Whenever billionaires like Steve Jobs, Elon Musk or Dangote sit for an interview.
And theyâre asked these questions;
1. âWhatâs the secret to your success?â
2. âHow can young people become successful?â

They all give the same advice and it's the worst advice you can get if you want to become successful.
Can you guess what it is?
Okay, I'll tell you!
âFollow Your Passionâ
This 3-word advice is complete bullsh*t. It's one of the greatest lies on earth.
But I understand why they say so.
Imagine they decide to give an honest answer and say;
âIâm a billionaire because Iâm smarter than most poor peopleâ
How does it sound?
It makes them sound insensitive, even though thereâs (some) truth to it.
Look,
billionaires say âFollow your passionâ because itâs the safer option.
And it appeals to the minds of ordinary people.
Hereâs the truth
If you want to become successfulâŠ
You need to do the things 90% of ordinary people arenât willing to do.
You need to put your head where it hurts. You need grit, perseverance and sacrifice.
