Learn Any Skill Quick (How I Became Worth 6 Figures)

The difference between the rich and poor is what they know, and if you can’t learn sales, marketing, leadership, about money, business etc, you will indeed be poor.

And every opportunity you get to learn involves someone else, be it through experience, a book, videos or a mentor, there is always someone who gives you the lesson, or the knowledge that will let you learn.

So you need to be on the lookout, always. And when the moment does come up, the reason I’ve seen most people not learn is because they aren’t able to “listen”

They listen to what you say, and respond with along the lines of “right,” “ok,” etc. But they don’t actually believe it or want to use what is told to them. Some have this idea that others don’t know what they’re talking about, or that they themselves are special or whatever. And everyone who I’ve fired, has not done well in life or just is failing are those who don’t genuinely listen.

So firstly you need to get that ego out of the way, because you can learn from everyone. In the book “how to win friends and influence people” there’s this one quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson which says "Every man I meet is my superior in some way. In that, I learn of him"

And he’s right, you can. I’d say only take this to a degree however. And I know I’m super contradicting myself here when I write this. I just don’t listen to anyone who isn’t where I want to be or headed in the direction I want to be in terms of how they think and their mindset.

If you want to be a successful salesman, or businessman do NOT listen to a Socialist mixed with Communist. If you want to be an NBA player do NOT listen to a fat woman. If you want a happy family do NOT listen to a hoe, etc. You get the point don’t listen to people you don’t wanna turn out like.

Maybe you can listen to see what Not to do, which then Ralph Emerson would be right and I’m now realizing I' was kinda wrong in saying what I said 😑 

So that’s first, listen and understand.

And hopefully you have a good mentor, teacher or just person you’re learning from because you can’t learn by yourself. A big part of learning is who you’re around when you’re not directly at work, or with your mentor. If your friends are weed heads, hoes, or whatever. Whatever you learn will go out your head if your friends aren’t also trying to learn that thing or something similar to what you’re learning. And a good place to find similar types of people is online, I would recommend my discord server because we’re already kinda similar if you’re reading this.

I’ve never seen a millionaire hang out with a broke alcoholic. I’ve only seen those 2 groups separate. And it’s weird in the beginning if you’re trying to grow as a person because you become too good for your current environment but you aren’t at a high enough level to be around the business owners, or the people with money yet. So you need to go through a lonely learning season.

A lonely learning season is where you are just learning via books, online, videos etc and you don’t have any friends around. That’s what I did before getting my first job, and then I did that again before I started my business. And these periods last anywhere from 5 months to maybe a year. But don’t cut off contact from the real world otherwise you become an unsocial creep.

And slowly you start to just get around better people, they will come up to you and just start talking to you. You attract what you are. That’s why all the losers hang out with each other at lunch or wherever. It’s so weird and kinda wishy washy but energy and attraction is a real thing.

So on top of you being able to listen, you’re now able to make that a part of your self identity, instead of just going back to what your old self was.

And lastly is what do you do with this new knowledge now? Because if you just have it in the back of your head it’s useless. So you and maybe your new friends need to have a way to practice what you’ve been learning whether thats talking to girls, (which I’ve mastered) sales, driving engagement on your posts, etc.

You need to be able to do these without much risk at the beginning. Like you won’t put 6K into crypto especially when you don’t have much or any experience, you start small. Put in a small investment, test on a small number of people and document what goes right and wrong.

When I sell for my business or when I’m training someone, I’m very conscious about what I’m saying and how people react to the words, body language and tonality and based on their responses I know what to tweak or keep. Whether you’re recording it via writing, video or just audio you need to test what goes right and what doesn’t in order to make it really fit you.

What works for someone may not work exactly the same for you, and that’s ok. Because you are you and not them. And as you go you will find what sticks and works for you and you’ll start getting results.

At this point go straight back to your group and talk to them about how you did it, try and teach them, and this circles back to the beginning but for them, they will listen and they’ll give you input too and this builds kind of a hyper knowledge box. Where you all learn, you then teach, because teaching is the best way to learn, and then you give each other more to help become better.

This essentially describes the entire thing perfectly,

  • Firstly be able to listen, because without that, non of this is applicable

  • Get around the right people

  • Bounce ideas of each other

  • Practice and implement what your learning

  • And teach what got you results

This is how I was able to go from a loser who had no money, status, or ability to get those to the person I am today who does have all these.

And hopefully this helps you a bit, have a good one

And Thank you for reading :)
