3 Habits That Made Me A Millionaire By 18

now look i know from the bottom of my heart that this video is gonna create future millionaires because i'm actually gonna be sharing the three habits that made me a millionaire by the age of 18. now some of these might surprise you and some of these might even trigger you but years later and having made over 17 million dollars in profits later and actually retained over 10 million dollars after taxes i feel so now i can look back very candidly and really pick out the three key habits that made me make my first million by

the age of 18. so with no further ado let's get straight into it now the first habit may seem kind of small and relevant but it highlights a much bigger issue as to why you're not where you want to be in life so first habit actually made me a millionaire was turning my phone on airplane mode pretty much the first three years of my business was built pretty much entirely while my phone was on airplane mode and i'll explain why you see most people think that the reason they are not a millionaire is because of

lack of energy like they don't have enough energy or motivation to do something or a lack of knowledge a lack of knowledge understanding and they think these are usually the two main reasons why that is actually incorrect in ninety percent of cases in ninety percent of cases the thing that they lack is focus because if you have a focus then you will do the work and doing the work and getting into that state of flow actually gives you that energy of motivation and when you are someone who can sit down and focus on a task

for a prolonged period of time you will inevitably get the knowledge and information that you need in order to make a million dollars so this is why putting your phone on airplane mode is so important because ladies and gentlemen we live in a world where it you know there's constant notification constant distractions so you know most people the phone isn't enough most people have you know a apple watch with notifications going on 24 7 and their computer is digging here and being there you need to reclaim your focus you should not let anyone rob you

of the most important thing that you have which is your focus and your attention so that's why in the first three years of my business it didn't matter what i was doing i made sure my phone was on airplane mode and it was in the other room so that way i had no distractions and i could focus single-handedly on my task now i know what some of you guys are thinking no i actually need my phone i need notifications i need to be able to stay connected in order for my work my career uh you

know a new business that i'm starting etc etc and you know that could for sure be true but undoubtedly some of the best work that you will do some of the best deep focus work that you will do will be when your phone is on airplane mode so you know same thing with me when i built my business i had to actually have my phone on i had to stay connected i had to take zoom meetings all that stuff so i had to be connected but the first few hours of my day i always had

my earphone on airplane mode and i made sure that i was the one who chose where my attention and my focus was going now if you're in a position where you truly think you know you need your phone uh on pretty much all the time for your work well then i just challenge you at least while you are sleeping at night put your phone on airplane mode while you're showering you don't need your phone on try to find these little pockets of time where you challenge yourself to put your phone on airplane mode and make

sure that you are the one who is steering your attention and steering your focus ladies and gentlemen as i said we live in such a crazy world where the standard is so low of focus the standard is so low because so many people are just sucked in by instagram facebook youtube uh this notification that notification etc etc tick tock i mean don't even get me started and for that reason as i said the bar is so low of how much focused output someone can do so that means that even if you're a person who can

put their phone on airplane mode and just focus on tasks for 30 minutes that already puts you in honestly the top five percent three percent of the population so habit number one was turning my phone on airplane mode which was really just to signify a much larger issue that the world is facing which is a lack of focus the next habit that made me a millionaire by the age of 18 was choosing the right vehicle it absolutely breaks my heart to see people who work so incredibly hard are so dedicated but yet no matter how

hard they work by the age of 30 they will never even see a million dollars i mean really these are people who sacrifice all of their 20s and the reason that is is because they have not chosen the right vehicle now the right vehicle is one of two things it's something where either you're paid very well for your time or it's something that you can actually use leverage now when i say leverage i mean you can outsource to people you can hire people you can uh build a product and you can sell without you actually

being the person to deliver now the business that i started when i was 16 years old you know a lot of you guys probably already know my story in the business that i've been running for five and a half years now the business that i started actually was a tick for both of those it was something where i was paid very very well you know when i started my business which was an online boutique marketing agency at first it was actually a creative agency the first you know a year and a half and i was

