Road to become a millionaire.

[MAdriven]

Here's the plan I crafted to escape the matrix.

1. Easy freelance jobs for stable income.
2. Affiliate tricks used on social media to get bigger income.
3. Building personal brand to make it all last.
4. Making my own products that only I and only I own.

Wanna be a businessman? Work smart, not hard.
Every scenario can be hacked. Growth hacking is a real thing.

Build email lists and sell to those people. Have your own audience outside social media.
With call-center experience, get businessmen on the phone ASAP and sell your stuff.

Focus on essentials and basics in terms of learning new stuff. Don't forget to re-use whatever can be re-used. And so on.

Try to get less distracted with your overthinking of who you are, what you should be and so on.
If you can't stop overthinking, weed won't help. The worst drug for this handicap. Alcohol will wreck your life if you are drinking to cure overthinking.
There is a way out which is called therapy. Thinking is a good servant, but a bad master.

If you're still thinking about your friends, drug habits and alcohol - cut if off altogether.
Don't let other people take more than 2 or 3 days of your time in a month.
If you can't let it go, pay someone to help you let it go aka psychological therapy.
IME good habits won't replace bad habits. People, serious promises and awareness of consequences are more influential IME.

Meditation is supposed to make you rested and a little bit more focused.
You can meditate for 2 hours a day which is easy, but if you do too much, there are chances of getting hooked.
Many people dive deeper and start doing some drugs like LSD and come into a conclusion money makes no sense and is a trap.
Certainly it wouldn't help you make money. Also, be aware of idiots aka fake gurus in this sphere.
I'm saying this cause meditation oftentimes goes hand in hand with stuff like newage and nonsense beliefs (ie. law of attraction).

You want to be a millionaire. So focus on getting as much money as you can on whatever you're doing. Everything else is just life.
Dirty tricks are allowed as long as you don't hurt anyone in the process.

Btw, crypto seems to be more hazardous activity than investing in affiliate marketing websites (which are easy to make) for me, so...
Chances are one will get higher ROI on SEO than crypto, but I can be biased.

Good luck.

Thank you for your strong words, even though it has only been 8 days, I no longer have distractions, I'm not tempted to check my phone, to smoke cig or weed, I'm not even spending an hour daily on social media, all my energy is focused on developing myself, but the first thing I wanted to control before starting learning about money, was my mind that I am still working on everyday, it's crazy how many things we're capable of doing but just choosing the right thing to do, my life has already changed, I feel like I've been doing this forever, maybe because I no longer waste my time, I wanna do affiliate marketing through sales funnels and lead generation that will further be promoted with ads and email marketing, I'm giving myself a bit more time to learn, and when I will be successful with that, that's the moment I want to start investing, I'm also waiting on a new job opportunity that might change everything, because that job is actually doing what I wanna do with affiliate marketing, so I get to be paid more money and to learn my high income skill in the same time, which will be the best case scenario ever, I am confident I will take that post, but for now I am still waiting the resolution

@MAdriven Congrats, that's a long time under cold water!

I've started doing cold showers every morning as well a few weeks ago, I'm only staying 90 seconds in there tho lol.

Update week #3

Hello guys, a new update for this week, I am still doing all the tasks I started doing, I actually started to adjust some of them, I am now waking up without allowing me to check my phone, and the first thing I do after doing my routine is I eat, then I read about 30 pages and then I meditate for about 20 minutes, and then I do some stretching, it takes about 2 hours for me to get everything done , before I'm allowing myself to touch my phone or my laptop, it really makes the difference, my dopamine levels are better than ever, and the thing is that I don't feel the need to use my phone, I also stopped taking 2 cold showers a day, I'm no longer taking one at night, the benefits of the cold shower are reduced if done too often, also I found out that a cold shower right before you go to bed is not really the best thing you should do, as it keeps you awake instead of helping you getting sleep, and I had some serious sleep issues, I am still researching on crypto, entered some groups, took a course, still researching about affiliate marketing as well, I am also waiting a response for a new job opportunity that might change the whole game, I feel as motivated as I felt when I started, I get more and more self confidence by being able to complete my daily tasks, I am the happiest I have been in years, It's crazy how much my life has changed in the past 3 weeks, if there is something I can tell you guys is just keep pushing on your dreams, this is what I am doing everyday, and I am happy doing it, my mind will be programmed to learn how to make money and if that's what it hears and knows, that's what it will end up doing, it's just a matter of time until everything will be the way I want it to be, and I am the most patient mother f$cker out there!!!

Try to always stick to your sleep schedule, circadian rhythm isn't a joke.

Shouldn't you be documenting this on a youtube channel or tiktok channel? You'd probably get a lot more support and followers too! You have good energy right now. Hope you can keep it up and reach all your goals and makes your dreams come true!

