Hey, Welcome back to the Six Figure Mastermind. Today we're going to talk
about how to earn six figures without college degree. I'm going to walk you
through how I did it. So stay tuned. So, much to be said about having a college
degree. And I'm not going to... I just want you to know right out the bat, that I'm not
going to poopoo on education or higher education at all. In fact, if I'm going to
have a doctor operate on my leg and I did, he put a metal plate and 8
screws in there. You better believe I want him to have a college degree
preferably in medicine, right? There are certain careers that you want to get a
college degree in. I'm just going to put that out there. Like lawyers and doctors
just to name a couple. But that being said, I got to tell you I came from a
family that valued education probably second to family loyalty alone, okay? It
was like family loyalty and college education. In fact, I hesitate to say this
but I'm going to say it anyway. They used to measure and maybe they still do. They
used to measure education based on a zero to Eldridge level, okay? And say,
"Where is this person on the spectrum of intelligence?" And they would and they
would say, "From zero to Eldridge they're about a nine." Okay? So, I'm just saying
that to tell you that education was so highly valued in my family. Every one of
my siblings has a college degree. And I've got ten kids in my family, okay? I'm
the only one who does not have a degree, okay?
And get this, I went for 10 years to university. I went to school for 10
years after high school. And I left the university without a degree. I got to
tell you something. And when I was going to school, I was trying to do it all.
I had 5... Well, I had four kids, one on the way. I was pregnant going to
university throughout my entire childbearing experience which meant I
was trying to you know, take care of my body, I was trying to take care of a
family at home, my husband at the time was working. I was working and I'm going
to school. I mean, this is so familiar for all of you. Until one day, my professor
walks up to me and he says, "Marianne, you have a business. You're already doing
what all of these kids are here learning how to do. Why are you here? You should
probably go." And I thought about that and then I thought about sitting in my
Italian class because it was one of my required general classes and I'm 3
months pregnant trying to learn passato prossimo. I sat up... I thought about
the class about framing where I had to learn how to create picture frames. I
remembered my class that I failed the first time and nearly failed the second
time. I thought about all of these things that were eating at my time. And as I
considered time to be my most valuable resource... Because think about this, time
is the one thing you can buy more of and you can't get back. You and I have 24
hours in a day. No one has any more, no one has any less. From the richest man on
the hill to the lowest man in the gutter. We all have 24 hours in a day. I was
spending eight hours of it at university while trying to run a business, while
trying to be a parent, while trying to have a social life. I mean, heaven forbid,
right? While trying to do all of these things and I thought, "I guess I don't
need a degree to do what I want to do." Think about how degrees and universities
came about in the first place, okay? Just think about it for a minute. Rewind the
clock to when the United States was new. To win... We didn't have universities and
when the concept and an idea of Yale and Harvard and these amazing Ivy League
schools started to come about. Why did they come about? Because some brilliant
people got together and they said, "You know what? We know stuff and we feel like
other people should know stuff too. And in fact, other people are asking us about
stuff. So, maybe we should teach them some stuff and maybe we should even put an
institution together with buildings in classrooms and you and I can write
textbooks and we can teach stuff through books. And then people can come learn
stuff from us. And then wait a second, they can even they can pay us to learn
stuff." And then that started this whole idea of getting a college degree, right?
These universities started to pop up everywhere. You've got the early
universities on the East Coast that people would send their children to. And
then those people would create universities out in the Midwest. And then
finally over on the west coast. When we have universities all across the country.
And now it's got forward to the 21st century. But we have we have universities
online now, you guys. Like you don't even have to go to school to go to school. You
can go to school on your computer and get a degree that way if you want to. So,
how do you earn Six figures without doing all of that? Think about what I
said about those people that were first building universities. Went that first
thought that said, "Hey, guess what we can... We can even we can even charge people to
teach them what we know." Imagine if you had been there on the cusp of higher
learning. I can tell you something you are right now and maybe you don't even
know it. Higher learning is higher learning whether it happens in a
university, a college, a state university or in your living room. It's higher
learning. If you know something that someone else doesn't know, then you can
step into a coaching space with them and teach them what you know. People do it
all the time. It's called mentorship, okay? And remember what I said, there are
certain things that you need to go to university for but even in that realm,
you better believe that the expert clinician, the experts surgeon is having
students come in and do surgeries watch surgeries and apprentice surgeries with
him. When you become a mentor, that's who you become. You become the expert surgeon.
But before you do, before you can be good at something, you have to be willing to
stink at it first. And when you're stinking at it, that's when you get a
mentor. Then mentor can teach you how to become excellent at it. When you become
excellent at it, then guess what? You step out of the student realm into the mentor
realm. And you can start building your own coaching business. You can start
teaching people the stuff that you know. You can start writing books about the
stuff that you know. And then you can start teaching the stuff that you know
to people that want to know the stuff that you know. And you can ask for money
and compensation in return for that. That's how many people across the
country are building 6, 7 and even 8 figure businesses without having a
college degree. You don't have to have a college degree to be credible. You just
have to have results. As soon as you start gathering results, that's when you
can start charging people to learn what you know. So, let me break it down for you.
Six figures, initial six figures is $100,000. How much
do you need to make every month in order to make $100,000 a year?
So, just for simple math sake. I've done it for you. it's
$8,400 every single month. So, we're going to divide that up into 4.3
weeks because every month has approximately 4.3 weeks. So,
this is what you asked yourself. How much do I need to make every single week to
make $8,400 a month to make $100,000 in a
year. Well if you break 8,400 down by 4.3, that
means roughly, you need to make $2,000 a week. Now you can
break that up into as many work days as you decide. Maybe you work a five-day
workweek. Maybe a six or a seven day workweek. You can divide that two
thousand into whatever number you need to, to create that two thousand every
week. The next step is to get your product out the door. Whether it's an
affiliate product. Maybe you are a huge fan of someone else's work and you want
to say, "Oh my gosh, I believe in your products so much I'm going to take your
product. I'm going to sell it to people and I'm going to get a commission from that and
create my own income that way." Or maybe you even have your own product that you
put together that you can get out the door and that you create one hundred
percent of the profits from. All you need to do is figure out what that product is?
How much it costs? How many you need to sell to make two thousand dollars a week
at least? And boom! You've got a six-figure income. If you want to learn
what it takes to make it stick to the gear income and you know that I can help
you along the way, here's what I'm going to ask you to do. Hit up the link in the
