1
Your brain is keeping you stuck.
2
Not because you're lazy or untalented, but because you're thinking like everyone else.
3
And everyone else is making bad financial decisions.
4
I've spent hundreds of hours around billionaires, and I grew up around people with nothing.
5
The difference between them has nothing to do with luck or intelligence or even work ethic.
6
It's how they think.
7
And the 1% think in a way that completely flips the rules of money to their advantage.
8
So here are the six mental principles the top 1% use to think differently about everything
9
and how you can use them to build real sustainable wealth no matter where you're starting from.
10
When faced with stress, setbacks, or drama, the 1% asks one question that changes everything.
11
You see, every time a deal falls apart or a key person quits, pause and ask yourself, will this even matter in five years?
12
This might seem simple, but it is crazy how 99% of the time the answer is no.
13
And having that perspective is so important because it keeps you focused on what compounds, not what distracts.
14
Recently on a Thursday, I had just wrapped up an entire day of one-on-ones, back-to-back meetings with my team members, and I get a late-night text from one of my team members who says,
15
I need to talk to you.
16
So of course I pick up the phone, give her a call, and she lets me know that one of our
17
favorite team members is resigning and he's no longer gonna be with us after two weeks.
18
And after a day that wasn't the most awesome day, it could have been super easy to be upset, be frustrated, freak out,
19
go into all of this chaos about what it's going to look like for us to have to retrain somebody,
20
much less get over the fact that the person that we really enjoy working with is no longer to work with us.
21
But instead of any of that happening, she and I just had a very calm conversation And I used this framework then, thinking about in five years from now,
22
will I even remember that this bad news took place?
23
Because the reality of the situation is, in five years from now, I'm gonna be really excited about what I'm building, what she's building, and what he's building.
24
And so having these moments of stress and drama and friction, they're never worth it.
25
Because you're not even gonna remember that this situation happened.
26
You're gonna remember how you handled it.
27
And if you are a stressed out person, you will always respond with stress.
28
If you are a calm, confident person who can work through problems, you are gonna always remember that your life was filled with fun, exciting moments and different twists and turns and excitement.
29
You see, most people confuse urgency with importance.
30
Just because something feels urgent doesn't mean it's actually important and that you have to stress out about it.
31
The 1% are able to separate the two by applying a long-term perspective.
32
Now, this doesn't mean that you should ignore all of your problems.
33
They're real problems but you should triage them correctly.
34
So next time something goes wrong, just pause before you react and ask yourself, will this matter in five years?
35
If not, handle it with minimal energy.
36
If it will, then give your full strategic attention to it and solve the problem.
37
So instead of freaking out, we were able to make a game plan
38
and get clear on who would need to replace him in order for the team to continue to thrive.
39
And one thing that I have mastered after having interviewed thousands of people is an interview process.
40
And if you're interested in the process that I've used to hire thousands of people, go to Instagram, check me out at Natalie Dawson
41
and send me a direct message that says interview and I will send my process over to you right now.
42
Now, the next principle is something that goes against what most people think about when getting rich.
43
Don't focus on hard work, focus on patterns.
44
When I kept seeing top performers burning out after hitting their first million dollars in revenue, I realized that this was a pattern problem.
45
Over the last 10 years, I've had the opportunity to study thousands of businesses, and I get to see the difference between business owners who
46
operate a million dollar business versus a $10 million business versus a $50 versus a 50 million dollar business
47
and the majority of businesses never get over this million dollar mark
48
and it made me really look into what is actually happening at this million dollar mark inside any business
49
and what's happening is the business owner isn't able to see
50
that they are the problem and that they are unable to train other people effectively
51
so I stopped having the same conversation over and over
52
because I realized that me solving one business owners problem individually over
53
and over again was actually the same problem that they were running into.
54
So I didn't take the approach of continuing to solve one-off problems
55
and instead I built a system which is in my book called Teamwork
56
which is an end-to-end people framework that teaches founders exactly how to break through the $1 million ceiling.
57
The way I like to look at this is if I have to solve the same problem two or three times, it's not a coincidence.
58
This is a system issue.
59
And the 1% are able to zoom out and see these cycles that keep repeating.
60
Cycles could be people cycles, cash flow cycles, operational cycles.
61
And they use that insight to make smarter and faster processes, smarter and faster systems.
62
Because hard work just makes you busy.
63
But pattern recognition, when you're able to tie a solution to it, allows you to become rich.
