  • 00:02:10

  • 00:02:17

    to go to a concert with your friends
  • 00:02:41
    it's another thing to become the artist
  • 00:02:43
    personally I've played the piano for
  • 00:02:45
    over 10 years I started with classical
  • 00:02:47
    piano and then I learned how to
  • 00:02:48
    improvise with jazz one time I remember
  • 00:02:51
    performing piano to a thousand people
  • 00:02:53
    when I was like 13 that was so fun and
  • 00:02:55
    it's such a cool experience that I hope
  • 00:02:57
    to continue doing in the future but just
  • 00:02:59
    imagine you're built like a Chad you're
  • 00:03:01

  • 00:03:03
    there's another side to you that

    beautiful skill and also one that you
  • 00:03:11
    can enjoy for the rest of your life now
  • 00:03:14
    attractive skill number four is content
  • 00:03:16
    creation becoming a Creator is one of
  • 00:03:18
    the most powerful things you can do
  • 00:03:19
    today I went from Z to 100,000
  • 00:03:22
    subscribers on YouTube in under 6 months
  • 00:03:24
    and I did this all while balancing
  • 00:03:25
    school at Yale having cool hobbies and a
  • 00:03:28
    fun social life guys becoming a Creator
  • 00:03:30
    allows you to document your journey it
  • 00:03:32
    allows you to spread a message and
  • 00:03:34
    impact millions of people you can also
  • 00:03:36
    build a crazy Network like I'm not
  • 00:03:38
    trying to flex but I've connected with
  • 00:03:40
    so many millionaires serial
  • 00:03:42
    entrepreneurs artists actresses and cool
  • 00:03:44
    people and by far the easiest way to
  • 00:03:46
    learn content creation is to start
  • 00:03:49
    literally just start post that first
  • 00:03:51
    video on YouTube and get better each
  • 00:03:53
    time and make sure you have a movement
  • 00:03:55
    don't just Chase views or likes these
  • 00:03:57
    pointless vanity metrics but become a
  • 00:04:00
    Creator who educates and inspires others
  • 00:04:03
    and with time and effort you'll build a
  • 00:04:05
    magnetic personal brand and once you
  • 00:04:07
    have that it's like instant credibility
  • 00:04:09
    you get so many opportunities and you'll
  • 00:04:11
    also build a crazy social network now
  • 00:04:14
    the next attractive skill to have is
  • 00:04:16
    good taste Colin what do you mean by
  • 00:04:18
    good taste like literally I'm talking
  • 00:04:19
    about the ability to have an aesthetic
  • 00:04:21
    sense so for example whenever you see
  • 00:04:23
    something on Instagram that you like you
  • 00:04:25
    screenshot it or add it to an album or
  • 00:04:27
    whenever you see a cool picture or a
  • 00:04:29
    quote on Pinterest save it now you might
  • 00:04:31
    already be doing these things but most
  • 00:04:33
    likely you haven't been doing it
  • 00:04:35
    consciously because what you don't
  • 00:04:37
    realize is that having good tastes is a
  • 00:04:40
    skill knowing what you like is super
  • 00:04:42
    valuable so for example Rick Rubin is
  • 00:04:45
    one of the richest producers of all time
  • 00:04:47
    he's worth more than $300 million and he
  • 00:04:50
    doesn't really know how to play music
  • 00:04:51
    but he has good taste so get into the
  • 00:04:54
    habit of building your taste it's also a
  • 00:04:56
    great way to get to know your unique
  • 00:04:58
    personality over time you can design a
  • 00:05:00
    life that is not only aesthetic but also
  • 00:05:03
    exciting now the next skill on this list
  • 00:05:05
    is programming listen programming is not
  • 00:05:07
    for everyone but it's definitely a
  • 00:05:09
    useful skill to learn because you can
  • 00:05:10
    create a system that repeats actions
  • 00:05:13
    through automation that is what you call
  • 00:05:15
    leverage and Leverage is how you become
  • 00:05:17
    super wealthy personally I study
  • 00:05:19
    computer science at Yale but there's
  • 00:05:20
    just so many free resources online where
  • 00:05:22
    you can learn from now another
  • 00:05:24
    alternative to programming is web design
  • 00:05:26
    it doesn't matter if the year is 2030 or
  • 00:05:28
    2045 if you can build beautiful websites
  • 00:05:31
    you'll make a lot of money because
  • 00:05:33
    there's just so much demand for it also
  • 00:05:35
    nowadays there's so many no code tools
  • 00:05:37
    like webflow or framer so learn how to
  • 00:05:39
    code or design cool websites is another
  • 00:05:41
    high income skill that's super valuable
  • 00:05:43
    and useful now the next attractive skill
  • 00:05:45

    opportunities and you can learn new

  • 00:06:39
    long run if you keep giving without
  • 00:06:40
    asking anything in return you just
  • 00:06:42
    naturally build a crazy network of
  • 00:06:44
    people who are on your side and it's

    fried rice look being able to to cook
  • 00:06:59
    doesn't mean that you have to stay at

    home all the time like me for example I
  • 00:07:03
    love going out and I enjoy going to nice
  • 00:07:05
    dinners with people but the skill of
  • 00:07:07
    cooking is such a basic skill if you

    don't even know how to fry an egg I
  • 00:07:11
    don't know if I can trust you seriously
  • 00:07:13
    also if you have some signature dishes
  • 00:07:14

    sense of humor and a light-heartedness
  • 00:07:36
    in your personality you're not going to
  • 00:07:37
    be charismatic you got to be able to

    be really creative now I was very lucky
  • 00:07:49
    to grow up in a family where I could be
  • 00:07:51
    myself where I was encouraged to have
  • 00:07:53
