the subtle art behind being in the 1%

It's to be the one to tell you this, but the only way to be in the 1% is to do what 99% won't, three things to start with. Number one, self-awareness. This might upset some of you, but most people lack this. Being able to see outside of yourself, having empathy, getting accountability, being honest with yourself. Easier said than done, but it's something you need to learn to master. Most people default to blame, aiming their environment, blaming other people, blaming anything and everything around them, but themselves. Our circumstances, they're past, they're present, you name it. And that's what you can't do. Choose to live as the victim. Self-awareness changes everything because you cannot change what you do not acknowledge. Number two, speed. The 1% move and they move quick. From idea to action to execution, they don't think they just do. Meanwhile, the 99% are overthinking, are spending their whole lives waiting to feel ready, waiting for the perfect timing. The 1% known, those things don't exist. So they just act. Number three, consistency. And yes, you've heard it before, but this is where everyone falls off. 1% understand something that most people don't. Success is built in the reps, and the time, in the work, and the constant showing up. And honestly, the most crucial part is that they fail. Not once, not twice, again and again and again, but they don't fail and stay there. They fail and fail again. And then they get up, they adjust, they learn, they change, they evolve. They just keep going over and over and over again. And then, and this is the funny part, one day, it clicks. One thing, one call, one combo, one post. It takes is one out of the million reps, but you need to do all those reps to get to that one. And from the outside looking in, it's always an overnight success. And in reality, it was years and years of consistency, finally paying off.
