skills over models. I still remember the weeks I spent binge watching all the jordan bown dropshipping videos while also trying to make money with YT automation/posting clips made peanuts off both. just because I was stubborn. I just needed any way out. trying to see which "business model" was the smartest to stick to. you likely had the same experience. but then it turned into a quitting ritual. you go into one. study it for a while. then realize it's "a scam" but it wasn't the model bro. the thing you missed was what every single model out there actually relies on.. getting people to say yes the dropshipping videos you watched taught you how to optimize your website. payment processors. and make it look trusted. same logic as telling someone. improve your wardrobe collection and more women will want to go home with you. they gave you the surface. and left out how the seduction happens. you see.. every model out there is just a different way of asking people for money. some do cold dms. some cold call. some run ads. some write content. each one has a slightly different onboarding process. but it's still problem -> agitate -> solution (product) every business model runs on that structure they all follow the same psychology. whether you're cold dming or writing content. you need to make the prospect understand that he's missing out by not using your product aka: fear of missing out you learn that by studying marketing/persuasion which are skills you need to get someone to give you their money. a fancier website won't fix bad marketing. never will. 200 desperate cold dm's won't cancel out the fact that they are desperate. learn buying psychology. always remember that. the answers are in the skills. not the models. I'd save this if I were you. cuz you may not see it again. cash stackin gridd.

go for a cardio session with no music it’s boring. really boring. especially if you do it in the gym. nothing remotely interesting is happening. maybe except for the brunette doing stretches in the corner. but ignore that for now. it’s just you. the treadmill. and a timer showing you how long you've been running. you told yourself you were going to run a 5k. now you know that if you don't do it. you'll leave the gym feeling like a soy boy because you couldn't deliver. your subconscious mind takes another hit. it knows that you never do what you say you'll do. it knows you can't deal with the silence. so you'll try to fill in every silent moment with something more rewarding. that's the life of the average person. and frankly, it's funny and pathetic to see at the same time. funny because I used to be that average guy. pathetic because getting out of that bubble was simpler than most people make it out to be. if you usually go gym with your boy, he probably panicked before because he forgot his airpods at home. "haha it's fine g" the idea of mild boredom scares the fuck out of people. it's not a pretty way to live. the point isn't to go gym and raw dog every workout. it's mastering the art of enjoying the silence. when I'm working. I'm silent. my environment is silent. no notifications in sight. only the sound of my keyboard. and the thoughts in my head telling me "this will all pay off sooner or later, just go" go read my "your bedroom should be designed like a casino " post. dm me and I'll send you the link. I don't know when it will pay off. and neither will you. and that's the silence I'm talking about. the one people avoid at all costs. the silence after first 30 days of trying business. the silence after learning a new method and still failing. that's where the abandonment rate is high. and it was never a matter of finding a new business model to try. that's actually the trap itself. because the silence your focus should be on the progress itself. not the timer. not the numbers. level up your persuasion stats. writing stats. offer creation stats. copy stats. and once you reach that. the money lands. anyway, 5k is done. now get back to the marathon of studying money and psychology cash stackin gridd.

