A MESSAGE FOR YOU DURING THE GREAT 2020 RECESSION

You have probably already experienced a slowdown, as business has been shrinking significantly in most parts
of the world. Regrettably, I’m sure you are feeling the effects—and I’m sure you don’t like it.

In fact, I hope you don’t like it, and I would encourage you to hate it so much that you are willing to do anything
to fight back. Despite the fact that we’re enduring a time when many people will suffer—with millions out of work, companies failing, and entire industries to be disappearing—it is also a time to learn and use specific strategies to
turn the tide.

New companies, products, and even industries are born out of economic challenges.

I want you to be a person who wakes up every day wanting to be first in your industry or field, who is not
victimized by what appears to be reality but who creates a new reality out of the opportunity and rubble of the old.

So, this guy was off to a fairly good start financially.

But when you start getting a bit of money, that’s when the DANGER comes in because you have something to play with…

 

YOUR LIFE HAS TWO OPTIONS

2020 IS A PIVOTAL TIME IN YOUR LIFE WHERE YOU CAN EITHER MAKE THINGS BETTER OR HAVE THINGS GET WORSE.

Here’s the truth: My life is NOT just the Instagram shots of the plane, the nice cars, the stacks of money, the sold-out stadiums…

But I do want to tell you what it takes to become successful and do these things.

This pivotal moment you have in your life this year will launch where you’re going for the next 10 years.

Your life can go one of two ways:

It can go very, very different…GOOD… or very, very different BAD.
