The rules for making money in modern society are actually quite simple; with a clear path and principles, you will find that money comes like the wind—

This statement may seem like clickbait, but it's actually true:

1️⃣ Fundamental Logic:

You must understand this: the ability to make money is not about who is more versatile, but rather about who can be a more focused specialist!

1) Focus on one thing: Focus on what you are good at and excel at it!

2) Leverage: Use leverage (such as technology, capital, connections, etc.) to amplify your abilities or the impact of your product.

When contemplating this issue, I just saw an article shared by Lao Xue from Uncle Cai's public account "Please Debate" stating:

Making money means doing one thing well, exceptionally well, and then finding a way to amplify its power—this is a very straightforward mindset for making money, but many people do not do this, nor do they believe it.

Naval has also discussed this topic: "The creation of wealth in modern society comes from providing value that others need, so it's relatively simple. You can specialize in a certain skill or knowledge and then use some form of leverage (code, media, capital) to expand the value of that specialization. In the past, it was almost impossible, but now, as long as you are unique enough, you can be a media entity or a capital venture."

2️⃣ Focus and Excellence Plus Leverage:

So making money is quite simple; you must execute along the simplest logic. The more factors you add that you need to handle yourself, the further away you get from success, and the harder it becomes to replicate simply.

In simple terms, you need to create value through focus and excellence, and then earn money through some form of leveraged amplification.

From a methodological perspective, for example, if focusing on self-media writing and video production is your niche, then emerging industries (like AI or Crypto) or certain individuals who are willing to genuinely guide you are your leverage. The emerging industries are important because with the same effort, your opportunities and potential earnings can be hundreds of times greater than those in non-emerging industries. Additionally, having someone willing to guide you can save you ten years of detours, which is also very important!

So I say, as long as you enhance your unique skills and then utilize leverage effectively, it becomes quite easy to carve out a path; making money becomes a very natural thing!
