[0:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=4) You escape competition through authenticity by being your own self.

[0:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=10) If I had to summarize how to be successful in life in two words, I would just say productize yourself. That's it.

[0:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=17) Just figure out what it is that you naturally do that the world might want that you can scale up and turn into a product, and it'll be e- it'll, it'll eventually be effortless for you.

[0:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=27) Yes, it-- there's always work required, but it won't even feel like work to you.

[0:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=31) It'll feel like play to you. And modern society gives us that opportunity.

[0:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=36) You know, if you were 2,000 years ago, you're born on a farm, your choices are very limited, right?

[0:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=41) You're gonna do stuff on that farm. Now you can literally wake up and you can move to a different city.

[0:46](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=46) You can switch careers. You can switch jobs.

[0:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=48) You can change the people that you're with.

[0:50](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=50) Uh, you know, you can change so many things about who you are and who you're with and what you're doing that there is infinite opportunity out there for you, literally infinite.

[0:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=59) And so it's much better to treat this like a search function to find the people who need you the most, to find the work that needs you the most, to find the place you're best suited to be at, and it's worthwhile to spend time in that exploration before diving into exploitation.

[1:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=73) The biggest mistake in a world with so many choices is premature commitment.

[1:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=77) If you prematurely commit to being a lawyer or a doctor, and now you've got like, you know, five years invested into that, you might have just completely missed.

[1:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=85) You might just end up in the wrong profession, the wrong place, or the wrong people for 30 years of your life grinding away.

[1:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=90) And yes, the best time to figure that out was before, but the second best time is now.

[1:34](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/MyAqqO46KTlH/en/productize-yourself-find-success-through-authenticity?t=94) Yeah. So just change it
