This is the ONLY Thing You Have to Do

YOUTUBE  📚 THE READING LIFE  📚  PATREON

📚 Hey, good morning! Time to win.

I want to share my secret to having amazing workouts every single time I’m at the gym.

It’s not a supplement, or drug, or “special formula” or anything - it’s a YouTube channel.

I’ve been watching videos from Makaveli Motivation for YEARS, and I credit them with developing my mind into the fortress that it is today.

Now, during almost literally every single workout, I’ll have one of those videos playing in my ears.

It’s a bodybuilding channel, so the videos are about…well, bodybuilding.

But it’s the MINDSET that we’re after here. The muscles are the means to the end.

Bodybuilders are some of the most consistent, hardworking, mentally toughest people on the planet (not all of them, but the best ones are), and this video, “Better Than Yesterday” tells you the ONLY thing you need to do to reach your goals.

Even if you could care less about bodybuilding, I’d still highly recommend watching the video.

Again, it’s not just about building big muscles, it’s about building an iron MIND.

Enjoy!

Today was incredible. I learned so much, had a few things about my business come into focus, and I can’t wait to get up tomorrow to get back to work.

There’s a LOT left to do, but now I know exactly WHAT to do, and a little bit more about how my $50K/month goal in 2024 is going to materialize.

But hey, it’s 5:29AM here right now and I’m going to bed!

All the best,

Matt Karamazov
