RE: The secret to lasting success
p.s. it's not what you think

When it comes to creating wealth and income online, there are levels to the game.
The masses are looking to WIN money and FIND success.
They are easily lured in by things like:
Trading
Gambling
Speculating
Crypto
Raffles
Etc.
Are these things bad?
No.
But understand that they are zero sum games.
Meaning for you to WIN money, someone else must lose.
Do people win at these games?
Yes of course.
People win the lottery, hit big trades, bet and win on sports etc.
Does that mean you’re wise to go down that path when you’re starting?
Not necessarily.
Zero sum games tend to have far more losers than winners.
The model is built on the backs of the losers.
Most average people will have an easier time sand papering a lions ass in a pair of pork chop panties than becoming successful this way.
The "WIN MONEY” mindset often means people are trying to FIND success.
The problem with this is…
Finding success suggests that it’s separate from you.
That it’s OUT THERE somewhere and they need to go looking for it, get lucky somehow or find the secret to attaining it.
They don’t believe that they own it or that it’s already within.
The masses say things like:
Does this really work?
What’s the catch?
Sounds too good to be true.
How come everyone doesn’t do this?
How long does it take to make money?
They are by and large broke.
And will stay that way.
So what’s the alternative?
You need to level up your thinking and become a creator.
Real wealth online is built with skill.
It’s repeatable, predictable and attainable for anyone willing to dedicate themselves to it.
It’s not as sexy as WINNING money.
Which is why so few people pursue it.
But it’s simple.
Product -> Conversion -> Traffic
Solve a problem (positive sum game)
Attract the attention of people with that problem.
Get paid for your solution.
Notice I didn’t say this is easy.
Developing real skills takes time and effort.
I could give you a bow and arrow and even if you’ve never done it before, you would inherently know how to shoot it.
Simple.
If I asked you to hit a target though…
That requires skill
Some of this comes down to your values and what’s really important to you.
But from my experience, learning real skills can pay you millions over and over again.
They can set you free.
They allow you to make your own luck and success from within, instead of helplessly chasing it.
Choose wisely.
