00:00This is exactly how I would go from working a nine-to-five job to becoming an independent

00:04entrepreneur, making a million dollars within the next year. You see, I went from earning

00:09$55,000 a year in a job that I hated to having a net worth of over $100 million. And let me tell

00:15you, I made so many mistakes. But if I could go back and do it all over again, this is how I would

00:21do it even faster and better. So here are my 10 tips to go from being a nine-to-five team member

00:26to thinking, acting, and earning like a millionaire. Your first step to becoming a millionaire is

00:31identifying your millionaire skill. Think about it. What does a millionaire know that you don't

00:36know? So this is what I would do. I would go to Google. Google is my best friend. I actually have

00:41a hashtag with a sticker that a team member gave me that says, Google that shit, because I say this

00:45so often. So you're going to Google occupations of millionaires, and you're going to come up with a

00:50list. There's going to be things like engineer, lawyer, entrepreneur, real estate agent, and a

00:56whole bunch of other things where people are actually making a million dollars a year. And

00:59if you put this on a grid where you listed out all of the opportunities, and then you listed your

01:03interest level on a scale of one to five in that career field, you're going to have a better

01:09understanding of if you're interested in this thing. Now, the next column to look at is, do you

01:13already have knowledge in this area? So you take all of your businesses, you look at where you're

01:18interested in, you look at what your skill set is, so you identify which of these occupations you are

01:23going to choose to become a millionaire in. So when I was deciding what path I wanted to take

01:27in order to become a millionaire, what I realized is I'm not great at math, and I didn't want to go

01:32back to school to have to get some degree that was going to prolong the path for me to actually make

01:37the money that I wanted to make. So I decided to become an entrepreneur. I decided to launch a

01:41business. This was the fastest and easiest path for me based on my interest and my existing level of

01:47knowledge and skills. You have to decide what that is for you. Pick one that you are at least

01:52interested in and are willing to commit to figure out how do you become great, millionaire great,

01:57at that particular occupation. So now your second step is to stop hanging out with your broke friends.

02:02You will never become a millionaire if you cannot cut broke people out of your life. I remember when

02:07I had this epiphany that I was going to create this business six years ago. I started telling my

02:12friends at the time about it, and I thought that I was going to be met with excitement, with questions,

02:17with just some level of support, to be honest with you. And instead of any of that, my friends

02:23made fun of me, asked kind of condescending questions. And what was more hurtful than the

02:29condescending questions was the way that they would just ignore this new thing that I was doing that I

02:34was excited about. They would continue to talk about old bullshit, all of the old stories, things that

02:40were happening in their life that might not honestly be that interesting or that different. And here I was

02:44putting all of this time into becoming this next version of myself. I was learning new things. I

02:48was staying up late. I was meeting new people to create a new life for myself that I was so excited

02:53about. And they couldn't have been any less interested. Your energy is finite. Your broke

02:58friends, if they're not interested in hearing about your goals and they aren't excited about supporting

03:02you, they're going to invalidate you, which might actually cause you to give up in the process.

03:07That's not what you're here to do. You're here to actually learn the steps to make it easy on

03:10yourself. And the fastest way to make this easy on you is to get rid of friends who are going to hold

03:16you back in the process. Now that you've removed your broke friends from your life, you have to

03:20replace them with rich teachers. So think of whoever your idol is. For me, this was Elena Cardone. I

03:27wanted to be interesting enough. I wanted to be valuable enough that she would want to hang out with

03:32me. And what I realized is Elena would not be hanging out with Natalie in present state. So what does

03:37Natalie in present state need to start doing so that if I get the opportunity to be in Elena's

03:42presence, she is interested in having a conversation with me. And let me tell you, this advice is only

03:47for people who are really willing to be honest with themselves. Because some people might lie to

03:51themselves and think, well, there's no reason that Elon Musk wouldn't want to hang out with me or

03:55Grant Cardone wouldn't want to hang out with me. But if you haven't done anything great, if you

03:59haven't created anything great, why would they want to spend time with you? And that's a hard pill to

04:03swallow. However, once you swallow it, then you can get into action. The most practical tip I

04:07can give you is to identify the 10 most successful people in the specific field that you decide that

04:13you want to pursue or you want to become a millionaire in and you study them. So I chose

04:18the Cardone specifically to study because they had the stats. They were a power couple. They already had

04:23a billion dollar net worth, which was my target, and they worked together. Those criteria change

04:29everything for me. So this brings me to step number four, which is stop wasting your time. Time is your

04:34most important asset. Your ability to study, to learn, to educate yourself on mornings, evenings,

04:43weekends, in the shower, driving. You use those opportunities to build the skillset that you are

04:49learning from the best of the best. For me, that was a combination of podcasts, YouTube videos,

04:54and books. I studied every waking minute so that I could get the education. Because if you just

04:59believed that somebody knew something more than you, and that's all you had to do is learn from them

05:03what they know that you don't know, that's the hack. But most people study from the wrong people.

