    About this Episode

    Recently, I made a poll asking: Would you rather have a million dollars today or the skills of a billionaire in five years? 

    It's a loaded question, and to me, the answer is obvious…you have to go for the skills. Let me tell you why.

    Money is never the solution to all our problems. It can depreciate, be stolen, and even become devalued over time. 

    On the other hand, having the skills, knowledge, resources, and ability to make money will never leave you wanting. 

    However, I was surprised to find that 30% of my audience chose the million dollars. Many argued that it could improve the quality of their lives, help them acquire skills and invest for retirement. 

    While these things may be true, in my experience, things that are given without having been earned tend to leave us easily.

    Think about the lottery. Reports suggest that 70% of people who win the lottery will go bankrupt within only a few short years. That's a massive majority of people. 

    My question is…what makes you think you are the exception? 

    If we don't yet have the skills or the ability to make a million dollars, chances are….we won't know how to use it properly if it's just handed to us.

    Now, I'm not saying that everyone who chooses the million dollars will lose it. There's a chance that some of my listeners are the 30% who can make it work. 

    But the point is, you have to be honest with yourself and know where you stand. 

    Ultimately, my message is clear: choose the skills, and you'll never want for money in your life.

    Speaking on Stage with Tom Bilyeu | Ep. 434

    Ready for a backstage pass to my recent keynote journey?

    3 months of intense preparation, over 80 reps, and a deep dive into the pursuit of excellence. 

    The pressure? Unbelievable. 

    The result? A 40-minute speech delivered before 1000 people. 

    But here's the twist: the real challenge wasn't just nailing the talk...it was embracing the fear, the anxiety, and pushing my comfort zone. 

    From ad-lib moments to unexpected timer flips, I'm sharing the highs, the lows, and the powerful lessons learned. 

    And guess what? The journey continues with another speech in Idaho.

    Last week, I shared insights at Raise Fest about how storytelling can supercharge your business, especially if you're into capital raising. 

    But here's the catch...many fear that sharing personal struggles might come off as attention-seeking or sympathy-seeking. 

    I'm breaking down the art of storytelling, revealing when and how to share your deepest moments without overwhelming your audience. 

    Tune in and master the art of crafting stories that connect, resonate, and leave a lasting impact.

    My Thoughts on Plagiarism | Ep. 429

    My Thoughts on Plagiarism | Ep. 429

    All right, let's tackle a common fear: content plagiarism. 

    In the past week, two of my pieces were copied by large accounts on Twitter and LinkedIn. 

    Here's the deal...it doesn't matter. 

    Anyone resorting to stealing won't last in this game.

    The real damage is to their self-esteem. Self-esteem is your reputation with yourself. 

    Your uniqueness is the real value, not just the content. So, when plagiarism happens, keep doing your thing. 

    It's a race against yourself, and if you focus on becoming your best self, you can't lose.

    Boredom is a Productivity Superpower | Ep. 428

    Boredom is a Productivity Superpower | Ep. 428

    Alright, let's talk about a killer productivity hack – one that might not immediately come to mind: boredom. 

    Last week, during a flight to Phoenix, I consciously chose to do nothing...no podcasts, no books, just staring out the window for three hours. 

    It's a challenge but the result was phenomenal. 

    I got off that plane recharged and ready to work, pumping out content effortlessly. 

    Boredom, surprisingly, is a productivity super-hack. 

    We rarely experience it nowadays with screens always at arm's reach. 

    So, embrace the uncomfortable and see what it does for you.

    Don't Sell Your Entrepreneurial Soul for Any Price | Ep. 426

    Don't Sell Your Entrepreneurial Soul for Any Price | Ep. 426

    Let's talk integrity in entrepreneurship. 

    Marketers often push boundaries, but there's a fine line between exaggeration and lying. 

    Compromising integrity for short-term gains can cost more than you think. 

    Trust is currency, and playing fast and loose can tarnish your reputation.

    Remember, if you compromise on the small stuff, what's stopping you elsewhere? Stay true to yourself. 

    In the entrepreneurial journey, you'll be tested. 

    Choose honor over shortcuts.
