7 Skills that’d help make your first million
Yo Guys!
It’s gonna be a metaphysical dive.
A fair warning: I’m not a millionaire.
These are my musings on the teachings of millionaires and billionaires.
Like Naval Ravikant, Sam Altman, and Peter Thiel.
They all have one thing in common.
Coding?
NO!
Something deeper.
A drive.
An obsession with problem-solving.
These people are CRAZY for solving problems.
So are you?
If not, do this quick experiment.

Close your eyes.
And think of all the problems you’re facing at this point in life. Now envision what your life would be if you overcame all these problems.
Imagine your future.

Reckon if you’re facing those problems.
Others might as well.
And once you have the solution.
You can teach others how to solve those problems.
There you have it.
Your Million dollar idea.
Now you need a few vehicles or tools to reach your destination.
7 Skills to master to make your first million:
1. Coding — without a doubt
But there are powerful no-code AI tools available that let you get the work done without knowing how to code.
Still, I’d say learn to code for two (profound) reasons.
First, coding works your problem-solving muscles and teaches you how to build logic.
Second, it fuels imagination.
