Introducing 177. 14 Quick Hacks For Massive Business Success with Justin Williams (REPLAY) from Millionaire University.

Follow the show: Millionaire University

Business ideas are a dime a dozen. Execution is everything. I could say that execution is the hard part, but it's really not. Coming up with an execution plan is easy as well. We live in the information age. Everything we could ever want to learn about making money and marketing and selling our product or service is literally at our fingertips.

So if ideas aren't the hard part and coming up with ways to market and sell your product or service aren't the hard part...why is it that not everyone is a deca millionaire with a thriving business that gives them the financial and life freedom they dream of?

The truth is, our brains have been programmed for survival and are not always the best at helping us get the things we really want. You combine that with the modern day, instant gratification world we live in, it's no wonder why we struggle achieving our long-term goals, the things that we truly care about in life.

But our brains are incredibly powerful as well and the modern age we live in can be a huge benefit. We just need to be aware of what we're dealing with and set up the right system for long-term success!
