Default Re: An [make money] aha moment (partly based on Ankesh's parable)...

Thanks TW.

I think you are onto something. You can bypass the ego.

I'm a big fan of the concept of yin and yang. Everything is circular.

If you're happy - you'll smile. If you smile - you'll become happy. It works both ways.

If you have the right mental attitude, your path to success becomes easier. But circularly, if you get started on the right path - your mental attitude will rectify itself on its own.

Action leads to thought. Thought leads to action.

Some time back, I got to thinking what would make for an ideal non-institutional education for someone who wasn't artistically inclined? What educational path should you take if you want to become an entrepreneur?

My curicullum would focus on getting people started on taking action that would get rid of their mental blocks. And at the same time, expanding your mental horizon with good books and friends.

1. Start off with 30 day rejection therapy.

2. At the same time, start off with 30 day thank you letter writing campaign:

3. Then start on with Doubling Your way to a Million $ campaign:

4. Read 1 biography every 1-2 weeks.

5. Finally create a support group. Get mentors. Form mastermind groups with like minded folks. (Or maybe this could be the first step.)

3.b. After crossing the 17th stage of the Doubling Challenge, more time should be spent in finding a few good systems and strategies for managing:

i. time / tasks
The autofocus system: http://www.markforster.net/autofocus-system/

ii. money
http://www.amazon.com/Richest-Man-Ba.../dp/0451205367

iii. people

This I think would be an ideal education for entrepreneurs.

(The parable was written by Simon Latouche. I wish I had written it though. Simon Latouche's posts in the archive are brilliant.)
