14 mal mehr schaffen als andere

0:00And so, if you want to beat someone, just try 10 times harder than them. And you only really need to try two or three times harder, but you probably don't realize how much harder they're trying than you are. So, try 10 times harder just to make sure you win. People reject this idea that someone can work 10 times or 100 times harder, but I define work as output. And so, for you to say that someone can't produce 10 times more than you is just factually false. There's tons of people who produce 10 times more. There's tons of people who do 100 times more than you. I'll give you the easiest example in the world. A lot of departments run on weekly cadences. They say, "Do this thing by end of week."

0:38Often times, you can ask that person, "How many hours will this really take you?" And then that person will say something like, "I don't know, three or four hours." You say, "Okay, well, why don't you just get it done by noon?" And then at noon, you say, "Okay, what's the next thing going to take?" And they'd say, "Uh probably another three or four hours." You say, "Cool, get it done by the end of the day." Now, from those two cycles, that would have normally taken two weeks or 14 days, but instead it got done in one. And so, just right there, you got something done, you got 14 times more done than the competitor who's doing things on a weekly basis. And so, this is how you drag the future to the present, is that you're not focusing on how hard you're working, you're focusing on how much you're getting done. You'd be amazed at how much better you get after you've done it 100 times. If you want to win, do it again. I want to be clear. You don't just post 100 videos in a row and see what happens. You post one, see what worked, and then try and do more of that thing. And so, the idea isn't just raw effort, it's raw effort with an improvement loop.

1:37And so, I remember one of my favorite words that I have to teach sales guys cuz it's a very repetitive task to teach someone how to sell, is great, do it again. Great, again. Great job, again. And so, it's that repetition that breeds the nuance of skill. And you want it to be so drilled into you that you no longer have to consciously think about how to do the thing because you can then do it as a natural skill so that you can move on to putting your attention to the next skill. So, it's not just about learning how to do it once. It's about learning how to do it so many times that you don't have to think about doing it at all. Especially if you're starting out, your goal should not be passive income.

2:16Mainly because you don't have enough money for the passive income to mean anything. Instead, you should learn how to make money while you're awake before trying to learn how to make it while you sleep. You crawl, then you walk, then you run. Once you have more money than you can possibly reinvest in education and acquiring more skills, then you can take the leftover and put that into your passive income pool. And so, very very tactically, this is what I walk you through. You should have an education investment budget. And so, just like you spend X dollars per month. So, let's say you we pull all of your expenses down and you're making an extra thousand dollars a month. Okay. Now, if you're not eating out, you're not buying new clothes, you're not going out with the boys, you're not spending money in stupid ways, that if that's what you're doing, then you're going to have a thousand dollars left. If you have that, then you can take that money and every month you can put it towards a bank account that you can either choose to immediately spend or save up for something that is more expensive. And I can tell you that a lot of what I learned when I when I bought programs and seminars and conferences and things like that wasn't even from the content itself, but it was connections that I was able to make at those types of events that I was then able to leverage the one skill I had which I was good at sales and then start giving that away to every person I met so that I could collect those IOUs and then learn skills for free.

3:32And so, it's like I really just needed a ticket to get in the room and then I could trade with everybody else with the skills I had to then get to learn theirs. And so, as wild as this sounds, at the end of 2025, you could be dead broke but rich in skills. And so, let's say at the end of next year, you actually have no more money but you would now have the ability to make more money. And so, just like my father had to start over from nothing after losing everything, he didn't lose everything.

3:58He still had the most valuable thing he had, which is that he was a surgeon. And so, he knew a skill, and he could make it work here like he'd make it work there. And that is something that no divorce can take from you, no government can confiscate, and it's something that's with you till the day you die. And so, that's how you get better. You keep going, you keep improving the feedback loops, you invest appropriately, and you keep going all in on you. Real quick, if you are a business owner and you are not growing as fast as you'd like, I'd like to give you a free gift. So, my team and I put together the 100 million dollar scaling road map, which is basically 200 hours of us looking over all the portfolio companies we've had and what stages of growth they went through and more importantly where they got stuck and how they got past it. And so, we broke it into these 10 stages and we made this little kind of quiz thing where if you put in your business information, it'll tell you where you're at and the most important part for you, what to do for each of functions of the business across product, marketing, sales, customer success, recruiting, IT, human resources, and finance. And so, no matter what you're struggling with, someone else has already struggled with it and solved it. And so, I'd like to give you this thing absolutely free. You can go to acquisition.com/roadmap, plug in your business information, and if you want us to actually help you deconstruct the business and you're trying to scale, we'd love to help you out. On the thank you page, you can just book a call with my team and we will look at the business, see if we can help, and if we can, we'll invite you out to Vegas and we'll do this in person live.
