MLS 3rd Run Bloom, Day 14
Some thoughts as I was thinking about what next year will be like for me. I think next year I will focus heavily on system building.
Much of what I do now involves product creation and using someone else's platform to sell my product. For my business, I create good quality physical products and sell them on Amazon. For game, I create a good product (me) and go on online dating apps and put myself there. There are many parallels between business and game, and I have been focusing on product creation in both of these areas. It's a 'build it and they will come' mentality. It's my comfort zone and what I like best, I like to create cool products and work on myself. I like quality and depth and those are what I create, both in my products and in myself.
I have been having a good level of success with that mindset. Leveraging technology, I was able to get on platforms so that more people can see my quality. However, to get to much high levels, I need to expand and improve my system massively. I need to think of my entire funnel, from lead generation, lead conversion and lead retention. Amazon and online dating apps are only singular sources of leads and they are very limited. I need to have processes that reliably bring prospective customers and girls into my life, environments to reliably close those customers and girls, and also processes to keep them coming back. That last bit has been my weakest area this year. The whole system needs to work like a well oiled machine. In game, think about Dan Bilzerian. He gets tons of hot girls not because he's rich, but it's because he has a solid system that brings in tons of new girls (leads) and a fantastic lifestyle to bring them into (conversion).
I wrote before that I want to be successful in both business and game next year and I want to be able to switch focus quickly between them. But maybe if I see them both as system building, there'll be continuity and they won't require very different mind spaces as they have this year.
