Introduction: My Darkest Days
In 2016, I hit rock bottom.
- My mom was in a coma after a life-threatening accident.
- My brother struggled with severe drug addiction.
- I lived with an abusive, alcoholic stepdad.
- I had $0, no direction, and no hope.
But deep down, I knew I was meant for more.
Fast forward to today—I’ve built multiple 7-figure businesses, mentored thousands, and created a life I once only dreamed of.
This is the exact 5-phase blueprint I used to go from broke to millionaire in under a year.
If you’re ready to reinvent yourself, make serious money, and escape the 9-to-5 grind, this post will show you how.
Phase 1: Recreate Yourself (Identity Hacking)
Your current reality is a reflection of your identity.
If you see yourself as “broke” or “struggling,” your actions (and results) will match. To change your life, you must first change who you believe you are.
Step 1: Create a Vision Board
Most people dismiss this as “woo-woo,” but your mind is a heat-seeking missile. If you don’t define your target, you’ll drift aimlessly.
Your vision board must include:
✅ The exact income you want
✅ The car you’ll drive
✅ The house you’ll live in
✅ The clothes you’ll wear
✅ The energy you’ll radiate
Example: My vision board in 2020 had “$122,344 in my bank account by June 3rd.” I hit it to the dollar.
Step 2: Daily Affirmations
Every morning, I wrote:
- “I am a millionaire.”
- “Money flows to me effortlessly.”
- “I am in complete control of my life.”
Why this works: Your subconscious rewires to match your words.
Step 3: Dopamine Detox
You’re addicted to distraction (social media, junk food, porn, Netflix).
My 7-day detox protocol:
- Only ate steak and eggs
- No music, TV, or social media
- Read 50+ pages/day
- Cold showers only
Result? Clarity, discipline, and unstoppable focus.
Phase 2: Pick Your Money Vehicle
You need a proven, scalable way to make money fast. In 2025, the two best options are:
Option 1: TikTok Shop Affiliate (Easiest $10K/Month)
- How it works: Promote products on TikTok, earn 30–50% commissions per sale.
- Example: Daisy Cabral made $492,000 in one month just by livestreaming products.
- Best part: No inventory, no ads—just your phone.
Option 2: Dropshipping (Long-Term Wealth)
- How it works: Sell trending products online, scale with ads.
- Pros: Teaches real business skills (marketing, hiring, taxes).
- Cons: Slower start (but higher ceiling).
Free Resource: I built a software that creates a winning dropshipping store for you—get it here.
Phase 3: The Lock-In (Sacrifice Everything)
This is where most people fail.
Rules for the next 3–6 months:
- Set a terrifying money goal (e.g., “$50K/month by December”).
- Cut off distractions (friends, parties, TV).
- Work 12+ hours/day.
Mindset Shift:
“You need 100% engine power to take off. Once you’re in the air, you can cruise at 30%.”
I lived in complete isolation during this phase. No excuses.
Phase 4: Build a Personal Brand
Why?
- Your brand = your “digital resume.”
- Opens doors to sponsorships, courses, and scaling.
How to start:
- Document your journey (even if you’re at $0).
- Post daily on TikTok/Instagram.
- Create a course or community (my free course makes $300K/month).
Key Insight:
“People don’t follow experts—they follow people who are 2 steps ahead.”
Phase 5: Realign With Purpose
Once you hit your first million:
- Revisit your vision board. Who are you now?
- Pivot to passion projects (I launched an energy drink brand).
- Repeat the cycle.
Life is seasons: Growth → Success → Reinvention.

I went from $0 to millions—you can too.
