5 Powerful life lessons from Triciabiz.

Triciabiz made $100,000 (~N40m) in 3 days selling her Knowledge.

For context, she is Nigerian.

Her progress got Facebook's attention and they reached out to collaborate with her on a project.

But it wasn't always so.

After she left her well paying marketing job, she became broke and didn't know what to do.

She started hosting physical trainings, which didn't really make much money.

She was charging somewhere around N3k to N5k

But she observed that attendees loved her teaching style so much

they said it was the best they ever attended.

She loved teaching, but still hadn't found how to break through and make money with it.

Until, she hosted a webinar, several years ago, where she charged N3k and made N400k.

This sparked a new hunger and inspired a new journey.

She decided to stay consistent and it has paid off.

She is proud to be a success story out of Nigeria, & Africa, changing the false narrative held about us as a people.

Why am I telling you this?

I don't know.

Maybe I want to share 5 lessons I have personally learnt from her

1. What you have is enough for you to start.

As a creator, you always think:

"Maybe I should read one more book, then I'll be ready"

"I just need to take one more course and I'm set"

"In 3 month's time, I'll be good to start"

The ugly truth is, that is the excuse we tell ourselves for being afraid to take action.

Am I saying we should not prepare?

No.

I'm saying that what you have is enough to start.

And just so you know:

"You will never feel like you are ready.

The only time you feel ready is after death

Or

After it has become obvious you can't execute the idea anymore."

Think about the plans you had last year that you never acted on because you thought

'I am not ready'

Do you feel now that you actually had what it took to get it done?

That's how you'll feel about your current ideas.

You think you are not ready?

Wait till someone else does it,

Or

Till this time passes and you realize you were actually ready.

You are ready when you decide.

2. Start small, don't wait till you have all the answers.

You may not be an outlier.

You may not win the awards immediately.

You may not be an Omah Lay who bursts into the scene and becomes an instant impact in your industry.

Start with what you have.

3. Focus on really helping people.

Tricia's goal now is to empower 500,000 business owners before 2030.

The more people you can help, them money you make.

The faster you help people, the father you make money.

Wealth is not in places, it is in people.

4. We are in the world of the micro consultant.

That knowledge you have.

That experience, message, idea can fetch you good money...

As long as...

It solves a problem for people.

You don't need a fancy office.

You need your brain power and access to the internet

5. Start creating more than consume.

Blog posts...

Tweets and threads...

Lives...

Videos...

Webinars...

Books...

Courses...

Masterminds...

Memberships...

Communities...

Create things.

And that reminds me, why have you abandoned that book you started writing?

Why haven't you even started it?

What if that book is just supposed to be a bridge to a bigger opportunity?

And until you write it, that opportunity won't come?

Could it be that you are the one standing in your way?

What if the prayers you've been making to God, you are the one with the answer?

What if you are the one preventing the answer from showing up?

Wake up.
