15 Steps To Be SELF MADE

look okay nobody is completely self-made almost every successful individual had help on their Journey but there's a noticeable difference between people who start from scratch versus those who've had some doors pre-opened for them we've learned the Hardway what it's like to go through the entire process so here are the 15 Steps to be self-made welcome to alux the place where future billionaires come to get inspired step one find successful people that are living the life you want this is the notion of finding your goal when you're starting out you simply don't know just how much

you don't know so the easiest way to get started is by identifying a Shining Light in the distance this is your North Star it's the life you want to end up living or at least guide you until you figure it out for yourself if you want to achieve your goal you must first Define what that goal is precisely in our experience the easiest way to do that is to find people who are living the lifestyle that you desire for yourself once you do you'll have your starting position and a Direction step two study these self-made

successful people this is the notion of learning the rules of the game these people got to where they are by following a set of steps by doing some things differently than others your job is to identify as many of the things that they do which led to them being in this position if you want to be rich you first have to study the rich because you look up to them this process will be enjoyable to you while for others it might look like a lot of work step three break down what their life is and

what they do this is the notion of learning how to apply the rules now some people call them rules others call them principles values or whatever you find fitting enough these are fundamental building blocks on which these people have built their life These are crucial differentiators between them and everyone else look at how they act how they behave what they do how they think how they look at life how they set their goals and what their habits are anything that can be translated back to you successful people have a recipe for their success so learn

it step four emulate successful people to the best of your ability this is the notion of app applying the rules or to put it simply do the things these people do yourself at your own level apply their recipe do these people read books well then you have to read books do they wake up early then you wake up early do they work 80 hours a week toward their next goal then you work 80 hours how many hours do they practice their craft every single day now do the same the goal is to get your mind

and body used to the motions you're not going to tackle the same kind of problems as them but tackle the problems you have in front of yourself get the website up build the content calendar write a page per day take 30 photos every day edit for at least 1 hour this is where people give up right everyone knows that exercise and quality food will help you to lose fat but it's the motion of putting it into practice the same way that people who have succeeded are that's keeping you back this is why people say success

is a mental challenge it might be hard physically to maybe wake up early every day but your mind gives up before your body does never forget that step five you build a milestone system for yourself this is the notion of not chasing the Horizon because no matter how quickly you sprint or how long you run you'll never reach the Horizon no matter what flat earthers believe because the Horizon is a direction not a Destin even if you do get to it you won't know you achieved it because it's as far away from you as it

was when you took your first step that's why breaking it down into Milestones is such an important part of the journey it helps you to keep track of how far and how quickly you're moving people always set stupid goals they say they want to become a billionaire and stop at it a billion dollars is a goal somebody who's worth between $250 and $500 million should set for themselves goals are medium-term objectives that are just out of someone's current reach you want to be a billionaire but struggle to pay rent your first goal should be to

become a thousander make 50k more than you did last year that's a good goal the process of getting from 0 to 50,000 will teach you what you're missing and what will allow you to go from 50 to 250k your long-term objective should never be a number instead have it be a version of reality that you are fulfilled with why because nobody needs to be caught up playing a game of how big is my number because there's always going to be a higher number than the one you set and look okay we've reread every book on

what you want to do it will take time okay we wish we could tell you that there is some kind of secret method to get things done quickly and effectively but there isn't your creativity your drive your intellect these are all just multipliers of the boring things you have to do every single day changing your life takes time because it requires you to keep changing small things about yourself and sticking with them for extended periods of time money wealth success Health even happiness are very much timec consuming efforts it takes effort to solve the problem

of making money it takes effort to get into shape and effort means doing things that are outside of your comfortable self your only job right now is to shush that pesky demon in the back of your mind who keeps telling you that you've done a great job so far and you can take the day off screw that demon okay step seven you become a builder self-made people are always Builders they build their life they build businesses they build things that have value in order to be great in life you need two things first of all

to know how to build second of all to know how to sell but the first one is is a lot more valuable than the second at least in the long term think of the people you identified earlier today and just how much they've been able to build now think about the lifestyle you said you want for yourself what would it take to build it you don't start with the entire home you build a foundation build the structure build the roof put in the walls you see alexir everyone loves a beautiful and comfortable home but while

your eye is drawn to the furniture or the small details you weren't there to see the hard work that went into digging that Foundation or erecting the structural beams for stability and that is the very same in life step eight push yourself now in our experience self-made people have this second gear in their brain that they can turn on if they have to there will be times when you're not going to want to do it anymore okay it's too tiring time consuming and your heart is just not in it on that particular day that's when

you push that button that's when you go into second gear the one that makes you put in the work despite you not feeling like it progress is done in the days you wanted to skip everybody has that button in their brain you might not have found it yet yourself you can do a lot more than you think you can though okay statistically people quit at 30% of their ability 30% this applies to pain hardships hard work creativity and more you enter this second stage when you realize it's more important to you to be successful than

