0:02 this is exactly how I would go from
0:04 working a 9 to-5 job to becoming an
0:06 independent entrepreneur making a
0:07 million dollars within the next year you
0:10 see I went from earning $55,000 a year
0:13 in a job that I hated to having a net
0:15 worth of over $100 million and let me
0:18 tell you I made so many mistakes but if
0:20 I could go back and do it all over again
0:22 this is how I would do it even faster
0:24 and better so here are my 10 tips to go
0:26 from being a 9 to-5 team member to
0:28 thinking acting and earning like a
0:30 millionaire your first step to becoming
0:32 a millionaire is identifying your
0:34 millionaire skill think about it what
0:36 does a millionaire know that you don't
0:38 know so this is what I would do I would
0:40 go to Google Google is my best friend I
0:42 actually have a hashtag with a sticker
0:44 that a team member gave me that says
0:46 Google that because I say this so
0:48 often so you going to Google occupations
0:49 of millionaires and you're going to come
0:51 up with a list there's going to be
0:54 things like engineer lawyer entrepreneur
0:56 real estate agent and a whole bunch of
0:58 other things where people are actually
0:59 making a million dollars a year and if
1:01 you put this on a grid where you listed
1:03 out all the opportunities and then you
1:05 listed your interest level on a scale of
1:08 1 to five in that career field you're
1:10 going to have a better understanding of
1:11 if you're interested in this thing now
1:13 the next call to look at is do you
1:15 already have knowledge in this area so
1:17 you take all of your businesses you look
1:18 at where you're interested in you look
1:20 at what your skill set is so you
1:22 identify which of these occupations you
1:24 are going to choose to become a
1:26 millionaire in so when I was deciding
1:28 what path I wanted to take in order to
1:29 become a millionaire what I realiz
1:32 realized is I'm not great at math and I
1:33 didn't want to go back to school to have
1:35 to get some degree that was going to
1:37 prolong the path for me to actually make
1:39 the money that I wanted to make so I
1:40 decided to become an entrepreneur I
1:42 decided to launch a business this was
1:45 the fastest and easiest path for me
1:47 based on my interest and my existing
1:48 level of Knowledge and Skills you have
1:51 to decide what that is for you pick one
1:53 that you are at least interested in and
1:55 are willing to commit to figure out how
1:57 do you become great millionaire great at
1:59 that particular occupation so now your
2:01 second step is to stop hanging out with
2:03 your broke friends you will never become
2:05 a millionaire if you cannot cut broke
2:07 people out of your life I remember when
2:09 I had this Epiphany that I was going to
2:11 create this business six years ago I
2:13 started telling my friends at the time
2:15 about it and I thought that I was going
2:17 to be met with excitement with questions
2:20 with just some level of support to be
2:22 honest with you and instead of any of
2:25 that my friends made fun of me asked
2:27 kind of condescending questions and what
2:29 was more hurtful than the condescending
2:31 questions was the way that they would
2:33 just ignore this new thing that I was
2:35 doing that I was excited about they
2:37 would continue to talk about old
2:39 all of the old stories things
2:41 that were happening in their life that
2:43 might not honestly be that interesting
2:44 or that different and here I was putting
2:46 all of this time into becoming this next
2:48 version of myself I was learning new
2:49 things I was staying up late I was
2:51 meeting new people to create a new life
2:53 for myself that I was so excited about
2:55 and they couldn't have been any less
2:57 interested your energy is finite your
2:59 broke friends if they're not interested
3:00 in hearing about your goals and they
3:02 aren't excited about supporting you
3:04 they're going to invalidate you which
3:06 might actually cause you to give up in
3:07 the process that's not what you're here
3:09 to do you're here to actually learn the
3:11 steps to make it easy on yourself and
3:13 the fastest way to make this easy on you
3:15 is to get rid of friends who are going
3:17 to hold you back in the process now that
3:19 you've removed your broke friends from
3:22 your life you have to replace them with
3:24 Rich teachers so think of whoever your
3:27 Idol is for me this was a len a card
3:29 down I wanted to be interesting enough I
