Life is good.

I'm in Vietnam right now.

Sitting in my underwear.
In my AirBnB.

Making $20k/mth online.
Doing what I love.

6 months ago?

I had no personal brand.
I had no dream clients.
I had no clue.

All I knew is that I had to post everyday.

And that I did.

If you've followed me from day 1.

You've seen this unfold in front of you.

In real time.

This is the 9-step process I took:

1. Pick a broad niche.
2. Write about what you know.
3. Write about what you've learnt.
4. Write about where you want to go.
5. Create products that combine 2,3,4.
6. Give that product to your community.
7. Help them achieve what you achieved.
8. Gather feedback and keep on improving.
9. Then niche down to solve deeper problems.

What matters most?

Leaving ego out of the equation.

Keep creating.
Keep posting.
Keep going.

You're entire life can change in the next 6 months.

Most don't know that I used to be an addict:

• P*rn
• Dr*gs
• Games
• Partying
• Drinking
• Self-harm 

And at 21 I was on the verge of ending it all. 

But amidst the darkness.

Just moments before I went all the way...

A golden voice came to me and said.

"If you're going to exit this game of life...

Why not see how far you can go?" 

• Call it the universe.
• Call it the future.
• Call it god. 

But that one sentence change my life. 

And that was the moment I decided to evolve. 

• I fixed my health.
• I elevated my mindset 
• I earnt more money than I dreamed of. 

By 27 I gained freedom in all areas of my life. 

Building my brand was always about one thing:

Bringing freedom to you.

Right now it so happens that becoming a One-Man Brand & Business is your best bet. 

This is why I'm paving the way for you.

So my success is your success. 

But along that journey to freedom...

I discovered 9 key ideas that helped me reach it faster. 

So here they are for you too ✨ 

P.S. Which is your favourite? Let me know! 😄

9 Key Life Lessons You Need To Know...

When I first started posting on LinkedIn I heard crickets...

Kept posting and still nothing.

Then I got 1 like and I was over the moon.

Then 3 likes and I was over the moon again.

Then 10.
Then 50.
Then 100.

Then 15, and I felt crushed.

It was then I realised...

I lost sight of what was truly important.
The reason "why" I was posting in the first place.

These likes weren't just numbers to measure "growth".
They were real people whose lives I positively affected.

People who...

→ Look to me for guidance and inspiration.
→ I've developed real relationships with.
→ I'm paving the way forward for.

Now imagine you're in a town square in real life...

10 likes?

That's 10 people who are cheering you on.

100 likes?

That's an entire crowd of people that are going crazy for you.

1000 likes?

That's the entire town that thinks you're an absolute rock star.

People who are better off in their lives...

Because of YOU and your daily content.

So remember...

You're making an impact.
You're changing people's lives.
You're helping people be their best.

And...

Keep going.
Keep posting.
Keep providing value.

You're doing great.

Im quitting LinkedIn...

I'm done. 

I've said to to myself 7 times in the last 7 months.

The first were about fear of failure.
The next were about self-sabotage.
The last were about fear of success.

The urge to quit suddenly appeared.

But guess what?

I kept going.

And every time I did?

I reached a whole new level.

The first led to my first viral posts.
The next led to my first viral course.
The last led to my first 7-9 figure clients.

Every single time I wanted to quit.

But didn't?

I succeeded greater than ever before.

So if you're feeling the same?

Keep going.

Everything good is on the other side.

Let's make LinkedIn easy for everyone 🙌 

Here's my 9-step LinkedIn Masterclass:

𝟭) 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲 = 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗻𝘁 

Your profile needs to:

• Look high quality
• Have clear value
• Provide solutions

𝟮) 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗖𝗧𝗔𝘀

• Add in a URL with a clear CTA
• Always use "Featured" sections

𝟯) 𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘀

• Give away everything you know 
• Overdeliver on value per post

𝟰) 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘆

• Old posts keep getting views today
• The more you post, the more you reach

𝟱) 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘆

• The more you comment, the more you get seen
• The more you get seen, the more you grow

𝟲) 𝗗𝗠 𝗗𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘆

• Give free value to anyone that asks for it in DMs
• Do this everyday and see them become clients

𝟳) 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱

• Always do what's working on the platform 
• Then add in your own flavour to it to make it yours

𝟴) 𝗢𝘄𝗻 𝗔 𝗧𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗰

• Become the "go-to" person by owning a topic
• Talk about that topic 1000 times to be an authority

𝟵) 𝗕𝗲 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰

• Show up as who you are
• Embrace your failures
• Share your wins

That's it 💚

If there's one thing you do today, read this 💚

"OMG I can't be bothered writing on LinkedIn"...

Is this you?

Do you see LI as this "annoying" thing to do...