64
So look at the last three problems that you've solved and ask yourself are they actually the same problem wearing different masks?
65
If you're solving the same type of issue repeatedly, stop doing that and instead build a system around the problem.
66
Then you can document that system once you have the solution in place and it gets implemented forever.
67
That is how you scale.
68
Principle number three is something that completely changed how I I make decisions.
69
It's called one level up thinking.
70
When my team brings me problems I don't just jump in with answers anymore.
71
I ask myself if I were on the board How would I handle this?
72
What advice would I give?
73
You see this allows me to no longer react
74
Emotionally and forces me to think structurally It also prevents me from jumping in
75
and solving the problem And this is one of the lessons
76
that I actually learned from my husband a handful of years
77
ago ago early on in our business there was a massive fulfillment problem
78
that we were about to run into
79
and it was going to require hundreds of hours of rework on projects
80
that were already midstream that clients were expecting to be delivered
81
and this area of the business was my responsibility
82
but instead of him hopping in to help me solve these
83
problems he refused to get involved he let let me figure out how to solve this problem.
84
Because it was my job to figure this out.
85
It wasn't his job.
86
And that was invaluable to me because it was actually difficult for him to not jump in.
87
It wasn't something that was easy as if he was just giving me work and didn't wanna do it.
88
No, he wanted to solve the problem, but he didn't allow himself to get derailed from what his job was.
89
So when you remove the emotion, you set your team up and the structure up for success.
90
Because if you keep popping in and solving the problem, the team never gets better, the system never gets better.
91
You just keep getting sucked into doing the same thing over and over again.
92
And this is how I went from being an operator to an architect.
93
From doing the work to learning how to design the machine.
94
The 1% constantly zoom out of their current level to think at the next one.
95
And that is how you start acting like a CEO long before you get the title.
96
So next time you face a decision, Pause and ask yourself, how would someone a level above me handle the situation?
97
What would they see that I'm not seeing?
98
What would they prioritize that I might be ignoring?
99
This will instantly upgrade your decision-making.
100
Principle number four might be the hardest one to master, but it is also the most powerful.
101
Emotionless decision-making equals freedom.
102
When I fired my executive vice president, it wasn't emotional.
103
It was math.
104
And the numbers told the story before the drama ever did.
105
You see, when somebody comes into your environment and you actually look at the numbers, you look at whatever it is that that role is supposed to drive,
106
and you see that the numbers before them were growing, maybe like this, or maybe they were at least flat.
107
But when they come into the environment you can actually plot this person joined at this point, and you watch what happens with the graph.
108
And if the graph starts to go like this in a variety
109
If not all of the metrics that
110
that person is responsible for you do not need to use any emotion
111
when firing the person because It's just math and
112
that math is tied to the results that they weren't able to create inside the organization
113
So it can get really emotional and you can use emotion
114
and start pointing fingers
115
and having all sorts of drama around it It is simply can a person in my life Do the job
116
that they're supposed to do and the only way that you know
117
if somebody is doing the job they're supposed to do is if your stats in life get better.
118
And anyone inside your environment where your life gets worse around them means
119
that they are not fulfilling the role that they have in your life.
120
So they have to go.
121
I used to second guess tough calls and take things very personally.
122
But now I treat my emotions like background noise.
123
I can acknowledge them, but I make decisions based off of the data.
124
And that discipline gives me peace and that gives me precision.
125
Because the elite do not make decisions based off of their emotions.
126
They make decisions based off of data-driven bets.
127
They separate their feelings from true facts.
128
Emotions slow down execution, where clarity actually compounds with wealth.
129
So next time you face a tough decision, write down the facts that separate from your feelings.
130
What does the data actually say?
131
What do your emotions say?
132
And separate the two.
133
Make the decision from the data column, not the emotion column.
134
You don't fire somebody because you don't like them.
135
You fire somebody because they can't do the job.
136
And when you start to do this, you'll start making faster and better decisions, and you'll sleep better at night.
137
The next principle is about the one resource you can never get back.
138
Protect your time like it is your capital.
139
I used to feel like I didn't have enough time
140
or energy to do everything that I needed to do until I started saying no to quick calls
141
and things that just added up that ended up costing me two hours of context switching.
142
So by cutting off these little things that I said yes to,
143
I bought back time and energy for the strategy and the team development that is a requirement of my role.
144
I learned this lesson very early on in college.
145
You see, one of my close friends was always busy.
146
She said yes to every person who wanted to get coffee with her, grab lunch, go out to dinner.
