The difference between people who try to be successful and the ones who actually are, it's just this one thing.

And it's not strategy, it's not money, it's not their ideas.

It's speed.

As a multi -million dollar business owner, I've worked with so many successful people.

And speed is the one thing that separates winners from losers.

So if you want to learn how to move faster than anyone else

and become truly successful and have the dream life that you've always wanted, keep watching.

Let's get started with number one.

You have to follow the cycle of momentum.

This is a cycle of momentum.

First, decide fast.

Second, execute immediately.

Third, review data quickly.

So let's dive into number one, decide fast.

Information is important, but oftentimes I find that people get stuck in information overload.

They want more and more and more and more information.

And with tools like ChatGPT, it can feel like you will never get to the bottom of all of the information

that you need in order to make a decision.

So get comfortable making a decision despite not knowing.

One of the things I recently did on my ChatGPT account is I told it to stop giving me additional context.

If I have a question, give me the exact answer because I was wasting all of this time going through

and saying yes to whatever their next idea was for me to go to the next level of this concept.

Well, instead of making better decisions and fast decisions, I started having paralysis by analysis.

So get the information in order to make a decision as quickly as possible, maybe not having all the data, but making a decision anyway

when it comes to making a decision you have to then move as quickly as possible into the second step

which is execute quickly if you just make a whole bunch of decisions

but you never tell anybody about the decisions

you never apply pressure in order to make sure those decisions are moving forward nothing's gonna happen

so you make the decision and then you execute as quickly as possible

and i'm not saying that you execute next month next week saying execute today?

How do you prioritize moving the most important decisions forward so that you can start to make progress?

And this is why the third step is so wonderful, because it's okay to make a bad decision if you are reviewing the data.

It would be completely irresponsible if I was sitting here saying, just make decisions, execute quickly, create a mess, and live with it.

But that's not what I'm saying.

I do want you to make a decision.

I do want you to execute quickly, but then look at data as quickly as possible after the decision is made so that you can know,

was this a good decision?

And should I do more of this?

Or was this a bad decision?

Do I need to redirect and then go in a different direction?

I honestly think this is one of my superpowers.

I could care less if I'm right.

I will instantly remove my feelings from a decision because

if the data tells me that one decision is the better decision

and I might've thought it was going to be a different one, I don't care any longer.

We're going all in on the one that worked.

You can only get this confidence if you were looking at data as soon as you implement and execute your decisions.

Think about TikTok creators who blow up on social media.

They don't wait to be perfect.

They start by posting daily and adjusting based off what works.

These are the same principles to follow in business.

Just remember that you should be iterating relentlessly and making micro adjustments while you're moving forward.

Next is number two.

Imperfection is the new perfect.

I see creators online all the time, posting unpolished content, and it still blows up and goes viral.

And here's why that works.

People don't want super polished.

They don't want super buttoned up in the final version any longer.

They want to see what's real.

People want to see you being messy, figuring things out in real time.

And all the while they are along for the ride.

And when you do this, two things happen.

One, you move faster than people who are still obsessing over every single detail and two,

your audience becomes invested in your process since they are watching you build

and they're able to give you feedback along the way.

I find that it's easier online to hit publish

when something is imperfect versus having that mentality in the workplace because if you know that you aren't prepared for something,

if you know that you don't have experience in doing something, it actually can reduce people's confidence if you're telling them,

oh, I don't know what I'm doing.

I remember my very first leadership job

when I had my team who was reporting to me

and they were all older than i was they had more experience than i was

and most of them were men they were not taking little 22 year old natalie very seriously

if i would have told them in that moment

that i didn't know what i was doing it would have reduced my credibility

and i will never forget when i walked into my first set of one -on -ones

and instead of having a structure holding them accountable doing all the things

i needed to do i just sat there

and kind of shot the with them asked them how their week was going

and got to know their family

and we didn't talk about anything related to their roles

or the business now since then i have done thousands of one -on -ones

and i've taken something that i was imperfect at and became better

and better and better to where now i'm very confident in the process

that i use for one -on -ones so

if you want my one -on -one process find me on instagram at natalie dawson

and send me a dm saying one -on -one the moral of

that story is if i didn't show up imperfectly back then

i wouldn't have a polished process today

so it's okay to have things not be perfect but

if you can learn from people who are two steps ahead it will take your lack of perfectionism

and give you an edge so that you gain experience

while not being a complete mess number three is next the market doesn't wait the market moves

so fast so if you take three months to decide

while the people you are competing with are deciding today you're already behind it's a little funny to me

that I'm doing a video about speed.

