Become the best at what you do—become a top performer
It’s an incredible experience to meet people who are at the top of their game. These people love what they do. Their work is interesting and creative. They pick their own projects. And, they often out earn their peers 2-10x.
Look at Ben. He isn’t one of those standard struggling programmers. Ben is a top performer.
Ben chooses his clients. He’s not hustling for his next job. Ben charges hundreds of dollars per hour, and people don’t haggle with him over his prices.
Ben can work from a far-away tropical beach, but he chooses not to. He told us that if he ever wanted to, he could work for three months of the year and take the remaining nine months off.
Ben works on his own terms.
A rewarding career comes from mastering rare and valuable skills
Luck won’t land you the perfect job. Knowing the right people isn’t enough. To have a great career, you need to excel at skills that are uncommon and in-demand.
Alex is a successful television scriptwriter profiled by Cal. Success in Alex’s industry is notoriously difficult. To make it, he committed to getting good at the one thing his research told him mattered: writing quality.
Like an athlete in training, Alex set up a sequence of opportunities that forced him to improve. After a few short years, he accomplished what most only dream of—becoming a staff writer and going on to co-create his own show.
Television writing may not be your line of work, but the laws of success are the same.
Success with rare and valuable skills isn’t linear—it’s exponential
Top performers get outsized rewards because they return 10x value compared to their mediocre peers. One study found that the most productive programmers weren’t just a little better—they were often 10x more valuable to a company than mediocre ones.
Consider the example of Juan Diego Florez. Florez is an operatic tenor, and he’s quite good. He can command five figures for a performance.
But just a little better, perhaps by an amount almost unnoticeable to an untrained ear, is Luciano Pavarotti—who at the time of his death was worth almost a half-billion dollars.
