On my flight from Singapore to Bali, I sat next to a German-born woman in her 50s. We both got upgraded to the Emergency Exits. After the special safety briefing, we started talking. She told me she had worked in HR her whole life. She had risen through the slippery corporate ranks in a large insurance company. After more than 30+ years, sheās on a career sabbatical, exploring Southeast Asia. No job. No fixed income. Just trust in herself. I smiled. I couldn't help but think about my own journey. She told me people kept asking: āHow will you make money?ā Her answer? āIāll figure it out.ā She wants to invest time to explore her interests. No panic. No hesitation. Just confidence. Most solopreneurs need that mindset. Theyāre waiting for certainty before they take action. But certainty comes after action, not before. Just like a bird doesn't worry about a branch breaking. Because it has complete confidence in its ability to fly. This is why I created the Perfect Positioning Workshop. So you donāt sit around āfiguring it outā for years. You are in the prime spot to get paying clients while others stay stuck āthinking.ā Just like my client, Matt, who added $6k/month in 2 months of working together. Thinking wonāt get you there. Action will. Here's the durians to add $2-5k per month: https://stealmydurians.com/ā Stay Limitless, Michael "that guy that talks to strangers" Lim |

My email yesterday struck a chord. I received emails like this: While I love hearing from you guys, these emails break my heart I canāt help but feel terrible. I know exactly what it was like to be in this position. Iām not in my 60s, but Iām familiar with being and feeling stuck. 2 years ago, my first business was failing me. I did well in my first year. But I didnāt build my sales engine. My clients ghosted me. A big proposal fell through. I got hit with a massive tax bill. I couldnāt deny...
I would say sorry, but Iām not sorry at all. In fact, I enjoyed it. And he started it. (So itās really his fault) Matt reached out to work with me last year. He told me he was stuck. He couldnāt crack a monthly income goal. He had been working with a coach who wasnāt getting any results. Even after six months of work together. He still had: No sales system. No offer clarity. No real progress. When we started together, we tore down his biz. Rebuilt his offers. Simplified his message....
One of my friendsā start-ups got copied. He has a business-to-business software as a service. I wonāt go into too much detail. (to avoid future copycats) But he came across a website that copied everything. The copywriting.The product.The positioning.The ideal client profile. Even the branding looked the same. He was anxious for days. He and his co-founder kept struggling to understand what to do. They contacted clients and reassured them. This was a massive threat to his business. When I was...
