15 Success Principles of the Top 1%

People see the success. The cars. The jet… and think I’m special.

That I’ve got something they don’t.

I’m NOT special.

I started out as a broke 17 year old struggling with crime, addiction, and ADHD.

But I’m going to share the 15 Principles of Success that took me from that to selling 3 companies, writing a WSJ bestselling book, and building a $100 million dollar empire.

Anyone can use these to level up and actually become rich in 2025.

This video hit me hard. I was praying to God for guidance on how to not be in despair, but to have hope and clarity and this video showed up on my feed. Dan it's not the riches, the cars or anything material that spoke to me: it was the question you ask yourself every day "How can I appreciate even more God's grace and guidance in this moment?" That was the greatest treasure.

I'm retired at 27, went from Grace to Grace. This video here reminds me of my transformation from a nobody to good home, honest wife and 35k biweekly and a good daughter full of love

I'm 44 years old. $115K monthly and I'm retired. This video has inspired me greatly in many ways that I remember my past of how I struggled with many things in life to be where I am today!!!!

Just finished reading Buy Back Your Time. One of the best books I’ve read. Gold, just like this video!

Thanks Dan!

It’s simple, Dan Martel posts a new video. I click lol. Happy new years yall 👍🏻

My first moments of 2025 were spent learning these lessons. Thank you Dan for the love and knowledge you put out. Your teachings have truly driven so much personal development for others and myself.

One of the lessons that has really stuck with me is the FEAR acronym you use. (False Evidence Appearing Real)… like yes! That is so true! Our own baseline beliefs limit our awesomeness!

If you’re reading this and looking forward to an amazing future, I believe in you! Create that workspace, get in the zone, and just do it!

Glory!!! After so much struggle I now own a new house with a monthly profit margin of $250, 000. Thank you Lord Jesus for the gift of life and blessings to me and my family, Our lord Jesus have lifted up my Life!!!🙏❤️❤️

The principle about using fear as a compass really hit home for me—such a powerful reminder to step outside of our comfort zones. Thank you for sharing these actionable insights and life-changing lessons!

[TatiannaSpencer]

Slightly nuanced, I believe that discomfort is my guide. I agree that this is where your identity stretches! Principle 1 is my New Year’s resolution. Thank you for this content!

Dan, I appreciate you putting this out. I've been thinking about what to focus on in 2025. I know laser focus is so helpful in business. I was just challenged in church this week to "Resolve to Prioritize Action". Information that is not used can be harmful. I wanted something specific that I could focus towards application in my life. These 15 principles hit home and I have chosen to implement these into my life and business this year. There's so much good stuff. I'm making notes on one day at a time, sharing it, and focussing on that principle each day, then I will keep going back to these throughout the year. It's a firehose of good stuff! Thank you, Dan!

Consistency and focus – this is what successful journeys are built on!

[Ankit_Gupta]

Thank you, Dan, for such a transformative video! The 15 life-changing thoughts you shared—like buying back your time, defining your why, and the 'learn, do, teach' approach—are pure gold. Your insights have not only shifted my mindset but also inspired me to take actionable steps toward living a more intentional and fulfilling life. This is more than just advice—it's a roadmap for success and purpose. Grateful for your wisdom and the value you bring to your audience.

3. Cold showers
