What if someone could just SHOW you everything they did to make $100,000 or a million?
Or ten million?
I’ve got tons and tons of experience, I’ve done it a ton of times.
I’ve got bank records and stripe screenshots.
I could walk you through, step by step, how to do what I’ve done.
Even if you’re starting from scratch.
And I get this question all the time.
All along the lines of “can you just show me how to do everything and I’ll follow along”.
It seems pretty simple and obvious.
If I just gave a set of instructions, then you could follow along and see the results I’ve got.
I think people also use it as a method of “proving” if I’m really capable of doing what I’ve done.
Except it doesn’t work like that.
When people ask “can you just tell me, step by step what you’ve done, so I can follow along”, what they’re really saying is:
If I do what someone else has done, I’ll get what they’ve got.
This is called the “life lie”.
- I can’t have X because I don’t have Y.
- I can’t have money because I haven’t got a secret solution (that only Mike has).
- I can’t lose weight because I don’t like dieting.
- If only I could be more like Mike, then I’d have more of the things I want.
And I can prove that people DON’T want a step by step set of instructions.
Because whenever I do release something that is as “paint by numbers” as it gets, I am flooded with reasons why it won’t work for them.
- Yes but I’m not selling to Americans or Europeans
- Yes but English isn’t my first language
- Yes but I’m not good on camera
- Yes but I’m not good at selling
I want you to try something.
The next time someone tells YOU “I can’t do X because Y” I want you to replace “can’t” with “don’t want to”.
So when your client says “I can’t create social content because I’m not good on camera” turn that into “I don’t want to create social content.”
The reason then becomes the excuse.
And people will ALWAYS come up with excuses for something they don’t want to do.
You see, I’ve got years – over a DECADE – of documenting my journeys, showing my process and systems.
I’ve shown how I written and sold books, courses, software, started a YouTube channel, made money with YouTube, started an agency, sold services, client work, consulting, coaching and products.
The examples aren’t what you need.
What you need, is to just DO the next piece.
Get it wrong.
Try again.
Get it a little bit more right.
And over and over.
Don’t fall for the life lie.
You have everything you need to succeed.
