Today's masterclass where we're digging into the idea that success doesn't follow a step-by-step sequence. Big shoutout to Dan Kennedy for planting the seed on this one. Now, forget everything you've been taught about the traditional one-two-three process. This isn't how most success stories unfold, and it's especially crucial for all you high-achievers out there with goals that break the mold.

If you're the kind of person eyeing that top 10% income bracket or aiming even higher, this episode is tailor-made for you. The usual sequential path to success? Throw it out the window. I'll be breaking down why it doesn't quite cut it for those of us with ambitions that soar beyond the average. So buckle up and let's dive right into it.

Show Notes:

[05:08]#1 Success is not by doing things step by step.

[11:14]#2 Success happens in jagged lines, ups and downs mixed together with many big quantum leaps mixed in leaps in performance, achievement and outcomes. 

[25:04]#3 Overcome the mentality that things have to happen one step at a time and that things have to happen slowly.