it is to watch another episode or play another round find that button push it on the days that you don't feel like putting in the work and that is how you make something of yourself step nine delay gratification you don't need a treat every time you do a trick okay life is a strategy game and your goal is to win that game sometimes in chess you have to sacrifice a few Pawns in order to make progress what are the small things you're willing to sacrifice to get that big win the concept of delaying gratification or

trading with the future as we like to call it is something every self-made individual has been able to successfully use I don't eat cookies now and because of it I'll have a lot of cake that I can share with everyone later building yourself isn't a linear process progress comes very slowly in the beginning but it starts to snowball once you get to a certain point this is why rich people are getting even richer the snowball Works in their favor so delay gratification until you've got your own snowball step 10 you specialize in two or three

things when people hear about specialization they tend to think it's only about one thing you master something and become really good at it this used to work in small communities where you would basically dominate your small local market like the best shoe maker got all the customers the best baker sold the most bread and so on then the internet came along and you're no longer competing with just the folks around you in order to have a competitive Advantage it's no longer enough to be really good at one thing being really good at a single thing

makes you a valuable and hardto replace employee but being really good at two or three things allows these skills to be leveraged one on top of the other self-made doesn't mean that every single thing you do you do yourself self-made means your skill set is enough to carry you into the future that you want you need to understand it's no longer enough to be really good at just one thing the trifecta when it comes to a winning strategy is as follows one skill that allows you to build something of value one skill that allows you

to communicate or relate to other people why it's valuable and one skill that allows you to expand yourself from a creativity perspective you need to take a well-rounded approach to wisdom Gathering alexer and that's exactly why we built the alux app it's designed to help you level up your life across all of the important pillars from Financial Health to emotional and physical wellness your intellect and your relationships there's daily coaching sessions across all of these key areas of life plus we hire industry experts to act as your own personal Mentor we pay them their insane

us to you I'll be right there with you every step of the way I can't wait to see you on the inside Step 11 you reinvest strategically now this step Builds on top of everything that you've learned so far many people make mistakes at this point so we recommend you pay attention Okay so to simplify it we'll use a metaphor let's say you live somewhere extremely cold and you need wood to keep you and your family warm the smart man goes out and cuts two trees one to keep the current fire going and one to

save up on the side the side tree is just as important as the main one the mistake people make is that they ignore one of the two stop putting wood on your main fire and soon you'll die of hypothermia but not having enough reserves or a safety net and when not if but when the hard times hit you'll at least have a Fighting Chance self-made people focus their efforts on the main thing they're building but some of the outcomes need to be separated into a safety net outside of the main thing step 12 you hire

people to do the things that you find boring or hard so by now you've specialized and are incredibly good at some things these are big moves that push you further in life but the road isn't as even as you'd expect there are timec consuming tasks that you probably dread when you're doing what you're good at time is irrelevant you're almost having fun doing it what for others looks like hard work for you is basically play that's where you thrive so do that then find people who enjoy or are at least good at doing these things

that you shouldn't be doing yourself successful self-made people always build strong teams around them Step 13 you constantly dream bigger and are on to the next level now we're going to tell you a secret from the future the hunger never goes away you just want better food the moment you hit a milestone new doors open up ahead of you filling you with excitement what else can I do holy if I do this then I might just be able to do that you fall in love with the process with the journey very much like an addict

you're no longer competing for survival no you're competing to see just how far you can take it you're like Michael Jordan trying to constantly top himself chained people don't know what lies above the clouds but you got a glimpse of yourself and there's no way you're stopping halfway step 14 you don't give up you adapt or adjust now one of the biggest traits of self-made individuals is their determination to never quit it's extremely rare to get it right on your first try most if not all of the highly successful companies started out as something else

Facebook was originally a private social network for Harvard students Amazon was just a bookstore now you're probably not going to build the next trillion doll business or anything but the idea Remains the Same you face life with everything she plans to throw at you sometimes you win sometimes you learn you get back up you prove them wrong not for them but for yourself this is your journey do not let anyone else write your story and step 15 you carry the torch everything in life is cyclical in nature it's how life and existence have been designed

to be the first step in this video was about finding the people who inspire you who are doing things worth looking up to every self-made individual that Drew inspiration from others has the responsibility of carrying that torch for the Next Generation become the inspiration you needed when you were starting out and what a great moment to come back to the present okay to you listening or watching this right now what is your purpose alexer stealing a page out of Lucifer's book what is it that you truly desire from this life put it down in words

think that you're happy but for you to actually be happy don't worry about what other people think of you or where they're going they're not going in the same direction so you won't meet them when you get to your destination do you want other people to know you're doing well look they're going to notice without you having to lift a finger okay the moment you begin playing status games your fire is slowly going out you're too busy telling the world how warm you are when in reality there are not many logs on that fire status
