Embark on 7 Learning Adventures to Create a Business From Scratch.
This book includes research on " who " is most likely to be successful in entrepreneurship across 26 different personality factors.
Would you like to join the special few who don't exchange time for money? The special few who have products and businesses paying for their dream life?

No hype. No BS. No fluff. This is a comprehensive book full of examples to draw from. Start From Zero gives you the repeatable path to create a meaningful and profitable business without being dependent on any person, any platform, or anything.

See new research on the top personality traits pulled from 30 successful entrepreneurs. Learn by example from 15 employees who became entrepreneurs.

There is a big difference between you and those who are free.

The brain they have, and the brain you don't.

This book is on how to build that brain, fast.

Much of the world believes you have to be smart, gifted, or lucky to make it with your own business.

That's only true to a certain extent. You can actually screw up a lot and still get rich... if you get the right things done right.

This is the only book that will show you how to successfully start from zero when you have nothing.

Not even confidence.

Start From Zero is the result of over 10 years of research, based on tested principles, with a methodology that will still be relevant a hundred years from now.

If you are frustrated with your income and earning potential, this book is for you.

Start From Zero teaches you how to install the 4 brains you need to create income & scalable products from scratch.

Whether you are a frustrated employee, a time-strapped business owner, or a curious 16 year old wondering if you should attend college, Start From Zero delivers the goods.

My hope is this book helps make entrepreneurship accessible to the entire world.

I have personally helped thousands of people become free with this exact process.

All of them started from zero. Many of them started as employees.

You can be next.

Put these principles into practice for 90 days and learn the skills to make success more likely in any endeavor you choose!

Adventure 1:
The Three Little Rocks

You are about to embark on the journey of a lifetime! It will be quite an adventure. Before you go on your voyage, I want to give you three little rocks to put in your pocket. Use these rocks and symbols as reminders or keepsakes.

Keep them in your pocket so they are always with you. Do not forget them.

Little Rock Number 1

The Daily Question for Getting Rich & Staying That Way Forever

If you’d like to protect your financial future, get rich, become free, and always be financially safe, then this is the most important question you’ll ever need to ask. You can ask it at the end of each day before you lay down for bed. You must answer yes to this question, or you are at risk.

That question is: Did I build any equity today?

For many of us, when we step back from our day and reflect, we will see that we have not built any equity with our actions. We will see we have exchanged time for money. We will see we have spent our most valuable resource of time, for something that is so readily exchangeable.

Money.

I truly don’t get why a human heart would want to trade their most valuable resource so easily without building equity. Money isn’t everything. That’s why you shouldn’t spend your most valuable resource to get it.

Every day that you wake up to work, you must be building equity or building towards having equity.

What is equity? Put simply, equity is ownership in something that can produce cash or be sold without your direct time on a day-to-day basis. Having equity is having an asset that provides for you and your family.

It is not that hard to build equity.

Think about this. Most of us have spent 10-plus years learning how to be an employee. If you spent even one year learning how to build equity, you’d know how to do it. It’s not hard; it is simply a matter of training.

It’s a matter of building a different brain. It’s a matter of learnable skills. You can learn these skills. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

Think about the difference between building equity each day and not building equity and how that difference would affect your life. The compound effect of building equity every day is the key to security. That’s why the rich keep getting richer.

My business friends and I build equity every day. You can join us. This book will show you how to build equity every single day for the rest of your life.

Little Rock Number 2

The Cardinal Rule of Successful Entrepreneurship

Before we begin, you must—and I mean, must—understand the most critical rule of wildly successful entrepreneurship. Break this rule and screw yourself. Follow this rule and become wildly rich.

I’ve met entrepreneurs who earn over ten million per year become proud and break this rule, only to get hammered for it.

This rule may seem foreign at first, but this rule eliminates all of my fear around making money. You will understand it by the end of this book. And you’ll be richly rewarded for it.

Here is the rule: We do not get to decide what works.

That’s.

It.

When you realize that all you have to do is listen, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do this years ago.

If everything crumbled to the ground, I would not fear because I would simply go out into the world and listen deeply to the pulse of what works and create wealth around that, trusting that something would emerge. Too many force their own ideas on markets or people only to become frustrated, fail, and give up.

Blaming others. Like idiots. Ignoring this rule.

Wealth and freedom as taught in this book are not about guessing what works or coming up with an idea like Facebook or Craigslist. Or Facebook meets Craigslist.

It is about listening.

This sounds simple, but it’s rather difficult. As you read the pages of this book, you’ll start to understand this rule. And if you ever find yourself trying to be smarter than this rule, or smarter than the people you are serving, swallow your pride, open your heart again, and listen.

I still forget this rule. I think we all do from time to time. If you ever catch me trying to be smarter than you, you have my permission to shout, “S-Y-P.”

Swallow.

Your.

Pride.

Then I’ll remember to open my heart again and start listening.

Little Rock Number 3

Handle the Jealousy Trap With Open-Hearted Curiosity

If you are jealous, you are screwed. It’s a low-vibration experience that shuts off all creativity.

All.

Creativity.

Have you ever felt jealous of someone else, someone’s product, or their business? Be...
