You reading this text could completely change your life.

Imagine this. One day you wake up in the morning and your alarm clock goes off. You’re pretty tired, so you sleep in an extra five minutes. Because you slept in for an extra five minutes, you have to walk a little faster when walking to work. Because you’re walking faster, you’re more careless and you jaywalk a little because of this, you get hit by a motorcycle.

It turns out the motorcycle was ridden by a guy who runs his own construction business. He feels pretty bad about the accident. So he decides to give you a job with better pay than your current job. Two years later, you’re doing very well. You have a team of guys working for you.

You get a phone call and your boss was in a motorcycle accident. Your boss is now paralyzed, so he has you running the business for him. Fast forward a few years, your boss has now retired, so he sells the business to you.

By the age of 42, you’re retired and worth over $10 million. All because you slept in for an extra FIVE minutes, one day.
