The Only Difference Between Success and Failure

Anyone that suggests to me to do less is either not a real friend or very confused.

BIG IDEA
The 10x Rule

FROM THE BOOK
This is the focus of the 10X Rule: You must set targets that are 10 times what you think you want and then do 10 times what you think it will take to accomplish those targets.
 
Massive thoughts must be followed by massive actions. There is nothing ordinary about the 10X Rule. It is simply what it is says it is: 10 times the thoughts and 10 times the actions of other people. The 10X Rule is about pure domination mentality. You never do what others do. You must be willing to do what they won’t do—and even take actions that you might deem ‘unreasonable.’
 
This domination mentality is not about controlling others; rather, it’s about being a model for others’ thoughts and actions. Your mind-set and deeds should serve as gauges by which people can measure themselves. 10X people never approach a target aiming to achieve just that goal. Instead, they’re looking to dominate the entire sector—and will take unreasonable actions in order to do so. If you start any task with a mind toward limiting the potential outcome, you will limit the actions necessary to accomplish that very goal.
 
Brian's Notes
The 10X Rule.
​
It’s quite simple.
​
Expand your thinking of what’s possible by 10 times.
​
And expand your action by 10 times.
​
A bit nuts? Of course.
​
But also (very importantly) very powerful.
​
Let’s take a moment for a little reflection and make this personal.
​
What’s your vision for your life? What are your goals that inspire you?
​
How can you 10X them?
​
What actions are you taking today in pursuit of those goals? You all in?
​
How can you 10X them?
​
← Awesome.

P.S. I’m smiling as I type this. If your pulse hasn’t increased a tad just exploring those questions then please start from the beginning of this Big Idea and re-read/re-answer those questions until it does. :)
