There are not many people I would have wanted to be the first in-person guest, but @Jamie Barclay is certainly one of them After 2 months working in Romania, we recorded a podcast in Bucharest covering some of the things we had learnt and some other fun stories too (including a bear encounter at night time lol). We actually first met in this group (or maybe it was Andrew's YouTube comment section) and now we're great friends. Thanks to Andrew for making this group; and for everyone else, make the most of this group, because it can be more valuable than you realise I think there is some good stuff in this podcast for beginners about YouTube & business We'll do some more posts about our learnings from this trip All platforms: https://lnkfi.re/sheasbyjamiebarclay2

Most people think there’s some ‘special sauce’ when it comes to being successful in life or a ‘hidden secret’ that all the successful people know. I’m here to tell you there’s no such thing. No ‘hack’. No ‘cheat’. No ‘shortcut’. The truth is, 99% of successful people today have mastered this one simple thing in one form or another: Delaying gratification. They can ignore and rise above temptations today and play the long game for more than 10x the rewards in the future. ——————————- THE EVIDENCE: In 1970, the Stanford Marshmallow Experiment utilised a group of children to see if they could wait 15 minutes to get 2 marshmallows, or have 1 marshmallow instantly. The group of children who could delay gratification and resist the temptation went on to have considerably better life outcomes such as test scores and more general success. It was also found in follow up studies that participants who could delay gratification had higher brain activity than those who could not resist immediate temptation. ——————————- HOW IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE: When you think about it, you can apply the skill of delayed gratification to virtually EVERY area of your life to achieve success. If you can withstand the pain of working out consistently NOW, in the future you will be rewarded with your dream physique which will bring you confidence, appeal and ultimately happiness. If you can avoid the temptation of following the crowd and jumping on trends NOW and start your own business that you are passionate about, in the future you will have built something so strong and secure that you will attract all the money and freedom that a person could want. If you can avoid the comfort blanket of procrastination and distraction via YouTube, social media and gaming NOW and spend time working on your personal goals/dreams, in the future you will unrecognisable and you will FINALLY get where you want to be in life. There are endless applications for delayed gratification. ——————————- HOW TO START:
