This is the Ed Milet Show. Hey, everyone. Welcome to my weekend special. I hope you enjoy the show. Be sure to follow the Ed Milet Show on Apple and Spotify. Links are in the show notes. You'll never miss an episode that way. Now on with the show. Welcome back to the show, everybody. So today's topic is what advice would I give my younger self? or to young people in general about winning in their life and being successful and prosperous. And so that might even be a 10-year-old. It could be 15, 18, 25. You could be 30. It may even be that it's not even young in age, but it's young in the sense that you feel behind in your life and you want to turn it around and you need kind of a game plan to make things happen and just completely change your life.
But I wrote this today and thought about it in terms of talking to a 10-, 12-, 15-year-old person, but it'll apply to anybody. So I'm going to start out with 15 keys that I think are required that would be my advice that I've given to my own children who are now both in college, but I started giving them this advice when they were very, very young, 8, 9, 10 years old. So number one is this. If you're going to win in life, very simple rule, outwork everyone. And I know that there's all these substitutes about shortcuts, work smart, not hard. Let me tell you the truth. At the top of everything in life, everybody's smart. And what separates them is hard work. Remember that again. At the top of every craft, there are brilliant people.
There are very smart people. There's no secrets or shortcuts to success in life. And if you're listening to this and you're in your 30s, you want to go to the next level, whatever it might be, I want to remind you or maybe for the first time tell you, maybe it's a wake-up call. You've got to outwork everyone. And I've pushed this with my children over and over and over again. And quite frankly, I saw my own dad do that. My dad was a hard worker. My dad was up every single day before anybody else in the house, was gone before the sun was up. And he came home when the sun was down. And I watched hard work happen. Now, one of the things I would love to see happen for more of you is that you prove that hard work pays off.
I watched my father work and work and work and really never get all the rewards that I thought he deserved. But if you find the right outcome, the right business, the right thing you're passionate about, outwork everyone. Number one rule to being successful in life. Number two, be willing to work for nothing or very little to be right next to a mentor. Too many people aren't willing to sacrifice short term. I've told my children, if you can get close to a mentor, even if you've got to work for free for a while and have a second job and get close to them and up close. See, listen, there's this great Chinese proverb that says, if you want to know the road ahead, ask those coming back.