3:31 wanted to be valuable enough that she
3:32 would want to hang out with me and what
3:35 I realized is Elena would not be hanging
3:37 out with Natalie in present state so
3:38 what does Natalie in presence date need
3:41 to start doing so that if I get the
3:43 opportunity to be in Elena's presence
3:45 she is interested in having a
3:46 conversation with me and let me tell you
3:48 this advice is only for people who are
3:49 really willing to be honest with
3:50 themselves because some people might lie
3:52 to themselves and think well there's no
3:54 reason that Elon Musk wouldn't want to
3:55 hang out with me or Grant Cardone
3:57 wouldn't want to hang out with me but if
3:58 you haven't done anything great if you
4:00 haven't created anything thing great why
4:02 would they want to spend time with you
4:03 and that's a hard pill to swallow
4:05 however once you swallow it then you can
4:07 get into action the most practical tip I
4:10 can give you is to identify the 10 most
4:12 successful people in the specific field
4:13 that you decide that you want to pursue
4:15 where you want to become a millionaire
4:18 in and you study them so I chose the
4:20 Cardone specifically to study because
4:22 they had the stats they were a power
4:24 couple they already had a billion dollar
4:26 net worth which was my Target and they
4:29 worked together those criteria change
4:30 everything for me so this brings me to
4:32 step number four which is stop wasting
4:35 your time time is your most important
4:39 asset your ability to study to learn to
4:42 educate yourself on mornings evenings
4:46 weekends in the shower driving you use
4:48 those opportunities to build the skill
4:50 set that you are learning from the best
4:52 of the best for me that was a
4:54 combination of podcasts YouTube videos
4:56 and books I studied every waking minute
4:58 so that I could get the education
5:00 because if you just believe that that
5:01 somebody knew something more than you
5:03 and that's all you had to do is learn
5:05 from them what they know that you don't
5:07 know that's the hack but most people
5:08 study from the wrong people they don't
5:10 set the target to begin with they don't
5:11 even think that they can become a
5:13 millionaire so all of this work just
5:15 goes to waste and then they waste their
5:17 time they waste their time with Netflix
5:19 they waste their time scrolling
5:21 endlessly on social media you see if you
5:22 want to be a millionaire you should only
5:24 be following millionaires on social
5:27 media you have to stop wasting your time
5:29 on things that aren't allowing you to
5:32 you gain competency if you really want
5:34 to be a millionaire in your chosen field
5:36 you have to be an expert you have to be
5:40 fully competent and understand the terms
5:43 the definitions the players how the game
5:45 works you have to be a student of the
5:47 game that you were choosing to play step
5:49 five is probably the hardest for most
5:51 people to accept and it is to go into
5:53 debt which translates to you have to be
5:57 willing to invest once you invest and
5:59 you realize that the money that you have
6:02 is a tool to get you to where you want
6:05 to go instead of something that you save
6:07 and you afford all of a sudden
6:09 opportunities open up because when you
6:13 invest you can get in the rooms with
6:15 people who have done what you are trying
6:17 to do but without investing and
6:19 potentially having to go into debt you
6:21 are just stuck in your house in your car
6:23 doing what you've always done being in
6:24 the same environment you've always been
6:26 in and you never have to force yourself
6:28 to become the type of person who can be
6:30 in a different room but it feels
6:31 uncomfortable because nobody wants to
6:33 invest before they know how to make
6:35 money but in order to make money you
6:37 have to invest Grant Cardone has my
6:38 favorite quote on this he says if you
6:41 don't invest time and money you will
6:43 never have time and money so for
6:45 instance a $10,000 investment in a
6:47 mastermind is not what's going to make
6:49 you broke what's actually making you
6:50 broke is the fact that you don't have
6:52 the knowledge that is inside that
6:55 $110,000 Mastermind you see you need to
6:57 understand what those teachings are and
6:58 without having access how are you going
7:00 to learn those things see the first time
7:02 that I invested in myself it was a
7:03 marketing course for
7:06 $4,000 I did not have the $4,000 to be
