What can you really learn from successful people?

[Julian Brockmann]

You shouldn't be envious of others who are more successful than you are, but learn from them.

But I ask myself, what should I learn from Jeff Bezos that will help me financially or from anyone else?

As soon as people become famous, they all already have a network around them, employees, infrastructure and not to forget, millions to billions.

They then always talk some bullshit in public, like "working hard", while for example Mark Zuckerberg stole Facebook.

Nevertheless, from time to time there are people who actually make good profits. I'm sure they didn't take their cues from some windbags with billions.

But what did they orient themselves to?

One thing I learned from wealthy people is that they will not open stupid threads on forums.

I learned a lot from Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk that after reaching a certain level, you have to take a divorce. Unfortunately, I didn't learn anything from Mark Zuckerberg.

Please take me along..

How do you get close to someone who has millions of $ while you're broke ???

I will not tell you what you can learn from tem, but i can tell you how you can do this.

Imagine a really successfull, wise person. He got really tons of experience during his life. What if I tell toy that there is a thing into which this man has transferred all his accumulated experience, and it is concentrated, the most important lessons. And you can listen to it at every time, no matter is this person busy now, or is he sleeping, or maybe he even died. And what if tell you that you can take all this experience mostly free (a few $ maximum)? Do you know what's this thing called?

uff where to start, they do many things that we can apply some good and some bad depending in your point of view, but the one that from my point of view is more important is learn from mistakes and take feedback, the best story to learn about accept feedback is from the creator of Five Nights at Freddys, the originall ideas was not accepted well but through the feedback received improved and got the idea for the actual game fnf that make him really famous, maybe soeone else might say that could be something else but get feedback helps a lot.

 

[Julian Brockmann]

Books.

If books were helpful, most people who can read wouldn't be poor.

 

[Julian Brockmann]

learn from mistakes

take feedback

accept feedback

So true and so wrong at the same time.

Yes. Every single time I made the right conclusions from mistakes I got better.
Yes. Every single time I got useful feedback I got better.

No. Most mistakes I don't know how to fix or learn from.
No. Most feedback I get is useless. In many areas, all feedback I get is not only useless, but detrimental.

So the goal is to find solutions faster and be surrounded by people who actually know a topic. 9 of 10 people I meet don't know a topic or don't care enough to make an effort to share.

I used to think - also - that books were the better resource. Till I learned that most books are written for the reputation of the author, for making money and - for maybe 5 % - for helping the reader.

Especially business books are full of stories of unrelatable people.

Jeff Bezos or Mark Zuckerberg didn't teach you anything Marko. They're just interested in how to make more money.

 

[bhu1st]

I think the goal should be to learn from their failures so that you don't repeat them on your trajectory.

It kind of speeds up your take at success.

The lifespan of an individual isn't that long to learn by making all the mistakes themselves.

 

[breakcode]

Let's say you can learn new things from the successful people around you and not from famous people who know little or nothing about their past.

It's about mental health. People with too much baggage can't work very efficiently, let alone lead teams, convince investors and so on. If someone does not have baggage, he isn't overwhelmed by guilt when as a project leader fires someone for being inefficient. If you did not learn how to be a leader from your home, you can learn from books, but still you will be missing the deep feeling that you deserve to be wealthy. You won't move around like a big shot. But you can try some small projects, then fail, then learn from mistakes, then try again etc. Maybe when you 're 50 you will have a good business.

 

[cidon]

You can learn more from the failure than the success. I don't believe that successful people gives right advices.

Their failures aren't your failures. You neither know their failures nor all the details that caused them to fail.
