00:00:00
recording this today I'm a 45-year-old
00:00:02
multi-millionaire But if I could go back
00:00:04
and talk to my 20-year-old self and give
00:00:06
them some advice here are the 60 things
00:00:08
I would share Number one stop waiting
00:00:10
for the right time Just make the time
00:00:12
right Most people the most important
00:00:14
thing they got to do is just make a
00:00:15
decision Stop waiting to get ready and
00:00:18
just do it Number two broke people buy
00:00:21
distractions Rich people buy time You
00:00:23
have to start investing in things that
00:00:25
are going to save you time Think about
00:00:26
wash and fold laundry or meal prepper or
00:00:28
using the apps that bring stuff to you
00:00:30
so you don't spend your time running a
00:00:31
bunch of errands Number three your 20s
00:00:34
is when you get good Your 30s is when
00:00:36
you get rich and your 40s is when you
00:00:39
get wise I look at my life in 10year
00:00:41
increments The first 10 was to develop
00:00:43
the skill to become valuable The next 10
00:00:46
was to figure out how to make money with
00:00:47
that skill The last 10 was using that to
00:00:49
create my empire You have to dedicate
00:00:52
yourself in decades to one focus Number
00:00:54
four buy the way you want to be bought
00:00:56
from Most people are so cheap they get
00:00:59
mad when buyers are cheap with them but
00:01:01
they're the ones that put the energy out
00:01:03
there So if you want people to easily
00:01:04
buy from you easily buy from other
00:01:06
people Number five winners lose more
00:01:08
than losers ever will Most people are
00:01:11
scared to fail but that's only true if
00:01:13
you don't get the feedback If you take a
00:01:16
shot on goal and you miss but you learn
00:01:17
how to take a better shot on goal then
00:01:19
that is actually a win Don't be scared
00:01:21
of failure Embrace it Number six
00:01:24
self-esteem is the reputation you have
00:01:26
with yourself If every time you make a
00:01:28
commitment to yourself you let yourself
00:01:30
down by not keeping that commitment then
00:01:32
you erode your self-esteem your
00:01:34
self-worth and you'll never fight for
00:01:35
what you think you deserve Number seven
00:01:37
if it's not a hell yes it's a hard no My
00:01:40
frame is very simple I ask myself if
00:01:42
somebody asked me to do the thing they
00:01:44
want me to do and it was today would I
00:01:46
say yes If the answer is no cuz I'm busy
00:01:48
then it's probably no Even the good
00:01:51
stuff is a no Because if I don't say no
00:01:53
then I won't have the space to say yes
00:01:54
to the great Number eight say yes until
00:01:58
you can afford to say no You say yes
00:02:00
when you have a lot of opportunities but
00:02:02
then if you're good you get a lot more
00:02:03
requests Then you got to learn to say no
00:02:06
when things no longer serve you Number
00:02:08
nine the best way to predict the future
00:02:10
is to attract it Most people get
00:02:12
confused cuz they think they got to
00:02:14
create success My philosophy is that I
00:02:16
attract success I pull my future into my
00:02:19
present by being very clear on what I
00:02:21
want to achieve and taking action Number
00:02:23
10 you can't complain about the outcomes
00:02:25
you didn't get from the work you didn't
00:02:27
do Stop expecting things to be easy
00:02:30
They're not and they never will be
00:02:32
Because if you're not doing the work
00:02:34
then you can't get the outcome Number 11
00:02:36
broke people talk about people Rich
00:02:38
people talk about ideas Just listen to
00:02:41
yourself when you're with your friends
00:02:42
Are you talking about other people or
00:02:44
you're talking about possibility Are you
00:02:46
talking about ideas Are you talking
00:02:47
about creation Or you're focusing on
00:02:49
talking about the easiest thing to talk
00:02:50
about which is about other people that
00:02:52
aren't even there Number 12 don't take
00:02:55
criticism from people you wouldn't take
00:02:57
advice from My philosophy is very simple
00:02:59
I only take advice or criticism from
00:03:01
people who are already where I want to
00:03:02
be or have done the thing I want to do
00:03:04
Number 13 How you do anything is how you
00:03:08
do everything Most people discount the
00:03:10
small things but those small things lead
00:03:12
into big things If you take care of your
00:03:14
environment then the business will be
00:03:16
taken care of If you take care of your
00:03:17
space then your team will be taken care
00:03:19
of Focus on doing the small things right
00:03:22
to get the big things to come to life
00:03:24
Number 14 the quality of your life is
00:03:27
determined by the quality of your habits
00:03:29
So you got to figure out what are the
00:03:30
three to five things that if you do
00:03:32
every day will set you up for success
00:03:35
Number 15 the best revenge is massive
00:03:38
success When I was growing up I was that
00:03:40
kid that the other kids in my
00:03:42
