“I’m a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it.” — Thomas Jefferson
Ever bought a lottery ticket and started daydreaming?
“I’d buy a new car…”
“I’d take a big vacation…”
“I’d quit my job and live the good life…”
For a few minutes, you’re already living like you won.
But here’s the truth: You don’t need a lottery ticket to make that happen.
The Lottery Ticket Trick 🎟️
When you buy a lottery ticket, you automatically start thinking about what you’d do if you won.
You imagine your new house, your dream vacation, your amazing life.
But instead of hoping for .000001% odds, what if you spent 2 years building something that could actually make those dreams real?
The odds? Way better.
The 2-Year Freedom Ticket
Instead of wasting two bucks on a ticket with almost no chance of winning, try this instead:
🕒 Spend 2 years working toward a goal
🔍 Learn a skill or build a business
💪 Push through the hard parts without giving up
It’s not instant, but it’s way more likely to pay off than a lottery ticket ever will, and maybe it will take 3 years or even more, but it will happen way sooner than the powerball hitting!
Here’s How to Win for Real:
1️⃣ Picture Your Dream Life
→ Just like you imagine winning the lottery, picture what your life could look like if you built something that made real money.
2️⃣ Pay the Price (With Effort, Not Cash)
→ Your ‘ticket’ isn’t money — it’s doing the work. Commit to showing up every day for 2 years, and you’ll be way ahead of anyone still chasing luck.
3️⃣ Use Shortcuts That Actually Work
→ Don’t rely on “getting lucky.” Instead, build systems that make your work easier — like automating tasks, learning from experts, or building a team.
The Big Idea
Most people waste their money on tickets that won’t win.
Winners invest their time on things that WILL.
The “winning ticket” isn’t a piece of paper — it’s your decision to start now, put in the work, and keep going.
Bet on yourself. It’s the smartest gamble you’ll ever take.