A thing that HAS to be done to get "reach"?

If the answer is yes...

Instead, try to think of it like this:

"#LinkedIn is my diary"

1) Use it to document what you learnt that day.

↳ How you feel about it.
↳ What to do next.

2) Use it to share your thoughts with the world.

↳ Why you think that way.
↳ Why we should too.

3) Use it as a point in time you can look back on.

↳ To see how far you've come since.
↳ And how much you've grown.

When you start to see it as a dairy?

It becomes much less stressful.
It becomes so much more fun.
It becomes a daily habit.

So...

Stop worrying.
Start posting.

Future you will thank you for it.

Mad Men is my favourite show of all time. 

Because...

It follows the journey of Don Draper. 

A man who fakes his entire identity. 
Because he was ashamed of his childhood. 

That leads to self-destructive behaviour like:

• Excessive drinking
• Addiction to women
• Avoidant attachment

He branded himself as this suave successful man. 
But deep down inside he was depressed. 

You often see him burnout and unhappy. 
Because of his own actions and trauma. 

The show reveals his journey from this darkness...
All the way to letting go and acceptance. 

In the last moments of the show...

You finally see him:

• Whole 
• Happy 
• At peace

___

This show is my favourite as I too have gone through: 

• Trauma
• Addiction
• Depression

Always presenting a false persona of confidence. 

(This ironically made me great at branding, in the same way it did for Don. Having healed, I now use that skill for good and show up authentically as me without compromise.) 

But I had to hit rock bottom at 21 to realise that...

My happiness was up to me. 

And that burnout?

It was a symptom of my own actions. 
It was a symptom of my masking. 
It was a symptom of my pain. 

These 5 strategies below helped me overcome it.

I hope they help you too.

9 days ago my beloved cat Yomii passed away.

(this one’s going to be raw…)

She came into my life 12 years ago when my sister brought her home wrapped up in a little blanket.

Frightened and afraid of this new place, her eyes anxiously darted around the room.

We gave her a bath and took care of her fleas, then gave her space to roam the house.

Her little paws.
Her playful tail.
Her big round eyes.

All soon came alive.

When she was tired, she curled up into a little ball on our laps and drifted off into sleep.

When she was hungry, she’d meow and brush up against us with love & cuteness.

When she was feeling bored she’d nag us to play with feathers on a string.

Then, when she got older, she wanted to explore the unknown.

Any chance she had she escaped the house and roamed the neighbourhood.

Her natural instincts started to blossom...

She brought back lizards and birds as presents (most survived).

She made friends with other cats and often stayed out for hours.

She made enemies and fought them, coming back with bruises.

She was living her best life.

But one day she left for 3 days straight.

We were worried sick.

After hours of calling her name and hours of walking around the neighbourhood.

She finally came back.

But something had changed.

She started to hole up in dark spaces.
She started to lose weight.
She started to eat less.

Then her left eye began to droop.

The vet eventually told us the bad news.

“She has a tumour”.

We were full of guilt.

If only we had given her more attention.
If only we had checked sooner.
If only, if only…

For me?

I felt like I had abandoned her when she needed me.
Because I was so focused on my own life.

And now?

I can never turn back the time.

All I could do was feed her and love her as she slowly decayed.

But all the medicine did was delay the inevitable.

And after many many months of staying strong…

It was time.

And last week the vet came and helped her pass onto the next life.

No more pain.
No more suffering.

Only peace.

I cried more times in my life than ever before.

When people say “it’s just a cat” they have no idea what it means to truly love.

And love her we did.

If you’ve gone through loss.
If you’ve gone through judgement.

Know that it’s okay.

What matters most is…

How YOU feel.
How YOU grieve.
How YOU process.

Because our pets are family.
Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

All that matters now is that she forever lives in my heart.

And I know that one day...

I’ll see her again.

I'll See You Again...

Build your work around your life. 
Don't build your life around your work.

When I worked a 9-5, this was my day:

- Wake up at 6AM
- Take a shower, get ready
- 90 minute commute at 7AM
- Arrive and work nonstop 9 to 5
- 90 minute commute back at 5PM
- Gym/exercise, then a shower to relax
- Dinner, then watch TV to numb the pain

Work: 8.5 hours
Commute: 3 hours
Life: 1.5 hours

With a Personal Brand, this is my schedule:

- Wake up at 7AM
- Do yoga and walk
- Read on my Kindle
- 45 minutes on LinkedIn
- Create content at the cafe
- Take zero meetings. All async
- Eat lunch while watching shows
- Explore the new country that I'm in

Work time: 5 hours
Commute time: 0 hours
Life: 8 hours

This is how everyone can live.

Forget work-life balance. 

Your life should always come first.
