Impress the Only Person that Matters. Future You.
What To Do
For those at the top: You can’t compare yourself to everyone you’re better than, or you’ll get complacent.
For those NOT at the top (on the climb): You can only control what you can control - and only you can know what that is.
Activity 1:
Imagine the least successful version of you, a.k.a Loser. Now ask yourself, what does that person do or not do to guarantee that you will not win. (distracted, impatient, unconfident, not following up on things, etc.)
Now, invert these things:
Impatient - Patient
Unconfident - Confident
Late - Always on time
Doesn’t ask for referrals - Asks for referrals
How To Do It
Break Things Down to the Most Basic Form
The less skilled you are, the more broken down a command must be to follow it. This is why two people can go through the same experience and get wildly different results.
Results come down to the number of skills they have that the number of skills required to understand and execute.
When you break things down to their most basic level, EVERYONE can learn and understand. This makes it easier for skilled people and possible for less skilled people.
Learn How to Learn
Learning how to learn will make you better at teaching yourself and then your team. If you can learn it, it’s a skill. If it’s a skill, you can teach it.
Remember This
Learning Means: Same Condition. New Behavior.
Operationalize
Explain using actions or behaviors you can see with your eyes.
We know that if we do these things, we get these results.
Why To Do It
External Conditions
Wealth is made during the hard times because the largest percentage of the market transfers to the fewest left standing.
The more you do anything, the better you get at it. The more environments you do it in, the better you get in more environments.
“A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor”
Wish for storms.
Internal Conditions
Motivation come from Deprivation. Your motivation is proportional to your deprivation. If you want to feel more motivated, change who you compare yourself to.
Rich people are more deprived of money than the poor because they compare themselves to richer people than poor people do.
Compare yourself to the person you genuinely want to become.