neighborhood weren't allowed to play
00:03:43
with Now I earned that label and trust
00:03:45
me I didn't always make the best
00:03:46
decisions But when I decided to turn my
00:03:48
life around I didn't focus on proving
00:03:50
them wrong I just focused on becoming
00:03:52
undeniable Number 16 winners focus on
00:03:55
winning Losers focus on winners If you
00:03:58
compare yourself to everybody else then
00:04:00
you're always looking for why you're not
00:04:01
good enough And the truth is you're only
00:04:03
competing against one person and that's
00:04:04
you from the past Number 17 Most people
00:04:07
are too afraid of looking stupid to ever
00:04:10
get good at anything Think about all the
00:04:11
people you see on social media The
00:04:13
reason they're good is because they
00:04:15
decided to start Even though in their
00:04:17
head trust me cuz I'm one of them I
00:04:19
thought I have nothing to share People
00:04:21
are going to think I'm dumb This is dumb
00:04:23
I still decide to do it because if you
00:04:25
think everything makes you look dumb
00:04:27
you'll never try anything Number 18 It's
00:04:29
not about having time It's about making
00:04:31
time The truth is nobody creates time
00:04:34
Nobody has extra time We all have the
00:04:35
same amount of time You either decide to
00:04:37
allocate it properly or you don't You're
00:04:39
100% accountable for that Number 19 Your
00:04:41
mind will believe what you repeatedly
00:04:43
tell it Anytime somebody asks me "How
00:04:45
you doing Dan?" I always answer the same
00:04:48
way Incredible Incredible Freaking
00:04:50
amazing Awesome Thanks for asking Why
00:04:53
Because you will believe what you
00:04:55
repeatedly say So I reprogram my mind
00:04:57
using mantras like that and many others
00:04:59
to keep myself focused on who I want to
00:05:01
become Number 20 80% of your problems
00:05:04
would be solved if you just went to bed
00:05:06
on time It's kind of crazy but this
00:05:08
simple life lesson will change
00:05:09
everything for you Set an alarm for when
00:05:12
you go to bed and just honor it Get to
00:05:14
sleep Nothing exciting happens late at
00:05:17
night when you can have an early start
00:05:18
to your day Number 21 The problem isn't
00:05:21
lack of resources it's lack of
00:05:23
resourcefulness Most people think well I
00:05:25
don't have the money to start that or
00:05:27
the friend group or the experience The
00:05:29
truth is most people that have won in
00:05:30
life they're just more resourceful They
00:05:32
don't make a list of things that tell
00:05:34
them they can't do something They get
00:05:35
good at finding the resources needed to
00:05:37
solve the problems Number 22 learn to be
00:05:40
alone without being lonely One of the
00:05:42
most powerful skills and processes I've
00:05:45
learned is become the person who needs
00:05:47
nothing from anybody If I can be happy
00:05:49
with nothing then I'm going to be
00:05:50
ecstatic with a lot Number 23 work while
00:05:54
they sleep so you can live like they
00:05:55
dream Most people would rather sleep in
00:05:58
and snooze on their life but you're
00:06:00
different You're going to get up early
00:06:02
every day do the hard things and live a
00:06:04
life that 99% of people only dream of
00:06:06
Number 24 you teach people how to treat
00:06:09
you If somebody does something that I
00:06:10
don't agree with I say it right away I
00:06:13
don't accept people stepping all over me
00:06:15
Number 25 money is a tool not the goal I
00:06:18
think of money like a battery It's an
00:06:20
energy source And we want to use money
00:06:22
as a tool to improve our life You don't
00:06:24
want to hoard it Number 26 If you're
00:06:27
always available you're not valuable You
00:06:29
should be the kind of person that puts
00:06:31
themselves out there so everybody knows
00:06:33
who you are You should be easy to find
00:06:35
but hard to get a hold of That's what
00:06:37
makes you valuable Number 27 You don't
00:06:39
attract what you want You attract what
00:06:41
you are Most people think they got to do
00:06:44
more to be successful I would argue you
00:06:46
have to be more It's not do then become
00:06:49
It's actually become then do Number 28
00:06:52
No response is a response and a powerful
00:06:54
one You don't have to reply to every
00:06:56
email that comes to you You don't have
00:06:58
to answer every phone call and you don't
00:06:59
have to reply to every text Don't feel
00:07:01
like you need to explain yourself to
00:07:02
everyone Number 29 You either get better
00:07:05
or you get bitter I remember going to my
00:07:07
high school reunion and every time I'd
00:07:09
meet somebody they would say stuff like
00:07:11
"Hey remember back in the day we did
00:07:12
this or that?" And I'm just like "What
00:07:14
have you been up to lately?" Cuz it
00:07:16
sounds like you've been just living the
00:07:18
same life and honestly regressing Don't
00:07:20
be that old guy saying "Back in my day I
00:07:22
used to bench 225 Where you at today?"
