly littered with money.... How much money does one really need to be successful, or happy? I know that I don't really need all that much. For me, my health, my children, my relationships and my ability to express myself through my creativity are my true wealth. As long as I can provide the necessities for them, as well as for myself, along with the deep love that I hold and share, I am the wealthiest person on the earth. Millions or billions of dollars are truly insignificant to me, and can only create a great deal of responsibility and stress. Make life simple. Be healthy. Love those who are closest to you. Be creative with the gifts that God gave you to share. And, be as presently in the moment of enjoying these blessings as you can. Nothing can be greater than this. I say this because neither of you seem to be any better off -- with all your financial wealth -- than I am.

[@mephis247]

I think the reason we get held up in the shiny objects syndrome is our fear of failing.. We mistakenly want something that will succeed right away..yet the rule is when beginning we must fail anyway. So we should just select one thing..focus in it by running 100 real world work experiments...fail & adjust.. 100 more experiments.. fail & adjust...then with patience& delayed gratification & more work under guidance of a mentor adjust again to succeed. Once something succeeds hold onto that and multiply that exact thing 100 times to a six figure income..multiply more that thing to even a seven figure. I think that's the gist of what he said..which I've never heard because it includes the failure & discipline cycles involved which most online gurus avoid.

[@SotsTeam]

Word, whenever I have read a book that is supposed to be incredibly educational , I often have felt that my personal life experience is more valuable.. and while I can pick up certain hacks to implement into my life, it's never been a book that has changed my life, it's been me going for it and making my own mistakes, and therefore learning from them and becoming better at something. This is especially true with spiritual books where a guru has laid out the truth about life, etc.. it has just never resonated with me bc I have either a) already learnt the lessons they are describing b) I have my own personal understanding of something, without needing someone else to tell me what is the 'correct' way of approaching/understanding something. This is obviously a very general explanation, and there are certainly exceptions where the author is so good at describing human psyche from an angle that I possibly could not come up with about a specific subject from that specific angle due to not having dedicated my life into trying to explain it in this way.. if this makes sense .. :D

The truth is that this is really not as difficult as many people presume it to be. It requires a certain level of diligence, no doubt, which is something ordinary investors lack, and so a financial advisor often comes in very handy.

Definitely love this!