the biggest lie you were told “it’s not that simple” but people only say that because they don’t want to pay for the choices they make. wanna know when I realized it’s all a lie? when I saw friends of mine much smarter. much more educated than I am throw everything they want away because they chose to be extra realistic. realistic to the point of self sabotage. they don’t have the “what if” mentality. smart people tend to have a “glass half empty” outlook on life. it’s called “paralysis by analysis” for a reason. "bro you’re definitely above average at coding, what don’t you use that?” "I don’t know. I tried coding up a trading bot that predicts market patterns and calls trades for me, but It didn’t go too well” "why not try something else?” "yeah bro I’m looking into it, it’s just not that easy” "alright..” I had the exact same conversation again 3 months after that. "yo g did you figure something out with coding?” same answers. same demeanour. the only thing that changed this time was me telling him that he’ll regret wasting his talent. and I know this guy very well. he’s smart. he knows at least a little bit about any topic you can really think of. but his ambition dies down just as fast. where did his intelligence or realism get him so far? nowhere that he wants to be. I’d like to think that won’t be the case for too long. back to the point. how is it “simple”? you make choices and never look back. because looking back means that you’re still attached to your older life. your older self. and it will be just a matter of time before you revert to it. how did all the greats become successful? they understand that the choice they make now is the one they’ll stick to. even though they will pay some costs on the way there. there’s always a dark tunnel before the light. your job is to pay the price without ever looking back. because you’ve internalized that the reward at the end is… worth it. there’s a sense of freedom behind it you’ll understand once you make that decision you’ve been putting off. wake up. clean up. work without looking at the time. realize 6 hours have flown by. you’ve done more than most people do in a week. get dressed and make sure you’re looking like a million dollars (yes even when you’re going gym). slap on bleu de channel edp and smell like a gentleman who has questionable intentions. blast some gunna on the way there. what’s the cost behind all this? maybe some boredom here and there. maybe some cancelled outings. maybe a heightened sense of ego you never signed up for. fine by me. and this ego doesn’t come from free time or hopping onto jet skis every once in a while and posting it on IG. it comes from the fact that you stuck by the choice you made. something most people will never experience. cash stackin take care, gridd.

if you're going to wake up to notifications then make sure they're about money not trying to sound like rick ross. but he has a point you know. it's a different type of feeling when you wake up to a "new subscriber to the archive" message on your lock screen instead of 20+ reels sent on your IG group instead of all the deliveroo offers if you're anything like me. you don't care for a notification unless it makes you feel better in a way i know you're waiting for her to text you back bro so you resort to scrolling on your phone to get small hits until you get the real hit of seeing her name pop up on your screen. but relying on her name to pop up is the reason she isn't texting you. just let it sit. so why not create your own notifications? by solving a pain point in someone else. that's all business revolves around: selling people relief from their pain you don't need to be a world class expert to do it. just 3-4 steps ahead of the man/woman who have the problem and couldn't solve it. if you were a skinny fat kid who managed to tone up and build some muscle. then you're ahead of at least 50% of the population. all you have to do is pick the type of person/demographic you can help. could be 21 -35 year old men who got no energy to workout after office hours 40 - 55 year old women who blame their metabolism for their constant weight gain. know some guys that make money simply because they knew how trick their dopamine system and stop getting distracted all the time. and they showed other people how to do it. pick your poison. as long as you understand the problem better than most people. the markets are endless. and the paypal notifications endless too. wire yourself to get your hits from progress. enough said. cash stackin gridd.

whoever is indifferent wins.. "wait why doesn't he care I ghosted him?" "is he talking to other women?” ”damn he must have other options” things both a girl and your prospect would say same psychology. different arena. you see. sometimes the product is top notch. but your own state makes the prospect view the product like a pair of pants from temu. no scarcity. no quality. no different than any other experience. because they don’t buy the product. they buy the experience they get from using it. and if this experience isn’t good/dreamy enough in their mind. they buy from someone else. let me tell you about a concept called “the seller’s market” in a seller’s market. demand is high and supply is low. meaning that the seller has all the power. sets the rules. and the buyer is the one chasing because they can’t find that product easily. opposite