- Life is so crazy...
Life is so crazy...
I can’t believe this happened
Today I finally decided to reflect a bit on my life, and man it’s actually crazy.
Only 6 months ago I started a new business by myself with very little resources and direction.
Now within those 6 months here’s what happened:
Got married
Scaled an offer to a quarter mill in monthly revenue
Scaled another offer to nearly half a mill in monthly revenue
Launched a brand new coaching offer that collected nearly $100,000 in its first month
Onboarded 7 DREAM clients that I currently work with
Became the head of growth operating at a $1B company and immediately made an impact
Stacked up more capital than I’ve ever possessed before
Now I typically never reflect on my life…
I’m always working, scheming, and putting out fires til 2 am and most times I can barely remember what happened yesterday.
But after doing this little reflection exercise I have so much excitement for what’s yet to come.
On top of that, I’ve gained a new unique perspective.
For example - initially, I was going to start posting YouTube content on “Growth Operating”...
But after this exercise, I’ve realized I’m playing a completely different ballgame than every other growth operator in the market.
I don’t need to sell a course, nor do I need to post cringey content on socials to cover my rent.
In fact - I earn far more profit than most course sellers simply from my agency.
At the time of this writing, I probably have 10 unanswered DM’s from people who want coaching from me…
Why I haven’t responded?
Because I don’t need their money, nor do I care to give my sauce to someone else just from them to saturate a market that I OWN.
On top of that, I don’t want to belittle myself by putting myself in the same category as the guys who think they are “competing with me”.
Because they're not in reality.
So now I’m rethinking my entire approach.
In short…
Doing these little reflection exercises are pretty damn helpful.
And I suggest that all of you do the same periodically.
In my opinion, I think quarterly reflections are the most optimal.
That way you don’t gaslight yourself too much in the thick of chaos, and you can get a big enough body of work to look back on and give you the momentum you need to keep going.
That’s it for today’s email,
