I became a millionaire at 36 by working regular jobs.
I followed boring advice from big-name gurus.
Here are 9 things I would do differently to get rich faster:

Here are 9 things I would do differently to get rich faster:
1. Switch Companies, Often
I stayed with one company for 15 years.
Company loyalty keeps you underpaid and under-appreciated.
You can make thousands of dollars more over your lifetime if you job-hop.
💰 If you want more money, switch companies. Often.

2. Find the Right Partner, But Focus On Yourself Too
I chased women and spent too many years in bars. Wasted years.
I would focus instead on becoming the kind of person my ideal mate can't take their eyes and mind off.
💰 Work on yourself to attract your ideal mate.

3. Take Risks While You're Young
2004 to 2009, I did internet marketing. I met people like Russell Brunson.
I should have jumped into digital work or startup companies.
I was single with no responsibilities.
I'd be worth 10x what I am now.
💰 Take calculated risks.

4. You Don't Need to Work 24/7
I thought being first in and last out would get me ahead.
It just burned me out and made me:
• Stressed out
• Anxious
• Irritable
What a dumb ass.
I have more energy than 20-year-olds.
💰 Prioritize sleep, eating healthy, and working out.

5. Get a Mentor or Coach
I tried my hand at side hustles.
I made over $50K.
I spent it all on stupid "business" shit.
I quit on my dreams.
A mentor/coach who have guided and held me accountable.
I'm doing that now. Money well spent.

6. Take Action on What You Learn
I have read an average of 73 books over the past 12 years.
It's true, I track what I read.
It's mental masturbation.
I never took action.
Don't do that.
💰 Write down what you're learning and take action immediately.

💰 Write down what you're learning and take action immediately.
That last bit of advice is key.
I learned options from one $10 book.
I took action and made $58,000+ and counting.
How?
I took action.
Please do the same.

7. Don't Compare Yourself to Others
There's always someone doing better than you.
I got jealous of someone who had better portfolio gains.
I wanted to beat him, so I got risky. Lost a lot.
I'll save that story for another day.
💰 Focus on your plan and put blinders on.

8. Share Your Knowledge with Others
I sat in a cubicle for years, building wealth.
I rarely talked about what I was doing.
I get so much joy out of helping others.
Today, I'm learning from others daily.
💰 Form your crew, learn together and hold each other accountable.
