READ TIME: 5 MINUTES

Renaissance man 👋 ,

The reason you’re still broke and haven’t had success is not what you think.

If you don't recognize this, you will run in circles in the upcoming months or years.

I know you want to become financially free, and I know you’re watching dropshipping videos and reading more, saying, “Oh, I also want to make money online.”

But there is something you don’t understand, and many others don’t understand.

TODAY, AT A GLANCE

• Ambition and reality gaps prompt the need for actionable change.

• Success comes from immediate, imperfect action, not waiting.

• Consistent effort over time beats waiting for perfection.

• Significant achievements require patience and persistence.

BIG AMBITIONS, NO SUCCESS

How many times have you promised yourself that you will change your life now? But when you look at your bank account, what do you feel?

I’m writing this issue today for a specific person: if you’re already living your ideal life, have financial freedom, feel like you have reached your maximum potential, and are doing well, please close today’s issue because it’s not for you.

This issue is for the person who has felt for a very long time that there is more at home and more to accomplish in life, but it still hasn’t succeeded.

I know exactly how you feel because I’ve been there, too. I was also that guy with big ambitions who wanted more in life. But I simply wasn’t there yet. I was not born into a Middle Eastern family with billions of assets, nor were you.

What I always thought, and you’re probably also thinking, is that the people you look up to have this information you don’t have. This is resulting in a constant search for information.

How many dropshipping videos have you been watching lately? How many TikToks have you been watching? How many Instagram reels have you liked?

You’re constantly hunting for that piece of information, but it’s not going to help you. You will feel that you’ve been very productive, but are you? You’re still nowhere, and your dropshipping business is still failing.

TODAY OR TOMORROW

It is useless if I tell you you’re doing well because already enough people are telling you that. You’ve probably heard your whole life that you’re doing your best and simply can not do more. But from whom have you heard that? Have you heard this from someone you look up to, someone you would like to be? Will these people tell you that you’re doing well?

As I said, It’s not that you don’t know a particular piece of information that successful people know. It’s something else.

Let's take Dubai as an example. Dubai’s construction from the ground up is insane. The president of the UAE once said, “Doing something 60% today” is better than “Doing something 80% over a few weeks”.

Most beginning entrepreneurs wait too long for the perfect circumstances to take action; this goes way too SLOW.

You have an idea today, and maybe in a month or four, you’ll take action. You want everything perfectly, and maybe you will start working on it someday. That DOESN’T work.

You have to make use of imperfection action. Even if your circumstances are not perfect, you have to start.

You’ve promised yourself so many times already, “I’m going to start now,” “I’m going to hire that first VA now,” “I’m going to do general stores now,” “I’m going to seek a mentor now,” but because you constantly delay, it all goes way too SLOW. And I will tell you in a moment what I mean by too SLOW.”

Your environment may tell you, “Oh, you’re doing good.” Because if you look at your environment, they probably aren’t doing anything. If you’re doing something now and then behind your laptop, yes, it might seem that you’re doing good for them. But whom are you comparing yourself with?

If you’re 150kg and comparing yourself to someone 300kg, yes, it looks like you’re in shape. I want you to compare yourself with your maximum potential; I want you to wake up; how does my ideal life look? I’ve been doing this for so long. I knew what I could achieve. It’s not meant to be egoistical, but we feel that kind of potential in ourselves. That’s why you’re reading this issue; not everyone does it.

GROWING A TREE

Imagine you’re biking up a mountain against the wind. It will be a tough ride for you, right? That’s exactly what will happen if you keep delaying. The wind will be against you, not with you. And that’s how you feel right now, and that’s why you don’t have the desired results.

How much easier would it be to have the wind with you? How much easier would it be to reach that maximum potential inside of you? You get that by doing what you say you will do.

You will come in a positive spiral; you will get through anything. This is what I’ve seen myself, and this is what I’ve seen with students I’ve helped. If I look at other people who started their entrepreneurial journey five years ago and now work in some kind of supermarket, those are the people who have kept waiting for the “perfect moment” to take a specific action.

I’m trying to tell you: Don’t wait for the perfect circumstances; act fast, do things better, and do things greater.

Even if you are working on something and haven’t seen the results yet, does it matter? It can hurt for a moment if you work on something and spend much of your valuable time & energy on it. But what is much?

I see so many people who can’t even sit an 1-hour behind their laptops, yet they say they want to change their lives, feed their families, and provide for their friends; you have all these goals? But you can’t even sit for a few hours per day behind your laptop or work on something for a few weeks, and if it doesn’t work, you give up?

I mean, what do you expect? That it all is going to be easy? You have to understand that it is not easy. And I’m telling you that as one of the few gurus. The reason why only a select group of people can live their Ideal lives, is because it is not easy. Most people give up.

Understand that if you plant a seed, it won’t grow into a huge tree right away in front of your face. If you plant a seed, it needs water and sun, and it can take weeks, months, or years before it will eventually grow into a big tree.

So does this mean you should give up if you don’t see a tree standing after a few weeks? Does this mean you need to plant a new seed somewhere else again, and again, and again?

That’s what I’m seeing with most starting entrepreneurs. They try something for a short period, but it doesn’t work, and they stop for a moment, waiting again for the perfect moment.

You’ll get a field full of seeds instead of focusing on one seed, providing water, ensuring it gets enough sunlight, and making the tree grow….

This was some real talk from me…
