Most people I know are academically smarter than me.
Like SAT scores? Couldn’t tell you. College GPA? Not impressive. 🤣
But there are very few people I know who are making more money than I am.
And I don’t say that to be weird or brag. But it’s the reality, and when I was reflecting this week I realized there are actually 3 things that allowed me to make way more $$ than the valedictorian of my graduating class…
…and they might not be what you’d expect…
Cool if I share them with you?
1️⃣ Resourcefulness
I hear *a lot* of excuses from people about why they can’t make $$ online.
I know that might sound harsh, but I want to hold your hand while I say this – if you’re not making $$ online it’s because you’re making excuses.
And I get it. You don’t have an aesthetic home, or enough followers, or the college degree, or that one certification, or enough time…
My question is this: how willing are you to figure out a solution to any given problem?
Personally, I just won’t take no as an answer. 🤣
If someone tells me something can’t be done, I’m either asking another person or going down a rabbit trail to figure out how I can do the thing myself.
The thing I think people forget about resourcefulness is it literally, by definition, means you don’t have money or resources so you figure it TF out.
Resourcefulness = an inner determination that: I’m going to do this thing I don’t care who tells me I can’t do it.
Can you do that? If yes – you’re going to be just fine.
2️⃣ An Inner Belief That This Is Possible For You
Do you have an inner, unshakable belief that success, wealth, abundance is actually possible for you?
Yes or no?
I want to say: this one is really hard. Especially if you grew up in an environment where wealth is not the norm (or frowned upon – like you heard wealthy people were “evil” or “greedy”).
If nobody in your family has ever been rich, everyone you’re around isn’t rich, being rich seems like a “bad” thing - then it’s hard to believe something else is possible for you.
But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. It just means it’s gonna take some rewiring of your subconscious mind to believe that something different than what you have ever had or have ever seen is possible for you.
If deep down you look at people who have wealth and think “that will never be me” – then you’re right…it will never be you.
But the only shift you need to make is in your mindset and how you start showing up with aligned action. So here’s what I want you to do instead…
You know when you order at a restaurant, you don’t get your food immediately? But you trust that it’s coming to you so you behave accordingly.
Do that with wealth, followers, success, money.
Place your order with the universe. Know what you want is coming to you. Look at what you want and think – like really think – that will be mine soon.
Then behave like it.
Literally I dare you to do this for one week. Then tell me how your life transforms.
3️⃣ Value Consistency > Perfection
I’m not Type A. I am a very Type B girlie.
I don’t obsess over every detail. I procrastinate. I’ll get something 85% there and ship it — because I have other sh*t to do.
I always thought being Type B was a negative thing. But now I realize this ONE quality took me leaps and bounds past the people who are perfectionists.
Every. Single. Day. I take imperfect action.
And you know what? I really in my heart believe that is why I lapped the perfectionists.
While they were tweaking fonts or going one more round of edits on their sales page, I was selling the thing and collecting $$.
Be brave enough to just start. There’s a famous quote that says, “Make it exist now. You can make it good later.”
Do that. I promise it’ll serve you.
So all of that to say even if you aren’t the smartest but you have mental toughness, you already have all you need to get super wealthy.