147
She was very popular but incredibly stressed, and she was never able to spend time on her grades.
148
Whereas I rarely said yes to people.
149
I liked to do my own thing, I had a very small group of friends, and I wanted to get my work done.
150
So by the end of the semester, even though she looked like she was busy and she felt like she was busy, she didn't actually get the results that she wanted.
151
The acquaintances that she was saying yes to weren't actually helping her get closer to her goals, And she wasn't doing very well in school.
152
Whereas I still did feel like I was busy, but I was busy focused on getting the grades
153
that I wanted to get and spending time with just a handful of people who I loved being around.
154
And this lesson really taught me that you can say yes to a million things
155
and everybody's going to feel like they're busy.
156
But if you're not saying yes to the right things
157
and to the things that are getting you closer to where you want to go, it's wasted time.
158
And I've pulled this lesson forward to where today, my calendar gets audited like it's a financial statement.
159
If it doesn't create leverage or generate momentum, it's not getting scheduled.
160
That one shift made me more effective than any other productivity hack ever could.
161
Because average people trade time for money.
162
The elite treat time as capital, as an asset that can compound or can be wasted.
163
And they audit their calendar as if it's a profit and loss statement.
164
They cut low-yield activities, outsource anything that creates friction, and reinvest hours into high-return thinking and relationships.
165
They don't manage time.
166
They allocate their time like they're an investor.
167
So this week, audit your calendar like it's a financial statement.
168
For every meeting or every appointment that you have, ask, what is the return on this investment for this hour?
169
Cancel, delegate, or shorten anything that doesn't create true value.
170
And then reinvest that time into high-return activities, strategy, relationship building, skill building.
171
Your calendar today is actually your future, so allocate it like your goals depend on it.
172
The last principle is one that most people ignore, but it might be the most important.
173
You see, a curated environment equals curated thinking.
174
I used to think that I could be successful despite my environment.
175
It didn't matter that my house was a mess or
176
that I had friends who were a little unaccountable or
177
that I had a bunch of unfinished cycles because I wanted to go change the world.
178
And what I realized is if I couldn't get control of my own environment, meaning the type of food that I eat, how I move my body every single day,
179
the friends that I hang out with, the problems that I'm solving.
180
If I can't handle me
181
and my environment how am I gonna be able to impact other people
182
because why should they listen to me about me helping change their environment
183
when I can't even get control and change my environment.
184
So when I started to look at this I really had to take a honest look at my environment.
185
What were the state of my possessions?
186
Were things banged up, messy, dirty?
187
Or were they organized and neat?
188
And was there order in place?
189
When it came to my relationships, were those people doing well?
190
Were they having wins in life?
191
Were they successful?
192
Or were they struggling and dealing with a whole bunch of problems
193
and a whole bunch of issues that were then being placed on me?
194
Was my income actually growing?
195
Or was it staying stagnant?
196
And what I found when I really looked at my income is I was so focused on solving other people's problems
197
that I never took the time to solve problems that I cared about, that I could control, and I just wasted my time solving everybody else's problems.
198
And so your environment and curating your environment has to be the first step in order to ever become elite at anything.
199
If your environment doesn't challenge your operating system, you will end up defending mediocrity instead of truly evolving.
200
And today, I am ruthless about curating who I'm around because I know it will directly shape how I think.
201
I just actually watched this with my husband recently.
202
We are no longer spending time with a particular individual and my husband is five times happier than he used to be.
203
He is happier in the mornings, he is happier at dinner, he is happier throughout the day and will send me random text messages.
204
And I can trace it back to the fact
205
that this one person who is in his ear is no longer in his ear.
206
That is the power of the people who you spend time around.
207
And the 1% know this.
208
So they only spend time around people who stretch their standards, who challenge their thinking, and ultimately who sharpen their worldview.
209
This is how they keep moving forward.
210
So look at the five people that you spend the most amount of time with.
211
Are they truly stretching your thinking?
212
Or are they reinforcing your limitations?
213
If your environment isn't challenging you, just change it.
214
You can join communities, masterminds, or groups where you are the least successful person in the room.
215
That discomfort is growth.
216
Your thinking will never outpace your environment.
217
So curate it like your future depends on it.
218
If you act on these six principles, you will think differently from 99% of people.
219
And that is how wealth is built.
220
If you like this video and want to learn how to communicate like the 1%
221
so that people actually listen when you speak, watch that video next.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
