Hey {{first_name|bro}},
Have you ever played some typa combat video game?
Maybe it’s COD or maybe it’s mortal combat, but nonetheless, they all have one thing in common.
Actually, so do the ones like the Elden Ring.
It's the way you actually get good.
Like for example in Elden Ring there’s these extremely hard bosses you gotta beat to win the game.
And when I say hard, I mean hard.
It’s not something you can just beat the first time if you’re luckly.
You’ve got to try again, and again, and again.. Until you finally beat that boss and go to the next one.
And that’s what makes video games training to get rich.
The way you actually get rich is by trying to do something again and again and again until you make money and then live the life.
See the thing in common?
It’s repetition.
That’s the single most important thing you can do if you want to get rich.
Wanna get good at copywriting? Write 100 emails.
Wanna get good at outreach? Ssend 100 outreaches.
Wanna get a girlfriend? Don’t. Get your money up first.
Anyways that’s my wisdom for today…
Pece.