7:08 able to invest in this marketing course
7:10 but I recognized that I needed to get
7:12 myself out there I needed to get myself
7:14 known and the way that you do that is
7:15 through promotion and through marketing
7:17 so I was at an event it was a women's
7:20 event I was all jazzed up I was excited
7:22 I was like yeah these speakers are
7:24 amazing they just were like lighting me
7:25 up I was like what would it be like if I
7:27 could be up on that stage with them one
7:29 day I deserve to be up on that stage
7:31 with them one day I'm not at that point
7:33 right now but that's what I want so at
7:34 the end of the event they made an offer
7:38 for $4,000 marketing course and I
7:41 panicked like oh my gosh $4,000 is so
7:42 much money and what if I don't make that
7:43 money back what if I could learn all
7:45 this stuff online and then it was just a
7:47 waste of money and then I feel silly and
7:48 all of the self-doubt just started to
7:50 creep in as soon as they started talking
7:52 about $4,000 which was a number that I
7:53 was uncomfortable with but I made the
7:55 investment I just did it I was like I'm
7:57 going all in because it's going to force
7:58 me to become a different version of
8:00 myself and I'm unwilling in one year
8:01 from now to be the same person that I am
8:05 today step six is simply to get yourself
8:07 in the room to go from zero to a
8:09 millionaire you need to get into the
8:11 rooms with people who could actually
8:13 help you if you don't get into the rooms
8:15 you're not going to become that person I
8:17 have attended so many conferences where
8:20 I use them as an opportunity to say
8:22 Natalie in 3 months from now when you
8:24 attend this event you are going to have
8:26 completed XYZ projects so that you can
8:28 talk about this because you know that
8:30 these types of people are going to be
8:31 there and you have to prepare yourself
8:33 cuz right now you're lame right now you
8:34 don't have anything to offer anybody
8:36 it's just the reality but you are going
8:38 to have something to offer somebody
8:40 because in 3 months from now you have a
8:42 Target and you can create something in 3
8:44 months from now you can create a landing
8:46 page you can create an offer you can
8:48 make movement if you know that you've
8:50 committed yourself to be a place in the
8:52 future so you become somebody in the
8:54 process of attending that event that is
8:56 valuable to the people that you know are
8:58 going to be there but you are never
8:59 going to take the steps that are
9:01 required if you don't actually commit to
9:02 getting in the room this is why for
9:05 those 10 people that you are studying
9:07 find rooms that they are going to be in
9:09 and invest your money to get in that
9:11 room so that when you show up you are
9:13 forcing yourself to become the type of
9:14 person that they would want to spend
9:17 time with you get in the proximity to
9:18 people who are making a million dollars
9:20 and when you are in proximity you
9:22 freaking impress the hell out of them
9:24 the next step is to find out who is
9:26 going to be in this room and research
9:29 the hell out of them my motto is become
9:31 the ultimate stalker but the good kind
9:33 of stalker the stalker who is informed
9:35 the stalker who does their research and
9:37 isn't creepy and weird don't be that
9:39 kind of soccer but the person that
9:41 actually shows up and has looked up
9:43 people ahead of time knows who their
9:44 targets are because when you go to an
9:46 event the target is not needing every
9:47 single person that would be an
9:49 unsuccessful action the target is
9:52 finding the handful and remember this it
9:54 is always a handful you were trying to
9:57 find a handful of people who can help
9:58 you get to where you were trying to go
10:00 so when you look at the event ahead of
10:02 time how can you find out who is going
10:04 to be in the room do they have a
10:05 WhatsApp group do they have a Facebook
10:07 group how are people inside this
10:09 community connecting what's cool about
10:11 living in today's day and age is that
10:13 when you go to an event like this they
10:16 are likely trying to build a community
10:17 which means that they have some sort of
10:19 a community already existing ahead of
10:22 time so do your freaking research this
10:24 is what millionaires do they always go
10:27 into rooms totally prepared your next
10:29 step to acting and earning like a
10:31 millionaire is learning how to sell
10:33 because you see the richest most
