Here are 14 quotes taken from his top-selling book ‘Credibility Method’:
“People always say it’s not ‘what’ you know, it’s ‘who’ you know. However, that couldn’t be further from the truth. It actually is all about ‘what’ you know, because ‘what’ you know is exactly what determines ‘who’ you know.”
“I don’t believe in “getting rich quick”. I believe in hard and consistent work, building intelligent leverage, adding value to the world we live in, and serving others with my expertise.”
“Always be an exception to the rule, and be the one who stands out, reads, implements, and succeeds.”
“The more money you make, the more free shit you will get. The more connections you’ll have, the more people will throw opportunities and resources at you, and around and around we go.”
“Imagine a life full of power, respect, opportunities, and abundance. You deserve all of it. Whether you’re in a full time career, working a part time job, self employed, or a full blown entrepreneur – you need to increase your credibility if you want to continue moving onward and upward at a fast pace.”
“When I first discovered entrepreneurship at 24 and tried spreading positivity and trying to share opportunities with others – I was met with a disappointing result at best. I used to get hung up on daily, ignored, ditched, and disrespected. People thought I was a joke. “How could Myke ever succeed?”
“If you are currently not where you want to be in life, that is a direct reflection of your surroundings – including your friends. In order to begin re-inventing yourself, you cannot bring along any anchors or distractions.”
“During childhood I picked up the habit of lying because I was unhappy with myself and my surroundings. So, I let my mind make up a different story and I chose to try and believe it. By telling other people those stories, it helped me convince myself that my actual reality wasn’t true. Becoming an entrepreneur gave me something to believe in and a reason to break that habit.”
“I’ve learned that by sharing the truth and embracing the things you are embarrassed about, you will actually earn the trust and respect of others. Everybody has flaws, and if you openly embrace and share them, you will live a more rewardable and carefree life. Think about how this applies to your life or career. You may not be the best or have the most talent in your industry, but if you can own up to that and accept it, it will allow you to move forward faster.”
“My opinion is that most people are not stupid, and the majority of people are likely skeptical of many online ‘influencers’ for good reason. I also usually lean towards thinking that plenty of “entrepreneurs” on Instagram are often full of shit. Unfortunately, when I meet a lot of them my suspicions are confirmed. I’d rather see people who are sharing their hustle and being open about their struggles. I am much more likely to endorse that person and try to pay attention to their journey.”
“You must take action and begin to tear down everything around you. This includes lying, hanging around the wrong people, wasting your time and energy, wasting your money, and being lazy. Becoming successful is not easy, and the principles you live by will determine how difficult your specific journey will be.”
“Too many people believe in ‘luck’. The only way you will become successful is by setting the goal, creating the right intentions, and taking all out massive action.”
“If you’re the type of person who sees something that needs to be done, such as cleaning the cat’s litter box but you choose to put it off, or if you are the type of person who pisses on the toilet seat and chooses not to clean it up – you do not have what it takes to be successful.”
“When you don’t respect yourself, you will consequently reflect that outwards. Your posture and outwards aura is much like a loudspeaker. Whatever you plug into a speaker determines the noise that comes out of it. Put great thought into what you are ‘plugging in’, because it is exactly what will radiate outwards.”
