Be a True Lifestyle Entrepreneur (w/ Marc Teo)

Whether you are currently going through a tough time, cruising through, or just feeling tired or uncertain about life right now, remember to take care & be kind to yourself today. You got this! 💙

𝗜𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗮 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆? Yes & no. Yes, because at the end of the day, having a successful business is generally about 2 things: 1) Having a great product/service that can deliver on what you promised 2) Getting more people to buy it We have also crafted 40+ step-by-step playbooks, guides, case studies and scripts to help folks save lots of time and effort from figuring it out on their own. No, because humans are not robots. This is why one of my favourite quotes by Tony Robbins is this: “Success is 80% Psychology and 20% Strategy.” It’s not easy because humans struggle with focus, self-doubt, procrastination, imposter syndrome, quitting too early, and impatience. I know because I’ve struggled with all of these before. This is also why I’ve engaged an amazing coach, @kwong_wai_wai, to help my clients overcome the above. She has worked with Tony Robbins' team for 4+ years and has built a successful lifestyle business too. But my suggestion is this…not everyone has to build a business. Only do it if you really want to. I’ve had clients coming in who think they need to build a business, but we realise they are better suited for an employee role instead. By working with us, they could find more lucrative, fulfilling, and amazing jobs that support their ideal lifestyle and goals. One of my private clients even 4Xed her income in less than one year.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝗼 𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘃𝗲𝘀? They understand that doing it alone can be extremely tough, challenging, and usually takes longer to succeed. Everyone can succeed independently, but I usually use the metaphor of the difference between walking to your holiday destination (e.g. Bangkok) versus taking a plane ticket. The first way is “free,” but it will take much longer and involve many more obstacles. The second way costs up to a few hundred bucks, but you get there smoothly. If people can understand this philosophy for their holiday destination, why not do it for other areas of their lives? And if you look at the richest and most successful people out there…you realise that most have coaches or mentors to support them.

Any final piece of advice I have for people? So many to choose from! HAHA. But probably one thing I feel I need to share more with others is that you don’t need to “accomplish” stuff before you feel happy and fulfilled with life. Today, I already feel successful, but not because I achieved all my goals or have zero stress in my life, but because of this: 🥳️I am already working towards a goal that I find meaningful and fulfilling 🥳️I have my loved ones and family members that I get to spend time with 🥳️I have the power to choose how I respond no matter what happens around me 🥳️I am continually growing, learning and developing myself every single day

Focus on your Zone of Genius. Your Zone of Genius (ZOG) are activities you enjoy the most and perform the best at. These are the activities that will help make you rich and happy at the same time. For me, it’s creating step-by-step playbooks & content, and coaching clients…which I focus on doing the most for my business. In addition, I have a strict no-meeting policy on Mondays, and for other weekdays, I never have meetings in the mornings… Because I want to protect my time and energy working on my ZOG. And I know some of you might think this is impossible, as your meetings and schedule are mostly determined by your bosses or colleagues… However, I have helped clients negotiate with their bosses and partners to create more favorable timings, showing that it’s possible if you try. And in the worst case, you just get a “no”, right? Haha.

💙💙💙

How to Enjoy our Work (even if we don’t really like it now) Yes, while I know not everyone has the privilege to love our work all the time… But something that helped me was thinking about how I could enjoy my work. This could mean working at a Starbucks, listening to your favourite music, grabbing a delicious breakfast…or, if you are like me, getting work done from a hotel (I simply love the vibes there). Doing this will not only make you happier, but more productive and focused too!

Accept that Work will suck (at times). I am sure most of us will agree that work is never all sunshine & rainbows. Even the most successful artists, celebrities, or entrepreneurs will have things they might not like at work, and they are bound to feel stress & frustration at one point or another. And so, instead of feeling upset when something does not go how we want… We can either choose to accept that or choose to respond more effectively instead. This can mean learning to be more mindful of our emotions, communicating more effectively, or quitting our jobs if we simply can’t handle it. The more we react with our primal emotions and let work affect our moods and happiness levels… The worse our Monday Blues will get.

