Probably the simplest way to be successful is to model someone who has already done what you want to do.
Case in point…
I’m reading a book right now called “Richer, Wiser, Happier” that is all about the greatest investors in history.
So there’s a chapter on Warren Buffett…
A chapter on John Templeton…
A chapter on Joel Greenblatt…
All of the big names you’d expect to find in a book like this.
However, one of the guys there’s a chapter on is someone I’ve never heard of.
Mohnish Pabrai.
When I got to his chapter, I discovered that from 2000-2018 his hedgefund returned a staggering 1204% (versus 159% for the S&P).
So he crushed the market…
And obviously knows what he’s doing.
However the most interesting thing about Mohnish isn’t his returns.
The most interesting thing about him is that none of his strategies and ideas are original.
Why?
Because he has cloned his entire hedgefund off Warren Buffet.
And when I say cloned, I truly mean cloned…
He charged the same fees as Buffet did when he started out.
He uses the same methodology as Buffet does to pick stocks and evaluate companies.
He even makes sure he has no employees in his office so he can sit in peace and just read reports all day long (similar to Buffet).
And what’s really interesting is that Mohnish has no reservations about this.
He is unabashedly proud that he has cloned everything in Buffett’s life as close as he can.
He doesn’t care about having his own original ideas…
Or coming up with a new investing method that will make him famous.
He simply wants results.
And by cloning Buffet he’s been able to get pretty amazing results.
Personally I loved reading Mohnish’s story…
Cause it echoes a lot of what I teach.
The fastest way to become a great copywriter…
Or to create a winning offer…
Is to simply model someone else who has done it.
So if you know for a fact that people have gotten really good at copy by writing for an hour a day and getting feedback on their writing, then you should do that.
Or if you know that a successful offer has a $39 price point and then a $97 upsell price, then you should do that as well.
If the blueprint has already been created by someone else, why waste time trying to figure it out on your own?
Simply model what they did…
And you’ll get there a lot faster (and with a lot less headaches).
This is one of those ideas that is SO simple…
But most people never do it.
However I believe it’s the fastest way to get where you want to go.
So just like Mohnish did with Warren Buffet, you’d be wise to model what’s already working.
That’s my 2 cents…
Alright that’s all I got for ya today.
Enjoy your Tuesday