(on a sidebar)
Then I just remembered, I bet you 100% if MAdriven was a hot sexy young girl and started documenting her "I'm gonna change my life!" vlogs wearing cute skimpy outfits that show off her ass and chest but pretending like she doesn't realize she's showing it off, he'll be a huge success! But I think if you were to start a journey vlog just as a guy, very few ppl will watch and be interested.

 

[cpa37710t]

experienced "succesful" affiliate here, discipline counts but it aint it all, i've known some very rich guys who made their way into riches in the middle of partying.

my advice is work hard but play harder, weed, tobacco, alcohol, drugs in general WONT do any harm if done without exceeding yourself... waking up early, cold showers especially are NOT a MUST and wont dictate your success, have fun in the process, dont think of absolutes, if you feel like smokin weed then do it, changes are cool yes, but the moment you start restricting stuff then you wont have a smooth transition into what you want happening at life. Fitness is indeed important, your self image and what you believe about yourself (realistically) will push you further, stay away from pseudo science like the "nofap" cult, or the hustle culture and all it's sub-branches (how to be alpha... now sigma lmao).
dont take things too serious , what you want happening will happen, just keep on pushing, and working on whatever you do, surround yourself with legitimate friends and don't hesitate on weeding out the people who slow you down, if you want to support your family that's fine too.. but first and foremost you're who matters the most.

 

[Regular_Soul]

This poll has hit me. I swear, the financial situation and an unstable family situation perishes all the will in me to even live throughout the day.
smoke everyday to relieve an amount of stress that will help me pass through even the simplest daily problems. I used to have great dreams and hustles as well. Unfortunately after I lost my father in 2020, none of my dreams no longer excite me. Since then I have simply been living, waiting till my time in this world ends.
but reading this poll has made me re question that everything we want in this life is already difficult. Why am I crying everyday init.
so long word short. Thank you. I don’t know if you would accept but I would like to keep in touch with you to mutually motivate, research together etc, I would like to follow this poll from even closer))
Even if not. It was simply a blessing reading this poll

 

[pocketttt]

good luck on your journey

 

[DR_Zoidberg]

Glad to see someone so determined to be the best they can be! Hope to soon see your successful IM Journey posted!

 

[420lounge]

Keep on moving. Good luck

Belief is what everything sprouts from.
Good luck OP.

Update week #4
Hello guys, I was supposed to post this yesterday but my day was so full and unexpected that I couldn't do it, I am officially unemployed and I feel so good that I finally escaped from that toxic job, I also got a message in regards to the new job I have applied, to make you guys understand why I really think that job is completely gonna change everything I would probably have to write 4 pages ), long story short, the role I've applied for is assistant of a CEO that has a marketing business in US, some of you guys might not get how impressive this is for me, I am living in Europe, in a country were the average salary is about $500 a month, I just finished High School, some people will not even look at me, but it's about finding the right person that's able to see your true potential, some degrees don't reflect your intelligence, I don't want to be an employee for the rest of my life, but until I achieve that, I want to at least enjoy what I am doing, he texted me a few days ago, had 2 interviews, he liked me and I liked him, and then he said in case he wants to move forward with it he will get in touch with me, next day, which was yesterday, he asked me if I wanted to work, and I agreed, he tested my skills, half of time unpaid, half of it paid, I ended up working more than I thought and after I finished I was exhausted, I am not officially employed but he asked me to join him today as well, so I am confident that everything will be ok ) I'm still doing my tasks you guys, still pushing hard, I'm trying not to celebrate anything, I haven't yet achieved my goals, I can't celebrate yet, I have a lot of work to do, the main reason why I wanted to get this job is because I want him to share his knowledge with me, I wasn't thinking about the money, even though my financial situation might also change into better, but that's not my goal, I wanna see what it takes to run a business, I want that level of work ethic, I want to be around people that are smarter than me, that have big goals, people that are driven!! I also want to mention that I've read every comment, It feels unreal that through out my journey some people get inspired, there are no words for me to describe the feeling, for people that are struggling into finding their way out, my biggest fear is to wake up at 40 years old and to ask my self how my life would've been if I never gave up to whatever I wanted to do, it's what keeps me going, I want to live a life I'm proud of, the most important thing is for you guys to be proud of yourselves, just think about all the great things you've done in your life and use that as fuel, no one will be there to motivate you all the time, you have to self motivate yourself, even thought I'm happier than ever, I still have days when I fell depressed, but the key is to find the strength to go through that phase until you get better, next thing that you will say is, man I feel so freaking proud of myself that I overcame that, I'm proud I didn't give up when my mind wanted nothing but to quit, and then remind yourselves about that point in life when your mind wanted to quit and you didn't, and that's how you get self confidence, and if you do that enough times, there will be nothing to stop you, I hope this helped a few of you. Have a blessed day!!