05:08They don't set the target to begin with. They don't even think that they could become a millionaire.

05:12So all of this work just goes to waste. And then they waste their time. They waste their time with

05:17Netflix. They waste their time scrolling endlessly on social media. You see, if you want to be a

05:22millionaire, you should only be following millionaires on social media. You have to stop wasting

05:26your time on things that aren't allowing you to gain competency. If you really want to be a

05:32millionaire in your chosen field, you have to be an expert. You have to be fully competent

05:37and understand the terms, the definitions, the players, how the game works. You have to be a

05:44student of the game that you're choosing to play. Step five is probably the hardest for most people to

05:49accept, and it is to go into debt. Which translates to, you have to be willing to invest. Once you invest

05:56and you realize that the money that you have is a tool to get you to where you want to go,

06:03instead of something that you save and you afford, all of a sudden opportunities open up. Because when

06:09you invest, you can get in the rooms with people who have done what you are trying to do. But without

06:16investing and potentially having to go into debt, you are just stuck in your house, in your car, doing

06:22what you've always done, being in the same environment you've always been in. And you never

06:25have to force yourself to become the type of person who can be in a different room. But it feels

06:30uncomfortable because nobody wants to invest before they know how to make money. But in order to make

06:34money, you have to invest. Grant Cardone has my favorite quote on this. He says, if you don't invest

06:39time and money, you will never have time and money. So for instance, a $10,000 investment in a

06:45mastermind is not what's going to make you broke. What's actually making you broke is the fact that you

06:50don't have the knowledge that is inside that $10,000 mastermind. You see, you need to understand

06:55what those teachings are. And without having access, how are you going to learn those things?

07:00You see, the first time that I invested in myself, it was a marketing course for $4,000. I did not have

07:05the $4,000 to be able to invest in this marketing course. But I recognized that I needed to get myself

07:10out there. I needed to get myself known. And the way that you do that is through promotion and through

07:15marketing. So I was at an event. It was a women's event. I was all jazzed up. I was excited. I was like,

07:20yeah, these speakers are amazing. They just were like lighting me up. I was like, what would it be

07:25like if I could be up on that stage with them one day? I deserve to be up on that stage with them

07:29one day. I'm not at that point right now, but that's what I want. So at the end of the event,

07:34they made an offer for a $4,000 marketing course. And I panicked. It's like, oh my gosh, $4,000 is so

07:41much money. And what if I don't make that money back? What if I could learn all this stuff online? And

07:45then it was just a waste of money. And then I feel silly. And all of this self-doubt just started to creep in

07:49as soon as they started talking about $4,000, which was a number that I was uncomfortable with.

07:53But I made the investment. I just did it. I was like, I'm going all in because it's going to force

07:57me to become a different version of myself. And I am unwilling in one year from now to be the same

08:01person that I am today. Step six is simply to get yourself in the room. To go from zero to a

08:08millionaire, you need to get into the rooms with people who could actually help you. If you don't get

08:13into the rooms, you're not going to become that person. I have attended so many conferences

08:17where I use them as an opportunity to say, Natalie, in three months from now, when you

08:22attend this event, you're going to have completed XYZ project so that you can talk about this because

08:28you know that these types of people are going to be there. And you have to prepare yourself

08:31because right now you're lame. Right now you don't have anything to offer anybody. It's just

08:35the reality. But you are going to have something to offer somebody because in three months from

08:39now, you have a target and you can create something in three months from now. You can create a

08:43landing page. You can create an offer. You can make movement if you know that you've committed

08:48yourself to be in a place in the future. So you become somebody in the process of attending that

08:54event that is valuable to the people that you know are going to be there. But you are never going to

08:58take the steps that are required if you don't actually commit to getting in the room. This is why

09:02for those 10 people that you are studying, find rooms that they are going to be in and invest your

09:08money to get in that room so that when you show up, you are forcing yourself to become the type of

09:13person that they would want to spend time with. You get in the proximity to people who are making

09:18a million dollars. And when you are in proximity, you freaking impress the hell out of them.

09:22The next step is to find out who is going to be in this room and research the hell out of them.

09:27My motto is become the ultimate stalker, but the good kind of stalker. The stalker who is informed.

09:33The stalker who does their research and isn't creepy and weird. Don't be that kind of stalker.

09:38But the person that actually shows up and has looked up people ahead of time knows who their

09:43targets are. Because when you go to an event, the target is not meeting every single person.

09:47That would be an unsuccessful action. The target is finding the handful. Remember this is always a

09:53handful. You are trying to find a handful of people who can help you get to where you are trying

09:58to go. So when you look at the event ahead of time, how can you find out who is going to be in the

10:03room? Do they have a WhatsApp group? Do they have a Facebook group? How are people inside this

10:07community connecting? What's cool about living in today's day and age is that when you go to an

10:12event like this, they are likely trying to build a community, which means that they have some sort

10:17of a community already existing ahead of time. So do your freaking research. This is what millionaires

10:23do. They always go into rooms totally prepared. Your next step to acting and earning like a millionaire

10:30is learning how to sell. Because you see the richest, most successful people, you know,

10:35they all know how to sell. Making money is a game comprised of knowing how to sell. Every single day,

10:41you're going to have to sell yourself, sell your customers and sell your future team members on who

10:46you are, what you do and why anybody should care. So regardless of if you want to be an engineer,

10:52a lawyer, an entrepreneur, a real estate agent, you have to learn how to sell. So I strongly recommend

10:58that you are learning the skill that you decided that you were going to become a millionaire in

11:02while concurrently learning how to sell because sales will follow you throughout your millionaire

11:08process. The best person to teach on sales is Grant Cardone. He changed my life when I read the book

11:14Sell or Be Sold because it teaches you how to get sold on yourself first so that then you have confidence

11:19in selling other people on you. But if you aren't sold on you first, you're going to have a lot of

11:24challenges selling other people because you're going to feel a little bit like a fraud. And to

11:28me, that is the misconception in sales is that it's braggy or that you have to be stumping somebody

11:33or giving them something that they don't want. It's about listening to somebody. It's about

11:37understanding their problems. And it's about you offering effective solutions to move them away from

11:43their problems. At this point, you've picked a niche. You've made new friends. You've invested time

11:48and money learning and getting into the room. And you've learned how to sell. Now it's time to start

11:53making money, but we need to be crystal clear on our goals, which is why step nine is to set your

11:59millionaire metrics. You will never be a millionaire if you don't have millionaire metrics. The coolest

12:05thing about becoming a millionaire is that it is literally just math. If you made $2,740 a day,

12:11you would be a millionaire. So whatever it is that you are selling, you have to do the math backwards to

12:16understand how many of those units, how many of those products, how many of those services you would

12:20need to sell in order to generate a million dollars. But once you understand how many units you have to

12:25sell, you do have to break it down per day so that every single day, you know what your goals are in

12:30order to hit your million dollar targets. You have to get clear on your target and what you need to be

12:35doing each and every day. Because as you come into challenges and roadblocks, that's okay. It is quite

12:41literally part of the process. But if you give up on the way because you become unenthused or uninspired,

12:47or you're not even looking at your targets any longer, then you're never going to get there.

12:51Knowing that you're going to come into obstacles, it's just part of the game. The final step to

12:55thinking, acting, and earning like a millionaire is to remind yourself every day that you are still

13:00broke. You should remind yourself every single day that you are broke. Now you might be thinking,

13:06Natalie, I already know that I'm broke. I don't need to be reminded every day. Yes, you do. You have to

13:12be reminded not only that you're broke today, but more importantly, what it is that you are working

13:17so hard for so that you don't give up in the process. So my process is I look at my vision

13:23board. I look at my bank account. I look at my vision board. I look at my bank account. I go back

13:28and forth because my reality doesn't meet my potential yet. Your reality today, where you are,

13:35your circumstances, they don't meet what your potential is. Your potential is so much greater than what

13:40you've already created, but you have to have this vision of where you're going and have a real strong

13:45conviction that you can actually become a millionaire. You can actually have what other

13:49people are able to have. You just have to learn very specific things that you don't know now in

13:53order to get there. When you simplify it and start thinking about it in that way, you actually can

13:58create your dream life. And speaking of creating your dream life, if you want to know my process for