10:35 successful people you know they all know
10:38 how to sell making money is a game
10:40 comprised of knowing how to sell every
10:42 single day you're going to have to sell
10:44 yourself sell your customers and sell
10:46 your future team members on who you are
10:49 what you do and why anybody should care
10:51 so regardless of if you want to be an
10:54 engineer a lawyer an entrepreneur a real
10:56 estate agent you have to learn how to
10:58 sell so I strongly recommend that you
11:00 are learning in the skill that you
11:01 decided that you were going to become a
11:04 millionaire in while concurrently
11:06 learning how to sell because sales will
11:08 follow you through out your millionaire
11:10 process the best person to teach on
11:13 sales is Grant Cardone he changed my
11:14 life when I read the book sell or be
11:17 sold because it teaches you how to get
11:19 sold on yourself first so that then you
11:21 have confidence in selling other people
11:23 on you but if you aren't sold on you
11:24 first you're going to have a lot of
11:26 challenges selling other people cuz
11:27 you're going to feel a little bit like a
11:28 fraud and to me that is the
11:30 misconception in sales is that it's
11:33 braggy or that you have to be stumping
11:34 somebody or giving them something that
11:36 they don't want it's about listening to
11:38 somebody it's about understanding their
11:40 problems and it's about you offering
11:42 effective solutions to move them away
11:44 from their problems at this point you
11:47 pick a niche you've made new friends
11:49 you've invested time and money learning
11:51 and getting into the room and you've
11:53 learned how to sell now it's time to
11:55 start making money but we need to be
11:57 crystal clear on our goals which is why
12:00 step nine is to set to your millionaire
12:02 metrics you will never be a millionaire
12:04 if you don't have millionaire metrics
12:05 the coolest thing about becoming a
12:07 millionaire is that it is literally just
12:10 math if you made
12:12 $2,740 a day you would be a millionaire
12:14 so whatever it is that you are selling
12:16 you have to do the math backwards to
12:18 understand how many of those units how
12:19 many of those products how many of those
12:21 Services you would need to sell in order
12:23 to generate a million dollars but once
12:24 you understand how many units you have
12:26 to sell you do have to break it down for
12:29 day so that every single day you know
12:31 what your goals are in order to hit your
12:33 million dooll targets you have to get
12:35 clear on your Target and what you need
12:37 to be doing each and every day because
12:39 as you come into challenges and
12:41 roadblocks that's okay it is quite
12:43 literally part of the process but if you
12:45 give up on the way because you become
12:48 unenthused or uninspired or you're not
12:49 even looking at your targets any longer
12:51 then you're never going to get there
12:52 knowing that you're going to come into
12:54 obstacles it's just part of the game the
12:56 final step to thinking acting and
12:58 earning like a millionaire is to remind
13:00 yourself every that you are still broker
13:03 you should remind yourself every single
13:06 day that you are broke now you might be
13:07 thinking Natalie I already know that I'm
13:09 broke I don't need to be reminded every
13:12 day yes you do you have to be reminded
13:15 not only that you're broke today but
13:17 more importantly what it is that you are
13:19 working so hard for so that you don't
13:22 give up in the process so my process is
13:24 I look at my vision board I look at my
13:26 bank account I look at my vision board I
13:28 look at my bank account I go back and
13:31 forth because because my reality doesn't
13:34 meet my potential yet your reality today
13:36 where you are your circumstances they
13:38 don't meet what your potential is your
13:40 potential is so much greater than what
13:42 you've already created but you have to
13:44 have this vision of where you're going
13:46 and have a real strong conviction that
13:47 you can actually become a millionaire
13:49 you can actually have what other people
13:51 are able to have you just have to learn
13:52 very specific things that you don't know
13:54 now in order to get there when you
13:56 simplify it and start thinking about it
13:58 in that way you actually can create your
14:00 dream life and speaking of creating your
14:02 dream life if you want to know my
14:04 process for how to create a dream life
