A few weeks ago, when I was chatting with one of my team members, he was telling me about this strange TV series...
A series that is apparently so bad at storytelling - it’s became an international success.
But what’s even more strange about this series, is the main character.
The main character is so powerful, he beats any enemy he fights with ONE single punch.
No. It’s not Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson...
It’s not Chuck Norris...
And it’s not even Bruce Lee...
It’s Saitama.
A ‘regular’ 20-something year old (who’s gone bald) - who’s practically invincible.
The Strongest Man In The World
So apparently this Saitama guy can kick anyone’s ass with one single punch.
And with one punch - I mean completely obliterate any enemy.
- Monsters 32 stories high...
- Meteors as big as a city...
- And even super-speed ninjas...
Now, if you don’t watch Anime, that’s okay. Follow along anyway because I’m about to share with you an invaluable lesson about success.
Ready?
Okay. So all the other heroes (and villains) in the show want to know how Saitama got so strong...
They theorize that:
He used some sort of “magical strength enhancer”...
That he is actually a machine that looks like a person...
Or that there is actually a God living inside his body...
But when his apprentice (Genos) decides to ask him directly:
“Saitama, tell us! What is the true secret to your power?”
He leaves everyone speechless.
“I’ll tell you the secret to my strength. But you must promise you’ll stick to this intense training regime if I do.
No matter how hard it becomes… Okay?”
Then he reveals the secret — the secret training regime:
Saitama’s Training Regime:
100 Pushups
100 Sit Ups
100 Squats
A 10KM run
Every. Single. Day.
Now, when Saitama tells EVERYONE this “secret regime”. Everyone freaks out at him. They say.
“You’re full of crap.”
“Don’t joke with us.”
“What is your real secret?”
And no one actually believes him...
Even though that’s all he really did.
And of course, in real life sure — it makes zero sense that you’ll become invincible doing just 100 pushups, 100 sit-ups, and 100 squats…
But in One Punch Man - that’s what happens when you do that.
And I think this story applies to success and business too.
So Many People Want To Know The “Secret Formula To Success”...
They want to know “the trick”.
The ultra-secret thing NO ONE knows.
Or some super complicated business strategy.
To make things worse, there are all these gurus out there selling you their crap promising that once you discover their “3 action steps”, you’ll retire young and have a lambo and stuff.
...and after you buy their 39-dollar program (which can be divided into two easy payments) your life will never be the same again…
But in my experience, the formula to success is simple. In some ways, it’s as simple as Saitama’s training regime.
And here it is. Ready?
Step 1. Find A Mentor
Why spend decades working things out for yourself when you can learn all the mistakes from someone that has already been there and done that?
Finding a mentor is like finding yourself a personal trainer.
And without a mentor, you’re at a HUGE disadvantage. And if you come up against someone else that does have a mentor - when you don’t...
Who do you think is going to win...?
So finding a mentor is the most important step.
Step 2. Develop Your High-Income Skill
When it comes to training and building muscle, without a solid foundation, you can easily get injured.
Without the proper inner muscles to keep you stabilized, you’ll easily injure yourself lifting really heavy weights.
And it’s the same in business.
Before going out there and starting a business. And before lifting all these heavy weights, the first thing you’ll want to do is work on your foundation.
...to work on getting yourself a stable income-stream.
And in today’s economy, the fastest and most profitable way to do that is by developing what I call a High-Income Skill.
A skill that companies cannot automate or outsource easily. And a skill that is in HIGH demand (because so few people know how to do one.)
This is the first step to building your wealth. And it gives you the room to grow without sacrificing comfort.
Step 3. Build Your Scalable Business (Optional)
Now, after you’ve got your core strength down - it’s up to you whether you want to start lifting the heavy weights...
Some people are happy with just a strong body (their High-Income Skill). And that’s fine - that’s why I say this step is an option...
It’s NOT for everyone.
But if you do want to go this route - I would recommend waiting until your High-Income Skill is at least at 10K a month. Which if you’re one of my mentees - shouldn’t take very long.
Then, when you start your business, you don’t have to eat from the profits of your business every month.