of a buyer’s market. where supply is high and the demand is always changing. if demand drops. then you’ll have to drop your price to stay in the competition. but this is where you get friend zoned by both the chick and the potential buyer you never want to be in a position where you drop your price to meet someone’s needs. very fragile strategy. because that removes the “dream” state you want them to be in. they think you’re just another guy/another product I’m sure most of us have made that mistake before. instead. you want to operate like you’re in a seller’s market. not by pretending. by building it. you don’t need them because you already got other buyers. your price stays the same because other buyers are more than happy to pay that price. your product is top tier which is why other people are interested. that’s what indifference is. not being overly cold. not completely ignoring them. just not needing the outcome. being indifferent will directly reflect in how you act and approach your buyers. and when you’re confident in your product + indifferent about the outcome. people’s perception of your product is much higher. see how it works? the moment you chase. it’s over. you’re technically fighting for scraps. they might go for an impulse buy because your product is cheap and they need a quick hit. but they’ll leave once they find something better. unless your product is insanely good and they decide to stay. but at this point, you still lose anyway. you just sold a fucking good product for dirt cheap because you weren’t able to show how valuable it is in the first place out of desperation. and don’t mind if I slightly hurt your feelings here but this means that you don’t see the value in yourself. which is why you weren’t able to give them the right perception. simple as that. to get them through the front door AND keep them. the perception needs to be there first. now you’re probably thinking ”grid, how can I act like I have options when I don’t?” you don’t bro. most people wouldn’t be able to act it anyway. because the issue is in how you view yourself. it’s an exhausting mask to put on. and people will see right through it. you build the indifference. you go out there and grab the options for yourself. again, not from a desperate mind frame. you have 5, 10, 15, 50 different conversations. the buyer that ghosted doesn’t ruin your entire month anymore. because you don’t need them to say yes. you don’t care if she replied because you got other shit to worry about that doesn’t revolve around her. when you know your product solves a deep pain point, and you know you’ve put in the hours to make it bulletproof, the desperation vanishes. you stop looking at a prospect like a saviour who needs to pay your pocket money, and you start looking at them as someone who either wants the solution or wants to keep living in the same loop. It may be a little uncomfortable at first. but that’s how you reach the seller’s market frame. the outcome doesn’t phase you anymore. re-read this until it sinks in. love, gridd.

0 progress to the average thinker literally means death. so your own mind will do everything to pull the plug on the whole operation because it wants safety. I used to be that guy. promised my mom the world. 3 months later I'm wondering what I could be doing wrong. one bad thought away from calling it all off. now I see the 0 as a temporary glitch in the matrix because reality hasn’t caught up yet. the mega entrepreneurs will tell you how they love looking at profit margins. conversion rates. fucking IG reel engagement charts. and because that’s all you see. you think numbers are the game. so you chase that. you obsess with them to the point where you start operating from a place of lack. which makes you blind to what actually generates the numbers in the first place. when you operate from lack. you panic. your fixate on the buyer that ghosted. you lower the price, and your value in the process. you start playing it safe when that’s the worst step you can take right now. look at it this way bro. yes numbers an are indicator that your work is paying off. but you can't rely on them because growth is not linear. it never was. (look at the graph) you got used to seeing the end of the story. the lambos and the penthouses. the 315 bench press and the weighted muscle ups. that's why I say never scroll tiktok at 2 a.m. you put all these images in your mind right before sleeping. when your brain is working from it's emotional engine. these images seem harmless. but subconsciously you are comparing your progress with other people's. and when your subconscious mind starts believing that you "aren't good enough".... that's when it starts selling you on quitting. being at/quite close to 0 for a while gives you the perception that everything you're doing is a scam. but let me tell you this. you're focused on the wrong stuff entirely. the progress happens from within first. then the numbers come. the progress of going from a distracted adhd induced mf to a man who wastes no time from a useless stake gambler/fifa player to a dopamine dealer I still play some fifa here and there though. any contestants? you man don't want the smoke. the numbers are just a reflection of who you are. if your mind is still in chaos. your dashboard will reflect it. "as within, so without" look up the meaning and you'll understand. take care, grid.

