Often there are so many things pulling at your attention that it can be challenging to prioritize the important ones.
The main focus should be the marketing message. It has the most significant impact on your ability to make money.
The best way to describe what marketing messages are is by describing what marketing is not. Marketing messaged is not a company logo, company name, or website color theme. It isn't even the advertising words you write for a facebook ad.
The marketing message is what you are communicating to the world. The message is designed to alter the belief system of the person receiving it. When a person hears your marketing message, the recipient must believe your message is more real than what they previously found to be true.
Russel Brunson, in his book "Dot Com Secrets," breaks down a compelling marketing message into three parts in his dotcom secrets book.
The message must demonstrate the vehicle of truth works, assure the person they are capable of driving the vehicle of truth, and assure the person they have all the resources they need while driving the vehicle of truth.
You could think of this as an actual car. Does the car do what it says it will do? Can you operate the vehicle with your current skills? Does the car have gas in the tank, oil in the engine, and a service warranty for routine maintenance?
With those components in place, your marketing message will be well received. Your ability to serve your customers will increase because the people receptive to your message will want to work with you.
Surely you could argue there are other important tasks. My challenge to you is only to delegate the rest and focus on revenue-generating activities at the beginning. Russel Brunson calls this the who not the how. Focus on whom you need to get things done, not the how.

🥊 Mentorship Minute: Wasted potential is accepting defeat

Let's talk about the pain associated with failure. That pain we feel is a tool we can use to create lasting change in our lives. Lasting change is what helps us become our future desired selves.
Sometimes we might not have clarity on what we want for our future self. If you lack that clarity, begin with writing down on paper your vision and recognize that you need to revisit that paper often.
A few days ago, I shared with you the news about record suicide rates associated with IIT student academic failure. I can not fathom the pain from failure that would make me want to end my life.
I sincerely believe as a global culture, we need to work on our acceptance of failure. That pain is a good thing. It is tailored precisely to the skills we need to build to become successful.
Pain is our most excellent learning tool. Own your failure. The lessons and skills we learn to overcome failure is a process. We will tell stories about the process for the rest of our life.
Our pain is our story, and is what gives us our unique life experience. What is even more amazing is that no person entirely experiences the chain of pain we each endure because no one fails as we do.
We all have a unique life experience peppered with failure and triumph.
If you believe that last statement, then you must also think that the chain of failure is what gives us the unique skill set we need to position yourself for the success of our desired future self.
Isn't that freakin liberating. Your failures are an opportunity for greatness and the exact key you seek to unlock the success you want. Wasted potential is accepting defeat.
You are on this planet for a reason. Own your life experience by owning the failure. See the opportunity your pain provides and lean into it. Enjoy the skills you build on overcoming your failure.
Don't forget to document the journey, so you never forget how your greatness became.

Welcome to part 3 on tips you can use to monetize your programming skills. These nuggets were inspired from the podcast episode Jordan Belfort hosted with Grant Cardone.
- Concept #1: How to prioritize your capital
- Concept #2: Losen up
- Concept #3: Operate within a framework
- Concept #4: Compare your self to your yester self
Stay tuned for part 4, where we dive into more golden nuggets.
Concept #1: How to prioritize your capital
Invest in yourself at the beginning. The health of your business is dependent on your mental health and outlook on life. Do whatever it takes to clean yourself up and make yourself feel great. You can see what you value by auditing your spending. If your audit results show money allocated towards things that rust, rott, or depreciate as soon as you buy them, then it might be stupid crap. I am 100% guilty of pulling this trick on myself and am continually auditing my spending habits to eradicate poor allocations. Focus on placing money towards improving yourself or on things that generate cash flow. Invest in your brand if you have transcended the discipline of optimized capital allocation. As all skillsets are progressing towards becoming a commodity, the brand will become the ultimate differentiator.
Concept #2: Losen up
Everything we do in life is sales. Selling requires an adaptive mind. When you are tense, your ability to be adaptive becomes hindered.
Concept #3: Operate within a framework
Set your goals and create a system of accountability. Accountability is easy to accomplish when you review them often. Create the metrics you want to measure. You can not manage what you do not measure. If you desire freedom, your behavior requires structure; stucture sets you free.
Concept #4: Compare your self to your yester self
If you are not where you want to be, just realized only you are capable of changing your position on the continuum between noob and expert. Comparing yourself with other people does not help your effort to improve. Compare your self to your yester self.
