Matt Bacak: Secrets of the Internet Millionaire Mind

I just read Secrets of the Internet Millionaire Mindby Matt Bacak who brands himself as the “Powerful Promoter”.

Matt is an incredible guy who started his first company with employees at the age of 12!

Here are two nuggets I thought might benefit you and your business:

  • Internet millionaires ask questions beginning with what and how … but not why! Matt Bacak said that ‘why’ reminds us of childhood days that we often are asked, ‘Why did you do that?’  Instead, ask questions like ‘What are my goals?’ and ‘How do I get there?’
  • Internet millionaires use two magic words: systemize and monetize. As an engineer by training, I particularly like the term ’systemize’. In business too, if we can systemize what we want to do, our business or work would become process-dependent rather than people-dependent. With a system, when you put in a certain input, you are guaranteed a certain output…  As I write, that reminds me of The E-Myth Revisited: Why Most Small Businesses Don’t Work and What to Do About It - that I would recommend anyone who wants to start or own a small business to read from cover to cover!

    MINDSET is everything!

    I believe that many of us find it a challenge to change our mindset so as to progress in our journey to success …

    What do you think?

    I chose to differ with Matt Bacak. I believe if one have a strong WHY, then the WHAT and HOW will come in automatically.

    Hi BenL,

    Certainly agreed with you that WHY is indeed the most important!

    This reminds me of Jack Zufelt who came to Singapore this week and talked about having the CORE DESIRE to succeed - which is indeed another way of putting the WHY into sharp focus. He said that when our core desire is 100%, it will overcome all barriers. Isn’t that interesting?