00:07:25
Number 30 Time is the most expensive
00:07:27
thing you have So don't waste it
00:07:29
scrolling on social media or talking to
00:07:32
people that take your energy Focus your
00:07:34
time on things that matter most to you
00:07:36
like your family your health your goals
00:07:38
Push your life forward Number 31 Wealth
00:07:41
is built with patience and loss with
00:07:43
ignorance The people that have created
00:07:45
real wealth sustainable wealth they got
00:07:48
rich and they still got it It's because
00:07:49
they've kept being curious They wonder
00:07:51
what's going on around them They don't
00:07:53
pretend like they know it all Don't get
00:07:55
cocky as you build your empire Number 32
00:07:58
The secret to success is consistency not
00:08:01
intensity I'm not impressed with
00:08:02
somebody that can get up and go to the
00:08:04
gym for 14 days in a row I am impressed
00:08:06
with somebody can be consistent over 6
00:08:08
months Number 33 You're only as strong
00:08:11
as your weakest habit Having a bunch of
00:08:13
vices habits decisions that you're not
00:08:16
proud of like eating too much drinking
00:08:18
too much being addicted to your phone
00:08:20
It's kind of like going on a hike with a
00:08:21
backpack full of rocks You can do it
00:08:24
It's just going to be way harder and
00:08:25
it'll definitely slow you down in a big
00:08:27
way Number 34 Regret will hurt more than
00:08:30
failure ever will I call this regret
00:08:32
minimization When I fast forward to my
00:08:35
last day my last breath I don't want to
00:08:37
be laying on my deathbed with a bunch of
00:08:39
regrets So every day I minimize my
00:08:41
regrets by taking action today I don't
00:08:44
wait I don't push off I don't get in the
00:08:46
mood I don't wait for my feelings to
00:08:48
feel good I just do Number 35 Never
00:08:51
argue with someone who is committed to
00:08:53
misunderstanding you Truth is most
00:08:55
people aren't going to get you and it's
00:08:56
not your responsibility to have to
00:08:58
explain it It's okay leaving people in
00:09:01
the reality that they find themselves
00:09:02
with You want to learn to pick your
00:09:04
fights because you don't want to be in a
00:09:05
fight with somebody who doesn't want to
00:09:06
see you win Number 36 If you're always
00:09:09
the smartest person in the room you're
00:09:10
in the wrong room It feels good to be
00:09:13
the top dog the smartest person in the
00:09:14
room the person that has all the answers
00:09:16
Problem is the way to be successful is
00:09:17
you got to get comfortable being the
00:09:19
smallest person in the room Number 37
00:09:22
Don't let temporary people create
00:09:24
permanent wounds Friends come into your
00:09:26
life for either a reason a season or a
00:09:28
lifetime If you know the difference you
00:09:30
decide to let those people stay in the
00:09:32
past Number 38 Distractions destroy more
00:09:35
dreams than lack of resources ever will
00:09:38
Most people don't lack opportunity They
00:09:40
lack focus Number 39 If you've never
00:09:43
contradicted yourself you're not growing
00:09:45
fast enough What that means is that if
00:09:47
you're truly on a growth journey in your
00:09:49
reading in your investing you're going
00:09:51
to develop new points of view which
00:09:53
means that your new beliefs are
00:09:54
different than the old ones So if you
00:09:56
keep believing the same thing you used
00:09:57
to believe then are you really growing
00:09:59
fast enough The key in all this is to be
00:10:01
confident about what you believe That's
00:10:02
why I say often wrong never in doubt
00:10:04
Number 40 get obsessed with the process
00:10:07
not the outcome Fall in love with the
00:10:10
art and the betterment and the person
00:10:12
you're becoming as you pursue the goal
00:10:15
not the actual goal itself If you
