Key Insights

Success is a tricky matter. 

How does one reach success?

Well, according to Grant Cardone, it’s all in the 10X Rule. 

Grant Cardone is a top sales trainer and business owner, and he has created the 10X Rule to help lead people toward success that previously seemed out of reach. 

“As long as you are alive, you will either live to accomplish your own goals and dreams or be used as a resource to accomplish someone else's.”- Grant Cardone

This easy-to-follow guide makes success tangible to anyone that has a clear goal in mind. 

With Cardone’s advice, you will be on your personal road to success in no time at all!

Invest More

When you are reaching for success, an important rule-of-thumb is to invest ten times more and reach ten times further than needed.

Success, inevitably, always takes more effort than we think it is going to. So, that’s why it’s best to be extra prepared. 

This 10X rule should be incorporated into your daily routine. If you think that you need to write 10 emails to investors, consider writing 100 instead!

In regards to your goal, both short-term and long-term, they should be ten times wilder than what would be considered realistic. Or, in other words, dream big!

If you fail because you didn’t meet your huge goal, then it’s not a big deal. However, if you fail because you didn’t meet an average goal, that’s more discouraging. 

Overcome the Unexpected

If you are truly doing ten times the work and dreaming ten times bigger, than you will surely be able to overcome unexpected roadblocks.

For example, if you are a business owner of a new catering company and you decide to hire more cooks for an event than needed, you will be prepared if the guest list expands as people didn’t RSVP and simply showed up at the door. If you are a true 10X Rule follower, you will also have enough food to feed them all!

“One of the major differences between successful and unsuccessful people is that the former look for problems to resolve, whereas the latter make every attempt to avoid them.”- Grant Cardone

Becoming successful in your business does not mean that you are hurting other people’s success. Everyone can have success. For example, just because one person wrote a bestseller, doesn’t mean another cannot. They are not in direct competition with each other. They are merely finding their own success in the same field. 

Challenges

The four degrees of action are important to take into consideration when you are faced with a challenge.

  • Do nothing. This is when you don’t take action when faced with a problem.
  • Retreat. This is when you back away or avoid the problem.
  • Normal action. This is when you do something to eliminate the problem. 
  • Massive action. This is when you go above and beyond to take care of the issue at hand. 
  • As children, when faced with a problem, we face it head-on and give it all we’ve got. We don’t stop to think about what could happen and what we have to lose. The 10X Rule says, adults...

    This app has been a lifesaver for my studies. Instead of struggling to finish textbooks, I can quickly get the key points from each chapter. It's helped me improve my grades and understand the material much better.
