The Difference in the 2% and the 98% is Widening

Takeaway from today’s show is you need to be up to speed on using AI to your maximum advantage .In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly talk about how the difference is widening between the 2% in the 98%. And there’s two factors at play here. The first is artificial intelligence. The people who understand how to use products like chat GPT and Claude adeptly are very definitely at a competitive advantage.

John mentions that his competency today as an intelligent functioning human being is substantially greater today than it was nine months ago. He can see things that he couldn’t see before because he was constrained by the four corners of his own mind. But by using AI, he can see things he couldn’t see before. And that’s critical because success comes down to one’s daily actions. Both doing them consistently and identifying the right actions to take. AI allows you to better see the right actions to take.

The second factor in the separation between the 98% and the 2% is a concept of advanced leadership of self. The vast majority of the 98% are simply winging life. They don’t have a way of leading themselves. They just get up each day and do the best they can. But the 2%, a large percentage of them have an actual way of doing life. During this podcast John shows our audience how using AI can make you see the right actions to take in your career. He uses the example of his current three year goal and the milestones to get there. Watch during this podcast how AI expands John’s thinking and understanding.

About the Hosts:

John Mitchell

John’s story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn’t as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there’s a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.

When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.

His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.

John’s technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas’ McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.
