Prince Rahul's Key Ideas from The 10X Rule
by Grant Cardone

… is “setting targets that are 10 times larger than what you think it will take to achieve your original goal, and that you will need to do 10 times more action than what you thought you would need to do to achieve it.”

When setting goals, realize these things:

1. You are setting goals for YOU, no one else.
2. Anything is possible.
3. You have much more potential than you realize.
4. Success is your duty, obligation and responsibility.
5. There is no shortage of success.
6. Regardless of the size of the goal, it will require work.

• Do Nothing: It takes the same amount of work NOT to do something than it is to do something.
• Retreat: Retreaters retreat backwards with the excuse that they are trying to avoid failure.
• Normal: taking the necessary amount of action to be normal.
• Massive Action: Massive Action + The 10 X Rule = massive success.

• You must take big responsibility for every single thing in your life, even if it isn’t your fault.
• If you want to be successful, you need to give up excuses, and own up to everything you do or don’t do. It’s the ONLY way.

• Obsession is a great adjective for success.
• Excitement and obsession of your goals dominate thoughts and actions – it’s a requirement to get to 10x actions.

• Going all in and over-committing is better than under-committing to your goals.
• There are no shortages of how many times you can get up and continue.
• There is no failure unless you quit.
• It’s impossible for you to “use up” all of your energy or creativity. It’s impossible for you to run out of ideas.

• Keep adding fuel to the fire while you’re taking 10x actions and gaining traction.
• Keep staking the fire! There’s never too big of a fire.
• Newtons law of inertia: An object in motion continues in motion.
• Success demands constant attention – you can’t ever let it go and rest. Keep moving forward!
• Success is like a lawn – constantly needing watering, mowing trimming, etc..

• Fear is a sign that you’re doing something right and moving in the right direction.
• Most of the time, what you fear doesn’t even happen,
• FEAR = “False Events Appearing Real”
• Starve your fear by taking away it’s favorite food – time!

• Successful people aren’t “lucky,” it takes a lot of hard work for them to get where they are. It has to do with hard work and action.
• There are no overnight successes – success always comes as a result of earlier actions taken over a period of time.

The only way to increase time is to get more done in the time you have. Create a schedule so that you can get more things done with the time you have. Make sure to put your priorities first, so that they are always taken care of and you are being fulfilled.
