We've all heard the advice: "Have a backup plan." It sounds smart. It feels safe. But what if your "Plan B" is the very thing preventing Plan A from ever happening? Let's talk about the "Backup Plan Effect." Researchers found that merely thinking through a Plan B reduces the desire to achieve the primary goal. This lower motivation translates directly into less effort and poorer performance. Your brain, in seeking the safety net, unconsciously downgrades the importance of the main mission. As Will Smith famously put it: ⏰ "There's no reason to have a plan B because it distracts from plan A."⏰ When you split your focus, you split your energy. You train your brain that "good enough" or "another option" is acceptable. Ambition gets diluted. So,❓How to Fortify Your Focus... Rewire for Plan A 🥳 The antidote isn't recklessness; it's unwavering neural commitment. You must strengthen your "Plan A" neural pathways. This is done through visualization and implementation intentions... that is, creating specific "if-then" plans for obstacles. For example: "If I feel overwhelmed, then I will review my single priority for the day and complete just that." This practice activates your brain's premotor cortex, making the steps toward your goal feel more automatic and solid when challenges arise. You're not avoiding thoughts of difficulty; you're programming your response to it, keeping you LOCKED on the primary target. You are either building a pathway to your goal, or you're building an exit ramp. Your brain can't fully commit to both. ❓What is your non-negotiable, all-in, no-backup-exits PLAN A right now? Comment it below. Declare it.👇 (Inspired by research on the "backup plan effect" from the University of Pennsylvania and Stanford.)

Please watch the Youtube video for the full hands-on tutorial. (These are her words) 1. Why Tiktok? I agree with Gary Vee on this one… 🤡Tiktok remains the #1 social platform in the world and the only platform where A SINGLE post can dramatically transform your life/business overnight.🤡 It's also the best platform for new creators because you don't get punished for posting multiple times per day. This means you can post multiple times daily, collecting the data you need faster to iterate on what's working. TikTok teaches you how to be a good creator faster than if you were to start on other platforms. Because you get more reps in. More feedback, faster. So you can double down on what’s working. And Tiktok does not care how many current followers you have. Every single post gets a fair shot at virality, even if you have ZERO followers today. 2. Which AI Tool Should I Use? It does NOT matter which AI tool you use. There is no right one. Honestly, you don’t need AI when you’re just starting out. 🤡The most important thing is consistency over a long time horizon. I don’t want to recommend any specific AI tool and imply it guarantees success.🤡 In my YouTube tutorial, I’ll show you how to use ChatGPT for free to help write hooks and scripts. But it is NOT a magic bullet. You must still put in the work, lots of trial and error, pushing through moments of self-doubt. However, I assure you it is 1000% worth it. My background is tech and I laughed off “influencer” stuff for a long time. But I was wrong. Creating content is an incredible source of leverage (for my own projects) and an incredible opportunity to serve/teach millions of people around the world. 3. But what if my audience isn’t on TikTok? I still encourage starting with TikTok even if you don’t think your audience is on it because of question #1 one above. 🤡 TikTok teaches you to be a good content creator faster than any other platform.🤡With that said, you’re probably mistaken believing nobody in your audience is on TikTok.

Title: EPIC EXECUTION Introduction: How Confidence Actually Works Most people think confidence is something you get first… then you act. That’s backwards. Confidence is something you build after action, when you collect evidence that you can do hard things. During the pandemic, a Spanish-speaking couple hired me, out of no where, to plan and decorate their wedding. It was a last minute wedding. A “small wedding” .. I mean they spent around $70,000 it was on a beautiful estate/golf club, is that small? Full coordination: vendors, timeline, decor planning & pressure, every last details.. I did everything. Here’s what’s wild: I hadn’t fully proven to myself how fluent my Spanish was. I could speak, sure. But “I can speak” is different from “I can lead a high-stakes event in Spanish and execute under pressure.” Dealing with the Bride!! and their parents in 100% Spanish etc. They eventually ended up thinking that I was Dominican. I’m not. I’m from Montréal. My first language is French. My parents are Haitian, so I learned Haitian Creole. I moved to Ontario and learned English. Spanish came later. All this to say that doing this wedding forced an identity shift: I am the kind of person who follows through. I didn’t “feel confident” first. I did the work and confidence showed up as a receipt. That is the energy of this book. If you’re an ambitious over-thinker trying to start a business, you don’t need another quote. You don’t need another course to collect. You don’t need clarity before you begin. You need an execution system that makes taking ACTION inevitable, so you can build one real offer validated by real humans, not gut feelings. That’s what you’re doing in the next 7 days. Chapter 1: The Contrarian Truth Here’s what I believe: I believe ambitious over-thinkers who want profit and freedom should design an execution system that makes action inevitable, not wait for motivation or clarity first. (more later maybe).. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sounds backwards, right? But.. Goals don't create results. Systems do. ** I have an ask, please follow me on Substack this post is expanded here: CLICK Method I will use to stop overthinking and start executing: STEP 1: Brain Dump Your Dream Life Grab a notebook. Not your phone. Paper. Write out EXACTLY what you want your future to look like. Every detail: - Where do you live? - What does your morning look like? - How much money hits your account? - Who's in your life? - How do you FEEL? Don't filter. Don't judge. Just write. 🧠 Why this works: Writing by hand activates your Reticular Activating System (RAS) — the part of your brain that filters reality. Once you define what you want, your brain starts spotting opportunities to get it. It's not magic. It's neuroscience. STEP 2: Break It Down (Reverse Engineer Your Future) Take that vision and chunk it: - 10 years: Where does this lead? - 1 year: What needs to happen this year to stay on track? - 90 days: What's the ONE focus for this quarter? - This week: What moves the needle? - Today: What are my 3 levers?' 🧠 Why this works: Your brain can't process "build a business." It CAN process "write my offer sentence today." Chunking reduces cognitive overload and turns dreams into doable. STEP 3: Identify Your 3 Daily Levers Every morning, ask yourself: "What are the 3 things I can do TODAY that will create ACTUAL progress?" Write them down. Not 10. Not 5. Three. These are your non-negotiables. Everything else is noise. 🧠 Why this works: Decision fatigue is real. By pre-deciding your 3 priorities, you save mental energy for execution instead of wasting it on "what should I do next?" STEP 4: Forget the Goals. Execute. Here's where most people mess up: They stare at the goal. They obsess over the gap. They get overwhelmed and freeze. Instead: Trust that your system is built. Now your only job is to show up and pull the 3 levers.
