Focus on yourself and focus on getting your money up until you’re actually in a position to hear you’re able to make moves. The last thing you want is to start being offered opportunities that you’re not actually mentally or financially prepared to take advantage of. You would be much better off spending all of your time stacking up paper and improving yourself, turning yourself into a high level productive member of society, and then approaching life from there, as opposed to trying to do a bunch of things you are not ready for.

Don’t take the easy way out. If anything, you want to seek out the HARDEST path possible. The obstacle is the way. The more you go through, the more challenges you overcome, the more strenuous the process to take yourself through, the better person you will actually become in the end.

Taking shortcuts isn’t going to get you where you actually want to be. It’s going to put you into a position that you actually don’t want to be in. You’ve got to ignore the urge to take the easy way out, and concentrate your focus. You have to put in the effort that it’s going to take to actually REACH your goal.

It’s all about your production at the Jed of the day. You can be the best, friendliest, nicest guy in the world, but if you don’t produce at all, then people aren’t gonna care about that. You can be the biggest asshole on the planet, the biggest jerk to people, but if you can produce the results that other people desire from you, they’re going to be willing to let it go (as long as you keep producing). The caveat being the rope is longer for a nice person and way shorter for the dickhead, but at the end of the day it does all come down to your production levels.

It’s not about dong something one time, or doing something for one period, or doing something for a quick fix. What it’s really about is creating a lifestyle that consistently produces the results that you want.

If you’re waiting for something to happen, if you’re anticipating somebody to bring you a great opportunity, you’re going to be waiting forever. You’ve got to get out and do something. You’ve got to move around and make things happen.

Be outer directed. Focus on what other people want. People will love you if you appear to be interested in them as a human being. Everyone wants validation. Everyone wants to be recognized on an individual basis. The more people you’re able to be that for, the better your life will be. Don’t spend so much focus on what you are doing, how you’re teeing, and best you’re getting, and instead focus your attention and energy on other people.

You’re going to have to compete. There’s no way around it. Life is about competition. Life IS competition. The more you try to avoid this, the more you’re going to get trampled on by the people who are really out here trying to win. They’re going to dominate you because their mind set is on dominating people like you. The reason you likely feel like you’re getting taken advantage of in life is because you’re on the wrong side of it. You’re on the losers side of the game, but don’t even realize you’re there because you are trying to convince yourself it’s not a competition. But just because you don’t acknowledge, or don’t want to acknowledge, that something is happening doesn’t mean that it’s not actually happening. It just means you’re weak and an easy victory for those who really understand the purpose. We’re all competing for the same resources. We’re all competing for the same land, the same money, all competing for the opportunity to present our genes into the next generation. Get into the competition!

Now is not the time to relax, it’s not the time for you to get your thoughts together, and it’s not the time for you to prepare. We are in the age of action. All of the information you need to have is out there; you don’t need any more information, you need activation. If you’re feeling anxiety about something, the only way to get rid of that anxiety is going to be through action. You have to take action. The only way for you to go from where you currently are to where you actually want to be is through immense, overwhelming, immediate action.

The game is to be sold, not to be told. You can’t expect to get anything for free, you can’t expect to just be allowed to do whatever you want. In order to receive, you’re going to have to give. And you’re probably going to have to give, a LOT, over a LONG period of time, before you can actually expect to get anything back. It may feel that you’re giving and giving forever without getting anything back. And sometimes that will end up being the case. It’s the risk you got to take, it’s the result you got to live with.
