The Tai Lopez Show

I just talked with John Lee, self made millionaire, about how to he made his money. He thinks that you become a millionaire in your mind before you actually become a millionaire in the real world. You need to get in a mental positive loop to reach your goals.I really agree with something else he said, "pay for the best advice you can afford, because you will lose more money on your mistakes."I talk about that in Step #19, "Amazon.com & The $32,000 Brain Budget."

Today I was reading the book, "The One Thing" by Gary Keller. It's all about getting things done. Reading this reminded me about one of my habits that massively boosts my productivity. Stop making lists. Lists create cognitive loading. Your brain is like an attic - it has only so much room before it gets filled. Lists use up too much space and limit deep thinking.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoicesSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ask yourself: What is the worst attitude that you can have? The attitude that will sabotage basically every plan, every hope, and every dream that you have?I talk about this in step #67 in the 67 steps, watch it herehttps://www.tailopez.com/product.php?id=FS-0998&source=pc&aff=ben&ad=640034Today's book of the day is "Devil at My Heels: A Heroic Olympian's Astonishing Story of Survival as a Japanese POW in World War II" by Louis Zamperini. I would say it's probably being a victim. That's where we can learn a lot from Louis Zamperini.  Louis is a man's man.  After representing the United States at the Olympics, he fought in World War II where he became a POW, survived the Japanese shooting at him, fought off a Great White Shark for 2 days and lost 100 lbs surviving in the middle of the Pacific Ocean for 47 days with no water.  In fact I'm super sad he recently died at 97 about a week after we set up an interview with him here in L.A. I really missed out on a legend. Pick your friends wisely, become the kind of friend you want. Don't be a victim. Keep it in check my friend. What's your end game goal? Write it right here. Tell me about your victimhood and how your'e going to get rid of it. Write it right here on the page whether it's Youtube or Tailopez.com. If you're listening on my podcast, leave it as a review. Remember: Never be a zombie.
