I’m not their yet but I’m following Justin’s lead.
I’m still trying to optimize my life to be more focused on lifestyle instead of income. He had like 2–3 weeks free without a single appointment. I remember last year I was trying to jump on a call with Justin. Their calendars are full of appointments. They want cameras and PR companies at their feet begging for their time.Īnd most successful people are stupidly busy. So many people want to build big businesses to tell everyone about them. He optimizes his business and income for freedom instead of status or being rich.
Justin isn’t interested in fame, being an influencer, making $200m a year, taking selfies, making it on some rich list, driving a Lambo, disrupting an industry, meeting Mark Zuckerberg, or building a unicorn company like Stripe.Īll he wants to do is build a tiny online business that he can build his lifestyle around. What struck me was how he interacted with me. Justin was generous with his time and gave me a lot of good tips I’d never of come across. So someone like me should pay attention.Īt the start of his journey we connected. Yet in a few short years he’s built a $2.5m a year business from writing a few short posts every day. I started writing on LinkedIn before Justin. The biggest lesson I learned from Justin Welsh He’s the definition of a “quiet millionaire.” I’ve had a few interactions with him over the years. I’ve always been attracted to introverts and those who go about their business quietly, especially when it comes to money.Ībout 3 years ago, I came across a man named Justin Welsh.
