Creator’s Note

By this point, you know that mindset drives mechanics.
But once the inner game clicks, there’s still one last trap: over-complication.
This chapter is your antidote — a four-step system so simple it’s nearly impossible to fail… if you actually do it!

The Paradox of Simplicity

Getting rich isn’t complicated — it’s emotional.
You’re not losing because the system’s too complex; you’re losing because you keep rewriting the system every time you feel uncertain.
The winners? They pick one simple path and hammer it long enough to get lucky on purpose.

Step 1: Pick a Vehicle (and Commit)

Forget “best model.”
The best business is the one you’ll still be running when everyone else has pivoted three times.

“The person who enjoys walking will walk farther than the person who loves the destination.”

Pick a model that feels like play but looks like work to others — content, coaching, services, affiliate, doesn’t matter.
Your real product is consistency.

Rule: if you don’t hate it, you can scale it.

Step 2: Identify the Inputs

Business is just a system:
Input → Process → Output.

  • Output = Money in your pocket.

  • Inputs = The few actions that actually create it.

For an agency: cold calls, DMs, follow-ups.
For content: publish, engage, repurpose.
For e-com: test, iterate, advertise.

That’s it. The rest is admin cosplay.
Know your inputs. Track them like vital signs.
Make them the goal — not the money.

Step 3: Copy What Works, Then Improve

Stop trying to be a genius; start being a scientist.
Find three-to-ten competitors already winning in your niche.
Reverse-engineer what they’re doing.

Then:

  1. Copy legally and intelligently. Extract structure, not slogans.

  2. Improve.

    • Quality: better message, tighter offer.

    • Quantity: double their output if you’re newer. Volume beats luck.

“Make it unreasonable for you not to succeed.”

You’re not reinventing the wheel. You’re adding horsepower.

Step 4: Consistency No Matter What

Consistency is the glue that turns small moves into massive outcomes.
Everyone’s consistent when it’s easy; almost no one is when it’s winter.

That’s where the game starts.
Hard is a feature, not a bug.
Resistance means you’re actually moving forward.

Mindset Upgrade:
Adopt the Stockdale Paradox.
Expect nothing. Work relentlessly.
Hope for the best, plan for pain.
When you detach from outcomes and obsess over inputs, time collapses — you simply become inevitable.

The Universal Formula

Step Focus Question to Ask Result
1 Vehicle “What game will I play for 3 years?” Direction
2 Inputs “Which 2–3 actions move the scoreboard?” Clarity
3 Copy + Improve “Who’s already winning — and how can I 2× their effort?” Proof
4 Consistency “Can I show up the same on bad days?” Compounding

That’s it. Four lines, infinite potential.

Why Simplicity Scales

  • Focus creates feedback.

  • Volume creates luck.

  • Consistency compounds identity.

The rest is noise disguised as nuance.

Quote to Remember

“You don’t need a new plan. You need to outlast your old one.” — M.C. Salmon

Mini-Summary

  • Pick one game and stay in it.

  • Spam the right inputs.

  • Copy, then customise.

  • Detach from outcomes; measure consistency.

Lesson Summary

  • Takeaway 1: Success is an input problem, not an intelligence problem.

  • Takeaway 2: Copying what works is wisdom, not weakness.

  • Takeaway 3: Expect nothing, execute everything, and time will fold.

Act As If Engine – Integration → Execution Mode 2.0
Prompt:

“I’ve picked my vehicle. What are the top 3 needle-moving inputs today, and how can I double them while feeling detached from the outcome?”

Then run your DISARM protocol if resistance hits — and keep pressing the “publish” button until consistency feels like breathing

🧭 THE FOUR-STEP SYSTEM MAP

How to Make Getting Rich Too Simple to Fail

OVERVIEW

“Information is a commodity. Consistency is currency.” — M.C. Salmon

Business isn’t magic; it’s a repeatable loop:
Vehicle → Inputs → Copy + Improve → Consistency → Feedback → Repeat

Each rotation compounds results.
Each loop forges identity.

STEP 1 — PICK YOUR VEHICLE

🎯 Choose the game you’ll still be playing in three years.

Ask:
→ “What feels like play to me but looks like work to others?”

Examples:

  • Content creation

  • Coaching or consulting

  • Affiliate or productised service

  • AI tools & digital systems

Mantra:

“If I don’t hate it, I can scale it.”

STEP 2 — IDENTIFY THE INPUTS

⚙️ Focus on the few actions that actually make money.

Ask:
→ “What daily actions create revenue, not activity?”

Examples:

  • Publish 1 new piece of content daily

  • Send 20 outreach messages

  • Test 3 offers or ads per week

Visual Cue:
💡 Input → Process → Output (Money)

Rule:

“Spam the inputs. The outputs will follow.”

STEP 3 — COPY WHAT WORKS, THEN IMPROVE

🧩 Success leaves blueprints.

Ask:
→ “Who’s already winning in my niche, and what are they doing?”

Action Plan:

  1. Study 3–10 competitors.

  2. Extract what works (funnels, DMs, videos).

  3. Improve

    • Quality: Better messaging or offers.

    • Quantity: Double their output.

Mantra:

“Make it unreasonable for me not to succeed.”

STEP 4 — CONSISTENCY NO MATTER WHAT

🔥 The glue that makes every strategy work.

Ask:
→ “Can I show up the same on bad days?”

Tools:

  • DISARM Protocol when emotion spikes.

  • Stockdale Paradox: Expect nothing, work anyway.

  • Detachment Rule: Outcomes happen after emotional neutrality.

Mantra:

“Hard is a feature, not a bug.”

CREATOR EXAMPLES

Stage Example Action Feedback Signal
Vehicle Choose “AI consulting for solopreneurs” Niche clarity
Inputs Send 20 DMs/day Conversations growing
Copy + Improve Model Alex Hormozi’s offer stack Higher response rate
Consistency Publish 90 days straight Compound visibility

FINAL FORMULA

Rich = (Simple System × Daily Inputs × Emotional Detachment) ÷ Time

The longer you run it, the luckier you get.