Because if you would have talked to me five years ago,

I would have thought I was fast at everything until I was around people who did things quickly

and was around people who were incredibly successful.

100

And what I learned from being around people who are incredibly successful, they do not wait for anything.

101

And as soon as they have an idea, they execute on it in that moment.

102

One of my favorite times with my business partner, grant cardone we were thinking about launching this new initiative

103

and we had this whole talk about it over a dinner it was probably an hour

104

and a half long discussion

105

and at the end of the discussion he said great send me a link by tomorrow morning

106

so i can start to promote it i was like send you a link by tomorrow morning

107

so you can promote it it's 8 30 at night how am i supposed to send

108

you a link our team has to build the page

109

we have to set everything up what are you talking about send

110

you a link by tomorrow morning he's like okay that's fine and i didn't think anything of it that night.

111

I went to bed and woke up the next morning

112

and saw he had sent it to his team who had created a full -blown page, already had emails.

113

And this was before ChatGPT existed.

114

He had just bypassed my inability to move quickly because he had a team that could move faster than I could,

115

even though it was supposed to be my initiative.

116

And what this taught me is how do I create a team

117

and create a process that will allow an idea to move fast? Because

118

if you believe in idea it has to move fast

119

that's how you gain momentum is the ability to say

120

i want to do this thing how quickly can i move

121

it into the physical universe it's no longer an idea

122

when there's a landing page and when he promoted it the next morning we found

123

that there were thousands of people who were interested in this idea

124

so what did

125

that do it added more momentum into this process we were more excited about this idea the speed changed everything

126

and today it is one of our most profitable programs

127

that we've ever launched all because we moved quickly

128

so what's lesson here speed to market beats perfection launching a

129

minimal viable product aka a link to a landing page creates momentum

130

and user investment making

131

it nearly impossible for slower perfect competitors to catch up to

132

what you're doing one of my favorite quotes from sean parker the co -founder of napster is move fast

133

and break things unless you're breaking stuff you're not moving fast enough.

134

Remember that clarity comes from action.

135

You will never just think of the perfect plan.

136

You will discover it while you're already moving.

137

Lastly, number four, the today rule.

138

What I like to do to make sure I am always following this rule is to ask myself these two questions daily.

139

What can I launch or test today instead of next week?

140

And the second question is what is the smallest step I could take to get data now?

141

Every day counts.

142

When you think about where you want to go and what your targets are.

143

You don't get multiple days to take off where you're just assuming somebody else is making progress on your goals.

144

So when you think about what you're doing today, I like to use this hack.

145

I have a list of all of my core priorities

146

and I start every morning identifying what I can do that day to move the ball forward, even if the ball isn't in my hand.

147

Now I'm not much of a sports analogy fan because I don't know much about sports.

148

I think of it like a football game.

149

Every down counts.

150

You have to get closer and closer and closer, even if it's only three yards.

151

You might think, oh, three yards doesn't really matter when there's a hundred yards that this ball has to go.

152

The three yards matter.

153

And every day when you wake up, if you are not clear on what you have to do in order to move that project,

154

move that initiative forward, you're going to get lost.

155

And instead of making fast decisions, you're going to be slowed down by the person

156

that you think has the ball

157

when really you need to take the freaking ball over and start making moves down the field.

158

So for me, this looks like in every single meeting, I am clear on who is supposed to do what after the meeting.

159

If the meeting doesn't end where there are clear decision points that have to be executed upon,

160

there are clear notes where people have action items and everybody knows what the next steps are.

161

It was a failed meeting.

162

I just wasted my time.

163

The fastest way to waste your time is to lose control of what you can do today.

164

So going back to the today rule, what can you do today to make forward movement?

165

Today is a day that you have to make forward movement because you don't have the luxury of waiting until tomorrow.

166

If you are not making progress across the most important things of your life,

167

schedule a time for yourself every single morning to review the handful of the core priorities and then ask yourself,

168

what am I doing to move this forward today?

169

Do you have to follow up with somebody?

170

Do you yourself have to take action?

171

Do you need to make an outbound phone call?

172

What is it that you can do today?

173

to make it move forward remember that perfectionism is just procrastination with better branding

174

so today take one action towards something that you've been putting off just

175

because it wasn't perfect and tell me in the comments exactly what you did remember

176

that the faster you move the faster you win

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