everything comes at a cost are you willing to pay the entry price? value is tied to scarcity. you already know that. but have you really accepted it? why do fat people envy people in shape? people in shape automatically get respect and they don’t… sure.. but why does it trigger them so deeply to the point of helplessness? because a fit physique can’t be fast tracked. you can’t buy it. you can’t fake it. you can’t borrow it from someone else. you’ll have to go through months/years of clanging and banging to get to a desirable physique that gets your abs licked by a dirty blonde. the fat person has been fat for so long to the point where his identity has solidified as “I am the type of person who can’t lose weight” that’s where the envy comes in. that’s when they justify their failure and go back to binge eating. I’m not judging. just telling you how people think because understanding how people think is my job. you have to look past the difficulty and see your goal for what it really is. a series of steps you take that will move you from point A to B. with some mistakes in the middle and solving these mistakes. the difficulty is simply a part of the package. it’s what makes the journey intense. and I like intense. my workouts. intense. my work. intense. my fragrances intense. (le sel d’issey does wonders) because without intensity there’s no reward. and you can use this to print $$$ who do people usually buy from? simple. the guy who went through the intensity and figured a way out that they couldn’t. he’s at stage 4. they’re at stage 1. they know he has valuable info to them. all they need to do is pay and get all the wisdom he acquired over the years through an easily accessible document so that they don’t waste time and energy. an exchange of money for time. just a matter of bridging the gap. most potential buyers will want the stage 4 outcome. but are terrified of going through stage 1. the boring unsexy part. and because it doesn’t work that way, they freeze. they default back to the familiar habit of doing nothing because it’s easier to say “I can’t” than to face stage 1. even stages 2 and 3. because their identity is still damaged. and it caught up to them. that’s why I asked you if you’ve actually accepted that value is tied to scarcity. if you want a life that the average joe will never have, it’s not just a matter of avoiding distractions and excuses. you have to BE the type of guy who’s disgusted with distractions. disgusted with “normal”... value is scarce because the intensity required to get it is scarce. when you condition yourself to like the intense lifestyle. everything falls into place. you either pay the price or you spend the rest of your life envying the man who did. hope you learnt something. keep stacking. offgrid.

chasing money is the most dead-end game you'll ever play... have you ever wondered how money actually works? what it even is? before I did some research I though money was linked to gold. and that there is a finite amount of gold that requires plenty of effort to mine. so they created bills with value because not everyone can walk into places and hand in a bar of gold to pay for dinner or whatever it may be. but I was very far off. laughably far. and if you still have the same thought pattern about money. I am about to shatter it for you. It’s about time. because this very thought pattern is what’s making you view money as this scary. hard to obtain asset that’s only handed to you if slave away for long enough. slaving away is the most dead end game you’ll ever experience. enough with the role play. let’s dive in. MONEY EXISTS BECAUSE EVERYONE BELIEVES IN IT think of money as a ticket to a giant game of musical chairs that the entire world is playing. A long time ago (before 1971), this ticket was made of actual gold/silver. let’s just say it’s gold for simplicity reasons. So if you had a ticket on you. it meant that you owned a piece of gold that was locked in a vault. and you can exchange this ticket for that piece of gold. meaning that cash was in fact, tied to gold at the time. but in 1971, the government decided to fuck that concept off and change how it works. they essentially said “we are no longer linking these tickets to gold. these tickets hold value just because we say they do. and because you’ll all agree to use them that way” from that moment on. came the saying “money is fake” It’s nothing but a psychological agreement. the physical bills are backed by nothing anymore. it’s just a piece of paper. and the number printed on that paper dictates how much of something you can buy because everyone agreed on it before they realized what’s actually happening. let’s dig a little deeper. Imagine you walked into the bank and wanted to take out a $50k loan for a car. you’d think that the bank will pull money out of their safe and legally bind you to return this money at an interest rate so that they can walk away with the profit. the interest rate part is right. but in reality. they never touch the safe. they don’t borrow it from your neighbour's bank account either. they just input the number they’ll lend you into a computer. “5-0-0-0-0”. where it’s saved. and the money is created out of your signature on a contract. just like that. only 3-5% of all the money in the world that exists right now is in the form of physical cash. the other 95% is purely digital data sitting banking servers. digital illusions on a screen. finance is so weird. but think about it. the only reason you can now walk into a restaurant with a $100 bill and pay for dinner is because both you and the restaurant owner believe it’s worth something. because of the psychological agreement that happened in 1971. If everyone alive right now suddenly decided not believe in it. then it’s nothing but a worthless piece of paper with a number printed on it. you walk into a restaurant. give the $100 bill as payment. or pay through your credit card. and the owner rejects it. because both digital and physical money lost their value. gold