Are you a jack of all trades?
Jack of all trades, master of one.
I still remember when I was struggling financially
and I was jumping from one thing to another,
going from one idea to another,
going from one business to another
looking for that perfect business,
looking for that perfect opportunity,
looking for everything external
except looking within what am I missing.
And that's how I had all those business failures
and I had 13 business failures
before I found my first success.
And the problem was
because I was chasing all these things
and I was doing a little bit of this
and doing a little bit of that
and I was dabbling.
You notice when you dabble you never achieve mastery
and you never achieve greatness.
You look at in any industry,
in any endeavor,
it could be entertainment, it could be sports.
Even think back to Michael Jordan.
When he was the greatest basketball players
of all time
and then when he went into baseball, remember that?
Comment below.
What happened, right?
Didn't do so well.
Went back to basketball and kicked ass.
Championships.
So if you think about,
people who try to do a lot of different things,
they don't do that well.
What you need to do is
you need to understand that
you only have a limited amount of time, energy and resources
and especially in the beginning you want to focus
and narrow that down.
It's like a laser beam focus.
Imagine just like the sun remember
you have that magnetic glass, right.
You have to channel all your energy through
one focal point
and when you can do that
yes that would create results.
But the problem is, when you dabble a little bit
a little bit of that.
Try a little bit of this, try a little bit of that
you never develop skillsets.
So what I did instead,
I developed my first high income skill.
Once I had that first high income skill
which is copywriting,
once I had copywriting
then instead of trying to do, learn all these skills
'cause sometimes I get questions from you
that oh, sea here Dan should I do this?
Should I do that?
Should I develop this skill?
You're trying to do too much,
especially if you're a young age.
Instead, focus on one thing.
Get damn fucking good at it.
Once you get good at it,
and how do you know you're good at it?
The marketplace is telling you you're good at it.
They're paying you good money,
they're rewarding you, they're compensating you.
The marketplace is saying, hey, you deserve
this kind of compensation, financial rewards.
Once you're getting paid, well paid doing this one thing
then you can stack on your success.
Instead of thinking like this,
your energy instead of going like this
all over direction, right,
it's focus and then once you have the first thing
then you stack on the next thing.
Then my second skill is consulting.
That's my second income skill.
And then I build on that, high ticket closing
and then deal making and public speaking
and investing and so forth.
But it's one on top of another.
Now I didn't try to develop all these skills overnight.
It's just one thing at a time
knowing that any good skill I could tell you this
any good skill it takes years to develop,
not weeks, not days and not months.
So you have to ask yourself,
how much time am I devoting to this one thing
and be world class at it, world class at it.
My entire life I'm only good at handful of things,
handful of things.
Because I was so focused.
I'm very very good at closing.
I'm world class at closing.
I'm world class in building businesses.
I think I'm pretty damn good at investing.
That's about it.
Other things in my life I'm a fucking idiot,
like I suck.
I can't, I don't even know,
I don't know how to cook.
I don't know even know how to change a light bulb.
No joke, I actually do not physically know how
to change a light bulb.
I don't know what light bulb goes where
because my whole life is about focusing on
a handful of things,
the major things that makes a different.
Most people they spend their whole life
majoring in minor things.
You make the main thing the main thing.
You major the major things in your life
that actually makes a difference
and remember, wealth is committing to one idea over time.
So stop being a jack of all trades
and be a master at the one thing, the one skill,
the one thing that would get you everything else
you want in life.
Until next time comment below.
Ask me any questions you might have.
On the way somewhere I might answer that in my Bentley.
I'll see you next time.