00:10:16
disconnect from the need of achieving
00:10:18
something to be happy instead be happy
00:10:21
in the process of achieving that's a
00:10:23
life of fulfillment Number 41 Winners
00:10:25
make adjustments losers make excuses If
00:10:28
you want to win you're going to have to
00:10:30
tweak things You're going to have to
00:10:31
learn from whatever happened and move
00:10:33
forward The people that try and never
00:10:35
try ever again is because they make
00:10:37
excuses for themselves It's never their
00:10:38
fault and they don't learn anything
00:10:40
Don't fall into the trap of explaining
00:10:42
yourself out of winning Number 42 If you
00:10:45
want an extraordinary life stop making
00:10:47
ordinary choices The whole point of
00:10:49
being extra is that you're doing things
00:10:52
that other people wouldn't do If
00:10:54
everybody around you is saying that's a
00:10:56
good decision you might want to be
00:10:57
concerned because for you to be
00:10:59
extraordinary you need to be extra
00:11:01
Number 43 If you hang around with five
00:11:04
winners you'll be the sixth Most people
00:11:06
are the byproducts of the people they
00:11:08
spend the most time with If you do not
00:11:10
make a decision to find those other five
00:11:12
people and work your way into that
00:11:14
friend group then you're just going to
00:11:16
make it hard on yourself Number 44 The
00:11:18
best investment you'll ever make is in
00:11:20
yourself If you can invest money in
00:11:22
becoming better so you can increase the
00:11:25
money you make when you do work that's
00:11:26
the best return you'll ever get Stop
00:11:29
investing in stocks initially and start
00:11:30
investing in you Number 45 you don't get
00:11:33
paid for time you get paid for value If
00:11:36
you could take a million dollars and
00:11:38
turn it into 10 million in 30 minutes
00:11:40
you would get paid a lot of money
00:11:42
millions of dollars for that magic trick
00:11:44
It's not the amount of time you work
00:11:45
it's the value you create in that time
00:11:47
So focus on increasing your value and
00:11:50
disconnect your earning from your hour
00:11:52
Number 46 If you chase two rabbits
00:11:54
you'll catch none Sequencing equals
00:11:57
success If you want to be successful you
00:11:59
need to know what's the one thing the
00:12:01
one domino that if you go allin will
00:12:03
help you get that result You have to
00:12:05
pick one focus and go allin Number 47
00:12:08
Success is never owned It's rented Every
00:12:11
day you have to pay rent You got to pay
00:12:13
your dues You got to show up You got to
00:12:15
be consistent You got to put a smile on
00:12:17
and you got to do that over long periods
00:12:19
of time Rent is due every day You need
00:12:22
to stay consistent Number 48 Money
00:12:24
follows momentum not perfection Money
00:12:27
loves movement Money loves speed Money
00:12:30
loves decisiveness The key is you have
00:12:32
to move fast and fix things as you're
00:12:34
building Number 49 If your goals don't
00:12:36
scare you they're too small I used to
00:12:39
think I was thinking big and then I
00:12:41
moved to San Francisco and it went from
00:12:43
being a millionaire to being a
00:12:44
billionaire Because if you showed up to
00:12:46
a coffee shop talking about your
00:12:48
million-dollar ideas people would
00:12:49
literally stop talking to you and walk
00:12:51
the other way You have to dream bigger
00:12:53
but even more important execute harder
00:12:56
Number 50 Confidence isn't thinking
00:12:58
you're better than others It's knowing
00:13:00
you don't have to compare Confidence
00:13:02
isn't a lack of being humble It's the
00:13:04
certainty that you know you do the
00:13:06
things you say that you're going to do
00:13:07
because of who you are That's why you
00:13:09
have to learn to run your own race
00:13:10