is valuable because it’s a rare piece of metal that takes actual energy to mine. value it directly tied to scarcity. digital money and physical bills are simply tokens. like in a game. written into a digital spreadsheet by banks just because everyone decided to agree it’s real. here’s the thing though. it’s not your job to make everyone think it’s “fake”. or complain that it’s fake. that’s not how things work. there has to be some form currency that can be used. otherwise everything crumbles. common sense. the issue itself isn’t in the psychological agreement. it’s that the banks are constantly printing money on a screen and fucking you over in the process so they can profit. because each loan they give away has an interest rate tied to it. (ie: how they make profit) now you’re probably wondering “why is the action of the bank printing money on a screen bad for me?” this isn’t just about interest rates. It’s that the money your working so hard for is slowly losing it’s value if you own a super rare collectible card. and there are only 10 of them in the entire world. your card is worth a fortune. but then. the creator of the game goes to a computer. hits a button. and effortlessly creates 10,000 more copies of your exact card. What happens to your rare card? It’s value drops down by 20x. That is exactly what the banks are doing to you. Every single time a bank clicks a button to create new digital money for a loan, they are flooding the world with more tokens. But the amount of real stuff in the world. like houses. meat. and gas stays exactly the same. So now. it takes way more of these common tokens to buy the exact same stuff The system calls this “inflation”. with me till now? if not. don’t worry. we’re about to get into the good part. reread this as much as you need to. WHAT THIS ACTUALLY MEANS it means the exchange of money is purely linked to trust right now. the bank checks your credit score before handing you the loan to make sure there’s enough TRUST that you’ll pay them their money back. your credit score is simply a 3 digit score showing them how safe it is to lend you money. that’s it. they track how well you paid the bank their money back before. if you paid on time. if you missed any payments. etc… they don’t care how badly you need this loan or if you need to pay off your medical bills. lesson in there. they will instantly reject your request for a loan if you were recorded for multiple missed rental/utility bill payments and previous delays with paying the bank their money back in general. (ie: a bad credit score) they don’t trust you = you don’t get access to money and once you realize that earning money is a game of winning people’s trust. as you are right now. then you stop viewing it from a mindset of scarcity. money is simply an exchange of value. you provide an individual with a product/service that adds value into his/her life. they send you their computer points in return. you don’t actually chase the bills. because that will result in you pleasing a boss for the next 45 years only because if you’re a good employee for long enough. you TRUST that he will pay you at the end of each month. while he slowly drags you deeper into the rabbit hole by paying you more of it every 3 years. subtly increasing your TRUST in him and keeping you dependant on him. the harsher part because the banks keep inflating the currency and interest rates anyway. while printing money on a screen. this “higher” salary you can’t wait to go home and tell your wife/girlfriend about isn’t actually a higher salary. "i’m talking you out somewhere nice today love” but you still go and get dismantled regardless. $300 for some wine and steak. because everything now costs MORE money. your girlfriend can already see the drop in your shoulders the moment you saw the total bill. the finance aspect of things go much, much deeper than that. this is more of a general outlook on it to keep things simple for you mfs. ———————————————— CHASE TRUST you now know that chasing the money is essentially pointless so you bring it to you. you attract it. so you chase the trust that makes people hand you this money in exchange for value instead. by offering a product/service that removes a problem for a certain archetype of people. 40 year old dads that have no energy to work out after a long day of work → offer them home workouts they can do for 15 minutes a day (easy + no need to buy gym membership) single mothers that want to get back in the dating space and find a good partner (post content that breaks down how to find high value men and how to avoid pushing them away ) broke middle-aged men that are drowning in a saturated job market ( offer a business model that doesn’t require start-up capital they can work on after work hours) find a problem → the people who experience it frequently → post content to attract them into your brand (build trust) → offer a solution aka: the inbound method you can call this a business model. you can call it whatever you want. every “business model” you know of follows that framework in some way. and requires the exact same set of skills. don’t stress it bro. I’ll write up another email breaking how the inbound method actually works in detail + how to pick a problem you enjoy solving and making content about. It’s not rocket science. you just need to understand the mechanism behind it. but this is already enough to play on. you manufacture trust by paving a path your audience has already been wanting to take. but too lazy/busy/tired to do so. by giving them a simple way out of their issue. they automatically consider you as the doctor who’ll help them battle their sickness. people like being guided. they’d much rather get their info/value from one person. than do hours of research everyday. watching countless videos and reading articles. while deciding what info is useful and what isn’t. don’t lose your mind chasing money. chase trust instead. always cash stackin. money is fake and easy to get once you know how. take care, D.

