The First Principles of Making Money by Robert Dilts

1. The first principle of making money is to create value, not to sell your time.
2. The first principle of creating value is to solve problems, not to put in labor.
3. The first principle of solving problems is to identify real needs, then quickly practice, get feedback fast, and iterate immediately.
4. The first principle of rapid iteration is to validate your model, so you can replicate the system more effectively.
5. The first principle of system replication is leverage thinking. Only by using leverage to amplify the system can you truly break free from drudgery and move toward real freedom.”