paid good retainers by clients in order to shoot content for them and then actually distribute and grow their social platforms and that was great but really after the first nine months of doing it i was kind of capped out at around 10 to 15 000 a month so that's when i started to use leverage i started to hire contractors and i actually repositioned my offer to run ads for online businesses and that was really when i started hitting the hundred thousand dollar months plus in my business and ladies and gentlemen since then i've started three

other businesses in very different industries so i understand what choosing the right vehicle is and how to actually properly assess these different vehicles now i've said it in many many podcasts that i've even been uh you know a guest on i am not the hardest worker right there are people undoubtedly i had to work extremely extremely extremely hard to build up my business and then get it to the point where i made my first million by the age of 18. of course undoubtedly but since that point you know making well over 15 million dollars more

i didn't do that by being necessarily the hardest worker i did it by choosing the right vehicles now if you want to choose the right vehicle and the right model for you i actually made this really cool chart where i assessed all the different business models the pros the cons and i put it in a table all visually now if you want access to that it's entirely free it's just a separate youtube video i made it's not going to take you to any weird page or anything like that click the link right below this video

in order to access that chart entirely for free that video where i really try to dive deep and find what the best business model is in 2022 that video has gotten hundreds of thousands of views people went crazy for it so you can definitely check that out if you want to just start to get an idea of the right business model to use in 2022 but anyways that kind of ties in and summarizes that point which is it's not necessarily about how hard you work it's about how hard you work plus what vehicle are you

in ladies and gentlemen i want you to go ahead and drop a like on this video if you're gonna be a future millionaire and in the comments also leave which habit out of the three do you think is the most important to making your first million for anyone in the comments i'm going to be giving away a pair of blue light blockers from my e-commerce brand gadget and you'll find the winner to that in the next video the last habit that made me a millionaire by the age of 18 was journaling i really hope that

you didn't roll your eyes of that but hear me out for a second when you are first getting started with entrepreneurship or self-help or you know really trying to further your career a lot of times you have a lot of self-doubts and a lot of times you aren't very self-aware you don't understand yourself you don't understand why are you feeling these emotions you know why are you perceiving something a certain way you don't understand when you're for example projecting your own insecurities or your own doubts on a situation so what journaling is is journaling is

a way to really hold a mirror at yourself now on the list of attributes that makes a highly successful person for me self-awareness is somewhere near the top now journaling every day really really hones in your self-awareness and as i said this is by far one of the most powerful tools when you are trying to get to your first million in life because along the journey you will have doubts you will have you know thoughts that creep in and if you don't have self-awareness then those thoughts and those doubts might you but if you do

things like journaling or for example meditating then you start to understand yourself and you start to understand that sometimes these thoughts aren't necessarily you so from the ages of 14 to 19 i basically religiously journaled every morning and every evening and as that really really helped me build off my level of self-awareness and understand the mental change that i was placing on myself and how to break free of those now these days sometimes i'll go months without journaling and then i'll go for you know a month and i'll journal every single day it's really when

i feel as though i need it you know it's it's a it's a muscle that you train self-awareness so once you get to that point where you're just a very sort of self-aware person in general then things get a little easier and you don't actually have to journal every single day so really just to round out this video i want to say that if you are the type of person who is consuming this sort of content on youtube this tells me that very very likely you are on your path or maybe you've already accomplished hitting

seven figures in life another thing that i want to say is when you reach a million you'll actually realize that you know it's just a number you know it's just a number it's just one milestone and and you realize really the true beauty in life you know the the reward to playing the game and winning is that you get to keep playing and that's the really cool thing you know it's like you hit these milestones and you think that you know once you hit these milestones you're like oh i did it and no not really

you just kind of sit back at your desk the next day and you're like all right let's keep climbing and i think for me that is really just the beauty of all this stuff so on that note i hope you guys enjoyed the video go ahead like leave that comment and let me know which habit and i'll catch you on the next one you
