Laws of Simpleology
So, if you’re serious about winning this thing, I’m going to teach you guys stuff that is kind of unusual, alright? And you’re going to be wondering like, “What is this all about?” It’s going to seem very, very, silly to you at a certain point but you’ll get to a point where you’d break through that and you’ll understand why, ok? So I need you to kind of suspend your disbelief for a few things especially for the comedian back there. I know he’s going to be chuckling at some of the stuff… he’s rolling his eyes already.
So, I started realizing I had to stop teaching these guys internet marketing. I had to stop giving them ideas and I had to teach them what I’m about to teach you guys.
Ok, come on up. Here’s what I want you to do. I want you to write, up here, the “First Law of Simpleology.” Just write…
First Law of Simpleology – The Law of Straight Lines. Here’s the point of this, guys. Here’s where you are right now. Here’s where you want to be – here are the things that you want, okay? The point of this is - the shortest path between where you are and what you want in your life is a straight line. And I will tell you right now that the guys who use this are going to have an edge over the guys who do not use this in the next twelve days, okay? And you’ll probably understand why at the end of this thing.
Here’s what I want you to do. I want you to draw a dot… okay.
Now I want you to draw another dot off on the other side there.
Okay. Now what I want, Steve, to do, is I want you to start on that dot on the left and I want you to draw a line. Now if the item that Laura talks about here is going directly toward that goal of starting her own business, I want you to continue to draw a straight line. If it’s not, yeah… exactly.
So read the first item on the list of things you do during the day.
LAURA: Okay, I wake up, gradually, at my own pace.
Okaaaay, maybe it’s a slow nudge toward the line, right?
LAURA: I pull my laptop out from under my pillows and turn it on.
It’s up to you. You choose, you choose. I’m stuck. I don’t know. I mean, I could see that. It could work, you know. It’s honest. That’s good, I like it. And so, it’s relatively straight. Okay, what’s next?
LAURA: I open up my Hotmail account through Outlook and press Send/Receive. And I open up all my IM clients.
True… true statement?
LAURA: Well, it is.
But is that honest? Is his assessment honest?
LAURA: I guess, cause it takes so much of my day whenever it’s like, “Huh, you’re online.”
Okay, so what I want you to do is – shut your email down. Don’t turn on your IM, ok? Don’t do anything, right? Until you do this exercise, we’re going to learn here in a minute the DTP (Daily Target Praxis). That’s the first thing I want you to do. And you’ll understand why. What I’m telling you right now, if you think about it, is going to allow you to win this competition.
