@alishako That's interesting that Tim Ferris' technique did not work for you. I actually enjoyed Tai's 67 Steps course. It was more motivational to me than anything else. It was more of a kick in the pants to inspire me to focus on things that are important. So, I found value in it for that reason.
I agree, I was really into Tai Lopez way back in the day before he became famous ("lost in his own sauce" is what I like to call it, or "drinking his own cool aid" or "getting high off his own supply"). I think he is just a marketer now, whereas in the beginning he seemed to be very invested in nurturing a maturing an intelligent community of followers. Now, he is just interested in marketing marketing marketing.
