I know this might offend you, but you're not actually working hard. Even if you're putting in 14 hours a day, seven days a week, like I was when I was building my first company, that's not hard work. That's just work. Now you might be asking yourself a question. What's hard work? It's not doing the thing you already know how to do.
And it's the kind of hard work that's allowed me to go from broke 17 year old to a multimillionaire today. So I'm going to share with you what it actually means to work hard. 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. And make sure you don't miss anything by subscribing to my newsletter at martellmethod.com.
Why am I not working hard?
You're probably not working hard because you're scared that you're gonna have to sacrifice the things you enjoy doing, which is watching TV, hanging out with friends, playing video games, scrolling on social media, lazing around. Those things will have to go. People ask me all the time, it's like, what have you done to be successful? It's actually what I don't do.
I don't sit around and do nothing. I don't smoke vapes. I don't gamble. I don't watch sports. I don't watch the news. I don't do a lot of stuff that created the space for me to actually win. Most people don't wanna work hard because it means actually killing off those things that are distracting them.
The way I think about it is make a list of all the things that you say, I'm not willing to sacrifice. Those are the reasons why you will not win at the level that you want to, if you have big ambitions for your life. Don't tell me you have crazy big dreams of being mega wealthy and then act small. Those things do not correlate. That's why people are scared to work hard.
Or they might've worked hard in the past and it burnt them out because they didn't have the right psychology to deal with that level of stress. Maybe they were under stress because they were working on something that they didn't even wanna do. See, when I'm pursuing a goal that I'm after, my mission, my crusade, then it doesn't feel hard. It doesn't feel like work.
It feels like I'm building the building blocks to actually achieve. So don't allow past moments where you felt the pressure to stop you from stepping up again today.
