Aside from the 17 Mindset Shifts, there’s a few key golden takeaways I’ve compiled out of all my notes below.
– “What you focus on, expands!”
Basically the Law of Attraction, but without all the magical nonsense. It’s really not that difficult to grasp that “what you think about you bring about.” Nobody is suggesting this is the one & only thing successful people do. You won’t just sit there, close your eyes & imagine millions of dollars on your desk, open your eyes again & voila! there it is… It’s always backed by hard work. Luck favors the bold. You might be “fooled by randomness” as Nassim Nicholas Taleb suggests. Some people do win by just being lucky & we observe them thinking we can copy their success. That rarely works and you don’t hope for luck, hope or miracles. When the time comes for your opportunity (one of many, there’s not only one) the ones who are the most prepared have a significant advantage over the others. Be that person, if it doesn’t happen for whatever reason, keep going until it does work out for you. It’s not an if, but a when question (unless you’re not correcting along the way or you quit for good). If something doesn’t work, you reassess the situation. We all know the definition of insanity. It’s doing the exact same thing over and over and over again expecting a different outcome.
This text passage above. Read it again. I’m serious. I just refuted (in as little words as possible) thousands of stupid comments you’ll read on the internet, which come from unsuccessful people who can’t grasp & thus don’t see the bigger picture. It’s easy to dismiss something by acting like the armchair Frank Underwood bad guy, but that’s the internet for you. A lot of steam with nothing to back it up. The irony is frustrating. You’ll read things like “These mindset shift books won’t help you!” That is a poor person’s mindset right there for fucks sake. It’s so obvious it’s staring him right in the face, but he can’t see it. He focuses on it being difficult, instead of it being achievable.
Again, “What you focus on, expands!” I’ve not made it my job to persuade somebody like that. He’ll believe whatever he wants to believe. Maybe one day he’ll look back & realize his mistake, but some people are beyond saving. What they’ve been taught by society is just too strong. Realizing that you’ve been living a lie is a tough pill to swallow, so most never do. When you stumble upon truth, you can get angry & change or double down on denial like him. My self-imposed job is to be that voice I needed, but didn’t have growing up. Someone who could’ve helped me make sense of this huge mess I found myself in. I do believe I’m right with every ounce of my body. I might be wrong, I don’t think I am, but at the end of the day, what I believe is more likely to get me where I want to be, even if I were deluding myself, which I am not.
