2. 10x the amount of content you put out and you’ll get 10x the results.
3. Rule 100: Make 100 actions to grow your business EVERY DAY. Normal output gets normal results.
4. Don’t tell people what to do. Show them what you did and how it worked for you.
5. Give away your secrets but charge for the implementation.
