WHY YOU SHOULD ONLY LISTEN TO THE TOP 1%
One of the most powerful mindset shifts you can make in life and business is this: Stop taking advice from people you wouldn’t trade places with.
In a world full of opinions and shortcuts, even from people who want the best for you, your success will often come down to one simple question:
Are you studying and copying the right people?
The top 1% in any industry or field think, act, and move differently. They prioritize differently, they spend their time differently, and they solve problems differently.
If you want uncommon results, you need to start copying uncommon behavior.
Why Does Copying the 1% Work?
Success isn’t random, and it’s not by luck - the people on top more than likely got there through a consistent set of habits, thought patterns, and environments that supported their growth.
When you copy the 1%, whatever area of life that looks like for you, you begin to pick up thought patterns and habits that perhaps you wouldn’t have caught before.
Instead of wasting your time trying to figure everything out from scratch, observe those who are already where you want to be. Their routines, investments, health habits, and the way they think under pressure, all of that is a roadmap to becoming better.
My mentor always says, “Success leaves clues.”
What the 1% Do That Most Don’t
The top 1% separate themselves in everything they do.
They:
Read and apply the knowledge they learn
Invest in mentorship and coaching
Say no more than they say yes
Make decisions and act on them quickly
Guard their time and energy
Surround themselves with other high performers
The good news is that none of these are exclusive - they’re available to anyone willing to pay the price of consistency, commitment, and discomfort.
Before You Make a Decision or Take Someone’s Advice…
Ask yourself:
Would the version of me I want to become do this?
Would the top 1% spend their time here?
Would the top 1% take advice from this person?
Would the top 1% delay action in this moment?
If the answer is no, that’s your sign to move differently.
You Need Higher Standards
The reason most people don’t win in life isn’t because they’re not smart or talented, it’s because they keep modeling average behavior.
Your current habits are perfectly designed to get your current results, and if you want different outcomes, you have to start copying the patterns that produce them.
The real success comes in developing the standards, habits, and decision-making skills of those who already have what you want.