Benefits of Having a Compelling Purpose at Work Knowing the bigger mission or purpose behind your work will make you feel more inspired, motivated, and driven during the week. Your Purpose can either include the meaning behind your work (e.g. helping kids, empowering society, etc), Or understanding how your current career can lead you to your dream career, lifestyle or income. I look forward to waking up every day to work because I got clear of both :)

My EXACT Business Plan to make $50,000/Month in 2 Hours a Day Hey folks, When I first started my entrepreneurial journey, I “tried” everything. To put it bluntly, I was a dabbler & seminar junkie. I learnt & did everything including selling on the streets, doing digital marketing, speaking, coaching, and everything in between. When I officially launched my business, I also had a “whatever it takes” attitude and did whatever my coaches & mentors told me to succeed. It felt good to hit anywhere from $10-40k each month but there was always a little voice that would always whisper to me: “How much do you actually ENJOY what you do?” And after months of consideration, I finally gave in to that voice. I started committing to building a Lifestyle Business that is only profitable, but aligned to what I truly enjoy & want. So while I am definitely not perfect or have hit my goals yet…I’ve started to make significant progress while enjoying what I do. And so, presenting you my $50,000/Month Plan moving forward: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCGQhwSEptI

Announcing the most profitable investments I made that helped me generate multiple 6 figures...(exact lessons) For the past couple of years, I've invested >$75,000 into coaching & mentoring programs.

So, sharing my top 5 investments and how it has helped me even today…enjoy! ✅In late 2020, I invested $30k into a coaching program which used to be half my annual salary. It sounded crazy then, but understanding the question, "What's your X-factor?" helped me generate six figures in just six months. Click here to find out exactly what I learnt from my most expensive coaching program ever. ✅In 2019, I invested >$10,000 to become a better speaker & investor.

Today, I hope you take some of the most valuable lessons I’ve ever shared publicly so you can either avoid making the expensive mistakes I made or simply achieve your desired goals faster than before. While some might disagree, I'd always find that my best results usually came only after investing in myself on PREMIUM support & coaching, and here's a philosophy that has helped me over the years: If I am truly committed to achieving a goal or objective, I don't believe in playing small. Plus, my actions actually show it. And so my question of the day is, based on the actions you have taken so far… Are you truly committed to what you say you want?

But I know I can still achieve all of these: ❤️️Make more money than before ❤️️Grow my business and income ❤️️Build amazing relationships ❤️️Have way more freedom and energy ❤️️Be fulfilled and enjoy my life Remember: you can still “fail” but be happy and successful

I am happy because Alex Hormozi openly shared his mistakes to the world. Today, after 250+ coaching calls and conducting 300+ group sessions, I realized that many people struggle because they are afraid of making mistakes. Whether it is because of fear of judgment, being afraid that nobody will buy from them anymore, or how their worst-case scenario will happen as long as they “screw up” once… Which leads many amazing people to play small and never live up to their potential. I’d dare to say if not for the mistakes I have made, I would have never been where I am today; building a multiple 6-figure lifestyle business that allows me to be free, fulfilled, and happy… So, I hope that by “announcing” his mistake, he inspires even more people to realize that being “wrong” is okay. And as long as you are focused on helping more people and willing to adapt… You can’t help but to eventually succeed.

A common content creation mistake people who are starting out make is they try to model after already established and renowned creators. Giving direct advice, sharing random memes/quotes, etc... It's fine if you are doing it just for fun. But if you are optimising for engagements, potential buyers and/or improve your level of following... They usually don't work because what might work for them will not work for you in your stage. Instead, you want to use content that have been proven to work well regardless of your following or expeirence in the space.

Here’s a common mistake I see many new people (incl. myself) make after conducting 250+ coaching calls since I started my business. 😐You want people to pay you lots of money but don’t want to invest in yourself. 😐You want to work less and earn more, but don’t spend time doing what it takes to achieve that goal. 😐You want people to trust and buy from you but don’t keep your commitments to even yourself… 😐You want freedom and fulfillment, but continue doing what keeps you stuck and unhappy… Yes, I get that life can be tough; we all have commitments to juggle, and many of us are simply too tired after work to do much…
