Age at first $1 Million: • 20 Beyoncé • 23 Steve Jobs • 26 Bill Gates • 26 Michael Jordan • 26 Jay-Z • 27 Elon Musk • 29 Naval • 30 Warren Buffett • 32 Oprah • 34 Gary V • 33 Jeff Bezos 1 important lesson from each:

Fear fades when you face it. Doubt dies when you do it. Success rings when you stop waiting. You're not good enough. And neither was anyone else you look up to when they got started.

One day you just realize you’re never gonna know if it’s gonna work before you do it and the only thing left to do is to find out. And if you knew it was gonna work, it would be boring anyways.

You’re a dangerous man, Byron—but even a sniper only aims at one target before pulling the trigger. - ChatGPT

The main reason you can’t stay motivated is because you’re trying to accomplish other people’s goals rather than your own.

Sometimes you gotta let people taste the sausage and then let them know what it’s made of.

Everyone's tired. No one's playing at 100%. Everyone has injuries and bruises and tradeoffs they would've played differently if they had known better. Everyone has all that in common. The only thing that separates winners from losers is choosing to win anyways.

The goal of everyday is to leave nothing in the tank. No love in the tank. No energy in the tank. No work in the tank. To go to sleep empty, with every ounce of potential squeezed out. Then wake up and do it again tomorrow.

A lesson I wish I had learned earlier: When true star talent comes, hire them even if the timing isn’t right or your not sure the role is perfectly fitted. They’re like shooting stars. They pass you in the blink of an eye. So you gotta open your eyes or you’ll miss it.

The worst thing a college coach ever told me was “if I put you on the field, my wife and unborn children will go hungry” 😂😂😂

Jeff Bezos on how to deal with stress.

Do so much volume it would be unreasonable for you to fail. Study each success and see what sets it apart from all the failures. Repeat the winning parts even more times. Don't change your mind before you let compounding - compound.

You can beat 99% of people if you can master the shame of rejection, the boredom of repetition, and pain of feedback.

Friendly reminder that feeling lost, anxious, and uncertain are good signs. It means you’re pushing past what you know. They’re called “growing pains” for a reason.

Copywriting pro tip: If you can articulate someone's pain better than they can, they will believe you have the ability to solve it. Focus on their pain, not your pitch.

I look into your cup to see if you had some , you looked into my cup to see if I had more than you. We are not the same.

When I want to hurt someone who hurt me, I remind myself that tomorrow they’ll wake up and still be themselves. And that there’s no pain I can inflict upon them that’s worse than them being themselves. And that helps me get over it.
