4 Takeaways from Travis’s Little Rock event
Ronin can use any of these right now...
1- “The biggest one for me is that strategy beats tactics. We weren’t taught necessarily about the tactics of creating wealth (though we touched on them to help understand the macro) - but we were taught about the strategy to create wealth. When you get the strategy right, the wealth follows. Strategy is the lynchpin, tactics are way more fluid.”-
James: I’ll add commentary or context on shorter thoughts, but Chris summed up one of the biggest takeaways very well.
2- “Income follows assets” -
James: If you have no assets (communities, offers, lists, etc.) getting control of other people’s assets is a step in the right direction, however…
I think the end goal should be to own your own assets.
Be it by spinning off from a ‘controlled’ asset, building your own, or buying an existing asset.
3- “It was a very profound experience which has to be described with a metaphor…
On day one Travis opened our eyes that the proverbial fish isn’t growing in the supermarket regardless if we want it to be true or not (unless we want to be dependent on a Master selling you basic nutrition)…
Day 2 he talked about where you can find more fish in the ocean than you can possibly need and the tools how to catch it.
Day 3 Travis helped us work out how and where each one of us can catch the juiciest fish.“ -
4 - “‘The solution must exist’ is the only useful stance.” - me
Travis asked a question…
If you watched a farmer throw a diamond the size of your fist into a barn full of hay…
…And if you found the diamond you could keep it…
…How long would you spend looking for it?
Everyone agreed they’d spend as long as it took.
But
If the farmer told you “I threw a diamond the size of my fist in there yesterday. If you find it - you can keep it” …
How long would most people look?
Maybe an hour or two?
Half a day for the really committed?
Not KNOWING 100% that the diamond is there is why most people give up.
However, if we think about the risk and reward?
The risk would be we spend a day or two clearing out the barn and get nothing.
The reward is a diamond worth a Millie for a day or two of work.
(Or even less time if we rent some machines or get people to help us look.)
My takeaway from that story is:
First, if the risk and reward is in our favor - we just have to find a way to make it happen.
Second, “A solution MUST exist” is the only useful stance.
If we don’t believe there’s a way, we’re shutting the barn door, and leaving the diamond inside.
I know I’ve ‘shut the door’ many times thinking there’s another easier diamond to find.
…When, each time, I should just spend the time finding the diamond in front of me.
The diamond is always there.
Many of us just tell ourselves it’s not after a while.
Or maybe that’s just me?
As you can tell from the other guy’s insights there were lots of takeaways and breakthroughs during our 3 day event.
If you’d be game to come to one of Travis’s little group events?...
…Maybe one held in Vegas?...
… Where we’d meet in a fancy suite on The Strip, go deep on our biz and strategy to move forward, and have a heckuva lotta fun…
Could you give me a “Vegas Baby!” in the comments below?
Travis doesn’t travel much but I think I can get him to come speak if enough people said they’d come.
Vegas Baby!