this is why you find business intimidating its because you never won before bro. you got 2 likes instead of 200 the client ghosted when he promised to go on a call normal day btw. there's nothing wrong with you. you wanna know why it bothers you? because you're already in too deep. and have no plan of quitting. at least anytime soon. so you're wondering if all the effort you're about to put in will go to waste. how do you make sure that doesn't happen? 1 - learn one new thing everyday sometimes you get too caught up in the results you're currently getting and forget that you're not as good as you should be. yet. I used to spend over 30 minutes a day just refreshing my content to see if it performed or not it was a habit at a certain point. an addiction. and if you have it too. you need to kill it immediately. you're putting energy into mentally draining yourself. post -> leave the app -> learn -> repeat the only thing you should be worried about is if your content is getting people into your brand or not. fuck the likes. check your posts performance at the end of the day/the week. which takes me to my next point 2 - use your mistakes to cheat business is nothing but solving a puzzle. do not overcomplicate things for yourself g at the start. your problem will likely be getting attention. so you LEARN and consume info from the greats on how they managed to write words/say things that made people listen. see how you're hitting 2 birds with one stone? you have a problem -> you learn from someone who fixed it -> use that info and get rich as fuck ie: you're learning everyday you can't get stuck if you're always moving cash stackin. offgrid.

stat stacking lesson 2: sales if you want to sell anything you don't position it as "this is the best in the market" they don't know what "the best" means 90% of the time. and they don't give a shit. you position it as "you're currently at point A. this helps you go from A to B" problem -> solution look at this piece by claude hopkins and enlighten yourself

your bedroom should be designed like a casino no clocks. no phone. complete isolation from the outside world. your environment is directly tied to the results you bring in. why do you think gaming companies like Rockstar print billions? because they designed visual and audio cues to keep their audience in a dream-like state. an environment they would WANT to stay in. you never check your phone in the middle of a GTA heist. because your drowning in the experience itself. there are steps you have to take. there’s a goal. there is a reward at the end of it. the more you level up. the more gets unlocked in the game. you promised yourself to play blackjack with 200 pounds tonight. but you ended up buying another stack of chips because the environment around you is built to keep you in a “winning” mindset. no windows. exits are hard to find. you can hear the victory sound effect coming from the slot machines near the table you’re sat in. they are positioned there for a reason. it’s all calculated. casino businesses are purely psychological. with some math involved in it. and you can replicate this to play the game of online business from your room. so that you get lost in the work. lost in the progress. it’s no surprise that you can’t sit down for longer than 20 minutes before something else steals your attention. discipline has fuck all to do with it. it’s an enemy in your environment. could be your phone. could be an open door that lets noise in . could be that gold chain on your desk you keep fidgeting with every time work gets boring. that’s why I work with airpods 80% of the time. to silence the noise from the construction site right next to my building. I like to tunnel my focus on one thing at a time. with no external factors that can ruin it. it’s foolish to allow something this stupid to take from your brain power bro. I wasn’t born with magical focus either. during my time in uni I couldn’t even look at the professor for longer than a few seconds. meaning that I couldn’t listen for too long either. to the point where I’d skip classes because I knew it’s time wasted anyway. I had the lecture slides. I’ll be fine. I’d go back home. open up fifa. have some YT running in the background. pop a pablo. all while I scroll my phone in between games. It’s a good time. but it comes at a cost. the cost of driving enough dopamine into your nervous system to make life feel like watching paint while it dries out. boring and unfulfilling as fuck. the ONLY option was to optimize the environment around me. just like it’s optimized in a casino. so that distractions don’t creep in. dim lighting. clean desk space. airpods in. phone where I can’t see/hear it. never get off my chair before I complete a certain set of tasks, not when a 60 timer is over. laptop notifications off. one tab open at a time. not 20. multiple tabs open on your laptop are multiple tabs open in your mind. all slowly taking away from your performance. hectic. also, invest in a comfortable chair. helps you avoid getting up a lot. there’s no benefit to starting the game on hard mode. when there are ways to make it easy. get lost in the grind. or get lost in life. cash stackin. - offgrid
