I’m 44 years old and I’ve collected 44 cheat codes I wish I knew at 24.

I want you to have them so it doesn’t take you as long to figure out.

When I started my entrepreneurial journey at 17, I looked at people miles ahead of me and felt like I’d never be able to get there.

Even after I sold my first company and became a millionaire, I was comparing again.

Most people fall into this trap.

Thinking you should be further along.

Questioning why you haven’t done it yet if they did it.

But we often overlook the years of hard work, failures, and cheat codes they collected over their life.

The truth is…

Everyone you admire started at the beginning.

They’ve probably just been using a few of these cheat codes longer than you.

And I would have been here faster if I learned these when I was 24.

So stop comparing, grab the cheat codes, and embed them in your life.

    Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future.., I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life!

    I love how composed, clean, consistent and healthy you come across. Keep being yourself. Your presence carries a weight. I needed to hear all this. Thank you. I’m only 5 minutes in. I’m subscribed.

    I'm about a decade older than you Dan and have been an entrepreneur since I was in junior high. This video resonates big time. It is very close to something I would have put out. Having lived through everything you shared the value knowledge bombs were great! I went though over a decade in my life with debilitating symptoms that dozens of doctors couldn't figure out. So I went out and sought people who were healing themselves from mysterious illnesses and learned from them. I learned a lot of hard lessons through years of pain and being bedbound. It's amazing how pain can be a great motivator as it almost forced me to be open to trying new things that I wouldn't have otherwise. Your lessons are pure gold and watching them shared in such a manner only reaffirms that I am on the right path of regaining my life again. 😊🙌🙏🏻
  • @RVWedding
    Thanks Dan. Love your vids...keep them coming. Appreciate all the info sharing and applicable to my phase in life. It resonates with me. I truly value this cheat code vid, some of which I apply today and other cheat codes are great opportunities to tackle today. Spreading all good positive vibes!
  • Dan, your book is the most exciting book I've read this year. I also know what it's like to grow up with troubles and I owned a business at 27 that blew up after 5 years because of every single mistake you talk about in your book. I was paying people tons of money to grow my business while I was cleaning bathrooms and stocking shelves. Absolute horse pocky nonsense. I started another business a year ago and I'm working on creating my perfect week right now which has already helped me hit flow faster. I am determined to do it right and buy back my time this time around. Never stop being you because your information helps people. And if some say you're stuck up or judgmental, good. It simply means you have a better standard for your life. Thank you 🙏
  • @AndyNunes
    The amount of value packed into this short video is incredible 🔥 Worth taking notes. Thank you for creating high value content like this!
  • Dan, your book is the first self development/business book that I've started that I have a hard time putting down! Love the point on when you're unhealthy, you only have 1 goal, but when you're healthy, you can have 100. That was a punch right between the eyes that I needed.
