Design Your Destiny: Get Paid What You Desire Every Time

This is how the top 1% get paid what they truly deserve

What is common between Shah Rukh Khan, A. R. Rahman & Rohit Sharma?

If you're not an Indian/ not interested in the world of cinema, let me introduce these 3 personalities to you in a jiffy.

Shah Rukh Khan is one of the biggest superstars of India, often referred to as the "king of the Hindi movie industry" by the media

A. R. Rahman is a gifted musician who's created timeless classics and has also won Oscars among hundreds (if not thousands) of other accolades

Rohit Sharma is an international cricketer. He was the captain of the Indian Cricket team in 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup, which India happened to win.

So, there are no "obvious" similarities between these 3 icons.

However, look closely and you will see the commonality hidden in plain sight.

In fact, the person earning the highest amount of money in your company shares the exact same trait.

For that matter of fact, EVERY high paying professional in the world, shares the exact same trait in the world.

Confused?

Don't be.

This common trait is absolutely flawless hold and mastery in their respective skillset.

Look closer and you will observe this is the only fabric that binds mavericks in every company/ industry around the world is their grip on their skillset/ subject matter.

Of course there are going to be some prodigies, some outliers and some people who reach to the top due to factors like nepotism, but you have two choices:

01. Focus on the case studies of the top 95% people who seem to share a common DNA of success.

OR

02. Focus on the 5% who got there by luck/ fluke/ chance/ nepotism.

Something tells me, if you were the kind who would focus on the latter, you wouldn't have reached till this point of the note to begin with.

So, now is your turn to introspect and figure all the gap areas that are stopping you from unleashing your true and limitless potential.

Get started on bridging the gap and see how your life, relationships, health, career and every other aspect of your life keeps upgrading one step at a time.

There are no secrets to success. Just constant refining of your skillsets which comes with relentless practice and consistency of your efforts.
