Let me tell you what I will never ever do.
I will never lie to you.
I will never over-promise or simplify things.
I will never tell you that you can manifest your way to success.
or vision board your way to making millions?
If that shit worked, more people would have more success.
Ambition has to find you working, and ambition requires discomfort.
If you want to get paid what you're worth, you'll actually need audacity, but it must be coupled with a work ethic to match the level of ambition.
I'm going to hold up a mirror in some parts of this book.
And sometimes that's going to be painful or it's going to be uncomfortable because it really is hard to imagine that some of the shit that holds you back actually comes directly from you.
But the good news, the really good news, is that the ability to change some of it is entirely within you too.
What is the use of thinking about the stuff outside of your control anyway?
It's not a good use of your time or your energy.
And I promise you that.
What is true is that we are all handed a different start in life.
And I acknowledge that.
And I recognize it for you and in you, as I actually did for myself.
It's never fair.
I'm honest about what kept me stuck.
