Laser-Focused on Wealth-Creation

📚 Hey, good morning! Time to win.

I had a meeting today with my business mentor, Will, a Two Comma Club Award recipient who’s generated more than $20M in the last seven years.

When I told him how much my business had earned in the last month, I think he genuinely felt sorry for me.

This is what he said:

“Aw…dude…I’ve spent more than that on dinners.”

I repeat: he was not trying to be a jerk. And I didn’t take it the wrong way.

I took it as motivation to step up to a higher level of entrepreneurship.

If I had told him $25k/month, he probably would have said it was a “good start.”

Even if I had told him $10k/month he still would have seen me as a beginner, but at least we both believe in me, which is key.

I mean, if you don’t believe in yourself, who else is guaranteed to believe in you?

Most people don’t have anyone who believes in them, and that makes it tremendously difficult to make any sort of meaningful moves forward.

But if you believe in yourself, and you have an experienced guide and mentor who believes in you as well? Now you’ve really got something.

And if you stay laser-focused on wealth-creation and standing out as an expert - an authority in your field - eventually you might have the chance to believe in someone else who needs it.

As always, at the bottom of this email I’ll lay out everything I did today to move closer to my Ultimate Vision. This is to keep me accountable and to show you that I’m working as hard as I’m encouraging you to work…

Organized My Workflow for Tomorrow

I was up early for my meeting today and I am LIKING it! Being awake and ready to go before noon, I mean. I don’t know, just a whole different feel to the day.

I got a lot more done, had more energy…I really do think it has to do with getting a jump on the day and gaining momentum early on. So yeah, it’s about 2am here now and I’m going to do pretty much the same thing tomorrow.

Wake up “early” around 10AM, get some reading done when everything’s quiet, jump right into work, plow through it, smash through my workflow all day and see where it takes me!

I probably will hire that video marketing agency I met with today, but I don’t really have the cash flow right now to do it EASILY, which is the thing. I want to scale, but there are a few things I need to get dialed in before I can realistically do that.

My mentor’s right though, speed is of the essence in business, and I can’t take like a week to create a sales page or a VSL, etc. I just have to get it done, get it shipped, and start scaling my revenue. The sooner the better, because then I can reinvest all that into the business and make some really cool things happen.

BUT, for that to happen I need sleep!

So until next time…happy reading!

All the best,

Matt Karamazov