Thanks for your guide. It's really helpful for me. I am really touched by the quote you said which is "Thinking is a good servant, but a bad master" and I really felt that. From now on I will be more focused, and I will definitely apply it to my life.

-Education, I'm educating myself as much as possible about money, but also self development which I think is as important as learning about money.

Great! Money is a by-product of much more than cannot be bought.

 

[RichManLeonidas]

Just be careful you dont burn yourself out. Good thing you got rid of smoking.
Get proper sleep, nutrition and rest(siesta) every day. Work out 5-6 days a week. Read lots of books. Unplug from mainstream media. Remember to have fun and relax and dont stress.
Do everything in moderation

 

[StellarHere]

Kudos to your level of awareness and drive.

Update week #5

I got the job guys!! Monday was technically my first day, so I can tell you about the job, it's confusing and complicated, but I knew what I got myself into when I applied for it, it's a real freaking challenge. I tend to learn very fast, so after one week in, I started to understand how some of things work, I'm getting more and more familiar with what we are doing, so I can understand really how something works it has to make sense for me, I am just asking a ton of questions until I get what I need, I feel like my real journey has just started now, It's crazy how many things I am learning everyday, I can't even explain it into words.. but once I get enough experience I am planning to start affiliate marketing, because I am just gonna have to apply what I learn from here, that's how powerful it is. Guys I have a lot of freaking things I want to do, my brain works in a way that I can visualize whatever I wanna do, I have the plan inside my head step by step but it's just hard to break it down for other's to understand, the CEO is a cool guy, he shares his knowledge with me, he is always answering my questions and explains why we're doing something in a specific way, I could sit and talk with him 20 hours about everything he does and how it works, but he is super buzzy because he works on a lot of stuff, however, I'm planning on working on the weekends as well, because the rest of the team is not gonna be around, so he's gonna teach me a lot of things because I am the only one he will be focusing on, and I'm also earning some extra cash so it's a win for me. It's harder than ever, I have little to almost no time available, but this is what it takes to get to where I want as fast as possible, when I go to sleep I'm exhausted, I'm gonna have to check myself because I feel tired even after 8 hours of sleep a day, I might have sleep apnea but it has to be confirmed by a professional, I'm just not getting good sleep, I find it easy to fall asleep but I am aware of every movement I do during the night, I'm trying to get sunlight everyday so that my circadian rhythm gets fixed, I am lowering all lights at night and I'm also using blue light protection glasses, but I still wake up tired, and the thing is that I thought what happens to me is normal, I can't even remember when was the last time I woke up energized, I thought that this is how everyone feels during the day, if there is someone that had the same sleep problems please share your thoughts. Anyway... I'm looking forward to share more about my progress next week, I wish you guys a wonderful Saturday!!

 

[MAdriven]

Update week #5
Hello guys, I would like to start by letting you know I'll post updates monthly instead of weekly from now on, anyway.
I love the new job, I talk about a lot of stuff with the CEO, I am exposed to a lot of crazy things and I get to be around a lot of people that have their own businesses, so I learn from a lot of people, I am able to see different life perspectives from people that are really doing the best they can to achieve their goals, I don't feel like I'm working, which is super weird because I never thought I can work for someone and enjoy it, one thing I like about him is that we both are learning new things, even thought he is very good at what he does, he is always open to learn from other's, he doesn't act like he knows everything and he always wants to hear other opinions, which in my perspective is how a leader should be, I feel like he is someone I can call a mentor,
I am super grateful that I had this mindset shift at an early age, and that I found myself, I've always wondered when am I gonna find out who I really am
and now I feel like I've got an answer, I know what to do and what I need to do, it's all about perspective, you literally decide how you are gonna let something affect you, I started thinking that things don't happen to me, they happen for me, it's not something I have to do, it's something I get to do, I am trying to learn something from everyone around me, it doesn't matter what job or what that person does, I'm trying not to judge and to look at things from an external view where my ego is not involved, it's impossible for me to describe into words how many things I've learned over the past couple of weeks, some people might feel overwhelmed but when I entered this world all I was thinking of was that I need to be around this type of people as much as possible, everyone has a story, everyone inspires me in a way or another, everyone gives me positive energy, it's just awesome!!! At the same time I am grateful for meeting him, ever since I found the job I felt like it was meant to be, I've always had a lot of ideas, but I never met someone would encourage me to say what I think because it's valuable, this is exactly what he is doing, he is preparing me for success, and at the same time I want to help him achieve his goals, I want to have as big of an impact in his life the way he has in my life. I am super pumped, super excited, life is crazy and so am I )) I wish you guys a wonderful day!!
