Secret Pathway To Triumph is so unique. I can’t believe I hadn’t heard about it sooner. It’s amazing how life-changing this can be.

The concept of Secret Pathway To Triumph blew my mind. It’s like finding a cheat code for financial abundance.

It's nice to see that he talked about this topic which is very relevant right now. I hope he would be proud of the book Achieve Your Dreams on Lexnory. No one knows who wrote the book, but the content is incredible.

You forgot the most important of the high income skills: marketing.
Without being able to market yourself to businesses you can be a genius in all of these other skills but you won't even be seen; you have to be able to put yourself out there first.

Having the skills is really important, but you also need to have proper motivation and proper strategy. Thankfully, this year I started my dropshipping business, and honestly it was really tough in the beginning. But patience and hard work (with a bit of winnerzila) is key to success!!

Hey Ali, your take on boosting income as a student is so on point! Learning high-income skills not only changes the financial game but also adds so much value to our journey. Keep the awesome advice coming!

Greetings from Hungary from 2 psychology students. We also started a Youtube channel and your inspiration just makes us better!

[robopecha]

it is crazy to me that nowadays you can learn all those skills while you are still going to school. just the fact that you can make lots of money with something you just picked up from youtube! what a time to be a young person. i spent the last years learning fashion design, web development and coding, but as a person in my 40s people find it harder to believe that i am good at something i just learned.

Having the skills is important… but more important, you've to be able to sell them… and before that, the most important is to be able to find clients/prospects. I would love to ear you on that. Especially when you start from zero (no background, no portfolio, no network, no audience). …And if you don't want to spend years building that as this is not at all what you want to do, if it must be just a quick temporary way of getting money (assuming you have the skills).

Dear Ali and team, what a nicely arranged video: I love the color-scheme, the scribble-technic, and the many mini-advertisements for "THE book". Very cool. :-)

[philosophy_of_maths]

Amazing video as always! What app do you use to make the overlay of yourself(self video capturing) on top of the video?

[EdgarDiazSpeaks]

I haven’t been a student for a couple years but always appreciate the solid advice, Ali!

Over the past 10-15 years, I've been building a bunch of high value skills (I didn't realize throughout this time... I was just following skills that interested me).

Marketing (email, organic and FB/IG ads), project management, online business operations (including some popular software programs like Asana, Canva, Convertkit, ActiveCampaign), graphic design, copywriting.

It takes time to learn and practice these, but now I work from home part-time and get the same income as if I was working full time locally.

And I can now use these skills to build something for myself.

It's never a bad idea to learn any/all of these skills. Even if you aren't an expert in one of them, but you know a good amount of each, you will do great and get paid really well!

After a whole day of coding, it's time to relax and watch an Ali's video

[unzillaahmed]

There's always so much value in your videos. Thank you once again Ali ❤

[BrunoMCDowell]

Awesome video. I am self-taught Software Developer in the UK and I love what I do. Glad you mentioned developers in the video as one of the high income skills. What most developers including myself struggle with is coming up with good and valuable product ideas.

[FaisalWaseem]

When I got notification of your this new financial video I just jumped so high in excitement in my parents apartment 😂 love you bro 🖤

[Sundji]

My question would be, how do you build skills while you're struggling to meet your daily needs. I'm a college dropout (I have 117 credits and I plan to finish) and right now, my rent alone is 60% of my income and that's the cheapest I could find within commute distance of my job. Luckily, I have affordable housing lined up but for the past few years, affording to take care of myself has been such a struggle that I don't feel like I have the bandwidth to branch out and do anything else. I've tried to teach myself various skills like music production, coding, graphic design, marketing, writing etc. because those are things that actually excite me but literally just surviving takes up so much of my attention that I haven't made very much progress on any of those skills. I know you'll probably say that I should focus on one skill. I will try to bunker down but I have ADHD and that makes it hard to stay interested/motivated in a single topic consistently. Whenever things get hard financially, which is typically once per quarter, I find that any type of attention I have for gaining skills goes out the window. It's already hard enough for me to keep up with daily chores, like groceries, cooking, laundry, and cleaning. I'm working to make these things routine but the ADHD makes it very draining to do chores. What would be your suggestion for balancing all these things in a way that gives me a decent level of progress and feedback which I definitely need to stay motivated.
