These lies you’ve been told have been ingrained in our society to keep money and power out of your hands. But there are principles, although some controversial, that can reverse these lies and allow you to build wealth from nothing. I’ve personally used some of these principles to go from a broke 17-year-old to making my first million at 27 years old.

Full Episode
These are the five strategies you can steal that successful CEOs use to get more done in 12 weeks than most get done in 12 months. Welcome to the Martell Method. I went from rehab at 17 to building a $100 million empire and being a Wall Street Journal bestselling author. In this podcast, I'll show you exactly how to build a life and business you don't grow to hate.
My bestselling book, Buy Back Your Time, is out now. Grab a copy at buybackyourtime.com or at any of your preferred online retailers. Strategy number one to get more done is set your boundaries. See, your inbox is nothing more than a public to-do list of other people's priority on your time.
I like to use this concept called the Eisenhower matrix that looks at everything through two axes, important and urgent, then use the right response to get people to move things forward. So for example, one of the boxes, not important, not urgent. Well, then just send me an email. I don't need to stop and talk right now. Number two is important, not urgent.
Well, post it in Slack or a team communication. Third is not important and urgent. Send me a text, right? Because it's like, it's going to be there. I'll get to it. And number four, if it's important and urgent, how about you give me a call? Make my phone ring. Because then I'm going to pay attention.
There's this funny story where my buddy Chad, he owns a retail store, and he got mad at me for texting him at 6 in the morning because his phone was going off and he was still sleeping. I said, hey, dude, why don't you put your phone in do not disturb and then sleep in? He goes... Well, it'd be cool to do that. But unfortunately, my security alarm from my retail store comes to my phone.
So if somebody breaks in, I need to know. And I was thinking to myself, dude, you're not the only person in the world that has this problem that has a retail store. Like you can find a solution. He's routing it improperly. I mean, if somebody's breaking into my house, I want to go to the police, not to my cell phone. I get frustrated with this all the time.
I remember one time I was on a finance meeting and the team's going through all the different aspects and I'm going, why are we having a meeting about this when this could have been an email that I could have reviewed on my own time, not spend 45 minutes in the calendar. Why? Because somebody booked it. We didn't verify if the agenda was needed. Think about it.
Some of the stuff that you're dealing with on a day-to-day basis, you need to push back, get people to use the right channel so that it doesn't eat up into your time. And it goes way beyond just the channel. Think about like times and days. Like if it's a weekend, don't call me unless there's like a fire. If it's the morning when I'm creating, then please send me an email.
So you also have to protect yourself. You got to share your preference for communicating with not only your boss, your clients, your friends, and then teach them how to treat you by not always responding right away. I mean, some of it, you're doing it to yourself.