Instead, you can reinvest those profits back in the company.
Step 4. Grow Your Net Worth With High-Return Investments
This is what separates those at the top from everyone else. They know how to invest.
Whether you start a business, or whether you just focus on your High-Income Skill, it doesn’t really matter.
This is the final step.
And when your investments are pulling in more than you spend, you’re in the sweet spot.
For the first time ever, I’ve agreed to hold an event next month where you’ll discover how to grow your savings and invest it like the rich do.
If you want to be one of the 150 people who get to spend some quality time with me in Vegas next month.

[Paul Graham and The Lesson to Unlearn]
I started off this morning reading an essay by Y Combinator Founder Paul Graham about how students in schools are being taught the wrong things -- namely, to win at tests, to prove they are competitive.
The link to entrepreneurship? Graham believes that young founders who are just starting out think that the key to becoming a successful founder is to somehow trick people into believing in you.
He points to a series of discussions he typically has when young entrepreneurs come to office hours to talk about raising money or "being noticed".
He says they come up with hare-brained ideas like "launching on a Tuesday" because Tuesday is when you are most likely to get noticed.
Graham wonders why are these founders making things complicated, instead of just working on a great product that people will love.
"Why did founders tie themselves in knots doing the wrong things when the answer was right in front of them? Because that was what they'd been trained to do. Their education had taught them that the way to win was to hack the test. And without even telling them they were being trained to do this. The younger ones, the recent graduates, had never faced a non-artificial test. They thought this was just how the world worked: that the first thing you did, when facing any kind of challenge, was to figure out what the trick was for hacking the test. That's why the conversation would always start with how to raise money, because that read as the test. It came at the end of YC. It had numbers attached to it, and higher numbers seemed to be better. It must be the test."
This makes me think about things like "Growth hacking," which is not a real thing. It's a mnemonic device that some people in Silicon Valley came up with because they know it attracts young people who believe that marketing is something you do to "hack" the attention of people that leads to growth.
These young founders would soon learn if they were marketing employees of any corporate brand with a digital presence, that these "hacks" were already being done, as long ago as 30 years ago.
But why is the allure of the hack so compelling? Back to Graham's point, everyone who is being taught is also being conditioned. The distance between knowledge building and working on real problems that use that knowledge is huge.
Being a founder, in my opinion, is truly about finding a passion for something and then making a solution built out of rules that resonate in other people's hearts in minds. In other words, it's working with other people, communicating with them, and building a solution for them that not only fixes a problem they have, but inspires them to live a better life.
You do that with three skills, I think:
1. Communicating your own thoughts about the problem to a person experiencing a problem
2. Listening to their response with the intention to understand
3. Working hard until you get the real answer
In doing so, there is no hackable way to solve their problem. You have to continually "quest" for the solution, by building and failing, and building and failing. The failing is the key point.
According to Graham, we are taught that the solution to everything is to be perfect at getting the grade, to prove we are smart.
In fact, out in the real world, we are only really learning when we are applying a solution to a problem, seeing it fail, and then asking deeper questions about how to get it right.
For founders, the spirit of learning is in getting it right. That takes a really long time. Before you try to get noticed by investors, by the media, by anyone you need to get noticed by the customer who has a real problem, and has also failed in solving it.
The true test of entrepreneurship is whether or not can you learn in a way that teaches other people, too.

My birthday wish. On this vlog i talk about what my birthday wish for this year make me realize.
This year on my birthday, when i was about to make my wishes before blowing the candle on my bday cake. My mind just went blank. I did not have a wish in mind.
Is not that i don't have things i want. Is just that i believe anything i want in life i'm able to achieve it using my own effort and working hard to make it happen.
So there was no point for me to even wish for things. Since i know that i can go get what i want.
That's the law of actions. I so happy and glad that i have trained myself to be able to think and act that way. Looking forward to growing even stronger and wiser.
If you like what i do. Please support me by subcribing to the channel and also share the videos with your friends. I'm trying my best to grow this channel. So it will mean a lot if you can help me out (:
