The psychology of control... and money
|
I'm sure you’ve been told this story before. But I don’t care. You need to hear it every day. A North Korean fisherman got distracted in the fog and drifted too close to the South Korean coast. How could he know that? Well… He realized it when his radio picked up a station he didn’t recognize… and… and… They were telling a joke! Yes, a joke. ​ The fisherman laughed. ​ ​ He went back home. ​ But that joke kept bouncing around in his head — after all, it was his only experience with the outside world. ​ ​ That’s not the joke, you blockhead!! Can’t you see that nothing you’ve been told in your country makes the slightest bit of sense? ​ We know this story because the man ended up defecting to South Korea. ​ And, do you know what he said pushed him to do it? ​ Yes. That’s it. The joke he heard by accident on the radio. ​ One day, you’ll remember this email. ​ You don’t even consider that things could be different. ​ ​ But one day, the world will change — whether you like it or not. ​ ​ ​ One day it’ll all be crystal clear. ​ ​ If you thought that real estate was complex. That it was impossible to make money with it. That this is not an investment at the fingerprints of anyone… ​ Then… take a look to this. ​Is this piece of real estate a good investment​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

I’m going to give you 50% of the solution to any problem you have. I’m going to tell you what your biggest obstacle is. And just knowing that is already half the solution — because only when you know who your enemy is, can you fight it. And I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking it’s money — if only you had more. Or time — you don’t have enough. Knowledge — that one thing you still need to learn. Charisma, intelligence, or beauty — not enough of it. That thing you need to finish or fix,...
Today I bring you a true story. Or at least, it was told to me as a true story. And even if it wasn’t, the learning is huge. Well… Some time ago, a Filipino fisherman found a deformed pearl. Deformed and huge. It was so strange and so misshapen that he kept it as a good luck charm. And so big that the only place he could store it was under his bed. The thing weighed 34 kilos. Yes… 34 kilos or 75 pounds. One day, ten years later, our Filipino friend just discovered that the pearl was worth 100...
