Most people struggle with sales. To win, turn B2C problems into B2B problems. B2C problems are:.- Interest-based (How to collect all Gengar Pokemon cards).- Technology-based (How to use ChatGPT).- Curiosity-based (How does the NYC subway work?).- Socially-based (How do I get a

The most useful class I took in college was business stats. 1 hr on YouTube could teach you all the relevant information. If someone talks about their favorite college experience, there is probably a cheaper, faster, better way to get that same experience.

When I weighed 195, I thought if I lost 20 pounds I'd be fairly lean. Now I weigh 175, and think if I lose 20 pounds I'll ACTUALLY be lean. It's crazy how much bodyfat I really had. Made me realize most men who "need to lose a few pounds" REALLY need to lose 50+.

Common sales misconception:. You have to be a people person. Really, you just have to be CURIOUS. If you find QUESTIONS that help you LEARN about someone, they'll tell you exactly what they need. Then just find a human way to meet those needs. Ideally with your thing.

College was not worth it. The costs:. • money ($8k debt, $45k of my cash spent).• time (3 years).• location lock (Los Angeles).• the label of being a “college grad from X school” (Small no-name). The benefits:.• Degree (BS, MBA).• School Name/Network (Not much in my case).

Not a finance bro or AI bro. But this is a good video. TL;DR: The S&P 500 isn't an accurate whole-market fund anymore.

Consistent experience:. - Meet cool business guy.- Have conversation (sometimes multiple hrs).- I ask excellent questions.- They realize I'm smart + driven + "have potential".- They get excited and say "I should hire you for XYZ - you're an amazing young man!". They then proceed.

Skill I'm learning:. When I feel a "focus wave" ending, RIDE IT, don't fight it. When I get tired, 95% of the time I want to just "push through," but I end up going slow and wasting time. If I do a workout, take a 20-minute walk, grab a snack, then come back, I get more done in.

Many college advocates told me “You’ll grow as a person” and “Meet so many great people”. Meh. I think a lot of that growth is the nature of experiencing the world as an 18-22 year-old. College makes that experience lower friction than it would be for most ppl. I’m a very.

Banger.

Most useful thing I've learned in sales:. Frame your goals around finding "No" instead of "Yes". I made 40 cold visits and was discouraged—70% said no, 30% said maybe. Then I did the math based on our data: to close 1 deal, I need to hear "no" 146 times. OH. Instead of trying.

Life hack for men:. Get a wallet that attaches to your phone. Phone/Wallet/Keys becomes just Phone/Keys. My $8 phone wallet attachment makes me so happy, I cannot explain lol. Then get a Tesla, and Phone/Keys just becomes:. Phone. Hah.

So Andrew Huberman consumes 800mg+ of caffeine/day?. Get me another monster I'm not doing so bad LOL.

Theory on why Disney is so busy now:. The world is flattening, and now everyone wants to go to the "best places.". Tourist traps are dying, but the biggest and best places are thriving:.- Best ski slopes are packed.- Best restaurants are busy.- Best tutors are hired. Six Flags.

College was a poor investment. There are many ways to trade:.- time.- money.- location. For:.- knowledge.- experience.- networking.- social skills. WITHOUT paying thousands for FOUR YEARS. College tries to do everything but masters none. There are better ways.

I hate working in one place—I need to switch places every 2-3 hours. "Just lock in" doesn't work for me; novelty helps me focus. If I'm at my desk for too long, I want to jump over to a coffee shop or even just a different seat in the same room. Am I nuts? Anyone else?.

Skill I'm learning: Memory discipline. On bad days, I often "forget" the good. I'm learning to remember:. "I just enjoyed 3 great days in a row. 1 down day isn't bad.". Life has highs and lows. Trying to choose thankfulness for the highs during the lows.

A realization I wish someone explained in high school:. Winners will win, normies will be normal, losers will lose. College, a mastermind, online course, or new pair of shoes doesn’t magically transform someone. They are just options to expedite your growth as a person. They.

I thought I liked structure, but that's not right. I like micro structures. I get bored and unfocused with the same FULL DAY structure. But there are blocks of the day I never change:. - Workout.- Sales.- Writing. I'm learning to keep micro-structures but mix up the order.

Crazy how “I could” stops me from doing so much.
