My early entrepreneurship efforts: a crash course in failure...

My first:

•Product: Flop
•Tweets: sucked
•Podcast: unusable
•Newsletter: Bombed
•Training: 0 attendees
•Email sequence: 0 sales

Last 10 days:

•6-figure inbound lead
•3 huge guests: booked

Keep going!

What's the secret weapon behind every 7-figure creator?

@_KevinConnelly Great form. I should mix in more KB’s… have not tried a double inn forever.

If I had a dollar for every DM:

“Hey Mike, I made a free DM tool,…”

I’d have enough to buy their automation company.

“Can I steal 2 seconds of your time?”

Buddy, you already did. 🤣

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@_KevinConnelly There was a crypto coin/market built on this concept 5 years back… super fun.

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@TheSebasHidalgo Great mindset. Such a privilege…

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@ChrisWillx Legend. Appreciate you and all you bring to the world.

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@glennwrites1 I have been using a tea tree and rosemary combo for months…

It’s done nothing. 🤣🤣

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@ChrisWillx Love the new Richard Reeves ep!! Question for you when you hit 3M: If you had to pull together a dream lineup for “The Institute of Bro Science”’s inaugral Conference, who are your top 5-8 picks?

Sales Calls used to terrify me...

I read 1/2 a book on NLP

(Neuro-Linguistic Programming) ...

And started associating calls with peak experiences...

(In my case - two recent epic trips).

I just got off the one of the best calls of my life...

Not a coincidence.

@teddy_cahill I’m psyched!! Crazy thing: these two might be the 4th/5th beat players on the squad next year. Word is

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@cbwritescopy Next level niche-ing…

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@careersherpa I haven’t had too - because I’ve found just about everything I’ve been curious about. That said: it totally does take more reading - so knowing when to use it is something I haven’t fully mastered yet.

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@SalcedoBryant You both look awesome. Much love my man!

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@MitchellKeller_ This is some true Jedi shit...

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@dillonwithlife Well said, Jeff. I laugh when I see they’re rated at #3 - they have an 8+ man roster who will have professional careers (including NBA-ers). They’re legit deeper than last year…

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@MitchellKeller_ Brother!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏. Proud of you homie!!

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@noahkagan Congrats, dude!!!

I’d say lean in, enjoy it, trust your instincts, and ignore anyone who tries to fill your head with downside or negativity…

Being a parent is awesome…

Enjoy!

[Mike O'Connor @oconnormk]

@ThomasMeleek Commit my man! You look great in blue!!
