If you’re new to my channel, my name is Alex Hormozi. I’m the founder and managing partner of Acquisition.com. It’s a family office, which is just a formal way of saying we invest our own money into companies. Our 10 portfolio companies bring in over $200,000,000+ per year. Our ownership stake varies between 20% and 100% of them. Given this is a YT channel, and anyone can claim anything, I’ll give you some stuff you can google to verify below.
How I got here…
21: Graduated Vanderbitl in 3 years Magna Cum Laude, and took a fancy consulting job.
23 yrs old: Left my fancy consulting job to start a business (a gym).
24 yrs old: Opened 5 gym locations.
26 yrs old: Closed down 6th gym. Lost everything.
26 yrs old: Got back to launching gyms (launched 33). Then, lost everything for a 2nd time.
26 yrs old: In desperation, started licensing model as a hail mary. It worked.
27 yrs old: "Gym Launch" does $3M profit the next 6 months. Then $17M profit next 12 months.
28 yrs old: Started Prestige Labs. $20M the first year.
29 yrs old: Launched ALAN, a software company for agencies to work leads for customers. Scaled to $1.7mmo within 6 months.
31 yrs old: Sold 75% of UseAlan to a strategic buyer in an all stock deal.
31 yrs old: Sold 66% of Gym Launch & Prestige Labs at $46.2M valuation in all-cash deal to American Pacific Group. (you can google it)
31 yrs old: Started our family office Acquisition.com. We invest and scale companies using the $42M in distributions we had taken + the cash from the $46.2M exit.
32 yrs old: Started making free content showing how we grow companies to make real business education accessible to everyone (and) to attract business owners to invest or scale their businesses.
34 yrs old: I became co-owner of Skool.com to help the many people who want to start a business online do so.
Today: Our portfolio now does $200M/yr between 10 companies. The largest doing $100M/yr the smallest doing $5M per year. Our ownership varies between 20% and 100% ownership of the companies. Many of them we invested in early and helped grow (which is how we make our money - not youtube videos).
To all the gladiators in the arena, we’re all in the middle of writing our own stories. The worse the monsters, the more epic the story.
You either get an epic outcome or an epic story. Both mean you win.
Keep crushing. May your desires be greater than your obstacles.
Never quit,
Alex
FULL DISCLOSURE
I make content to make money - just - on a longer time horizon than most. I want to build trust with business owners so we can find the best ones and help them scale. And if they’re awesome, write them a check and go all the way as partners.
I’ve watched hours of this guy’s teaching. I think his main theme is: business is just a long boring list of obvious things, success is doing them.
Thanks for summarizing

Keep shoveling the shit
Spot on💯
Boom.
I really liked the phrase: Hard times are opportunities to give yourself proof that even this couldn't stop you.
yeah that was fire

"Sometimes you have to make a bet and be willing to be wrong, knowing that if you make no bet you're guaranteed to be wrong." - Alex Hormozi
That’s Zuck’s quote:
“The only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is taking no risks."
-Mark Zuckerberg
Every venture I’ve ever lauched was ultimatley: “Should I be doing this and if I do will it work?"
@@GorzaanFan- Taking no risks is not failure, it's simple taking no risks. It is better to plan and test so you increase your success and reduce any risk associated with your venture.
Cant believe after 10 years we are going to look back and feel nostalgia for alex’s guides
I believe it ! Man’s a ledge down, watching this for the second time !
In ten years we will be watching who ever is big and putting out a lot of great content. Or we will just be asking an ai. Do you have nestalgia for Tai Lopez material.
I like Alex . He has his money from his core business.
Think in Hundreds.

"Compare yourself to the person you genuinely want to become." Alex Hormozi This was such a fantastic quote to live by, ripe with spiritual wisdom. Very good. Love this! Definitely wrote that one down.

Thank you!!!

Bro is this ai generated? You took random sentences out of the video, it’s not what any of his points were about
Thank you
My grandfather (who is no longer alive) left me a few quotes that I have stuck to. 1) "The world will never stop being the world." 2) "Life is beautiful. You just have to know how to live it." and 3) "Don't be lazy. Work hard." They are simple yet profound. He raised 10 kids, worked in a factory, immigrated his children legally from a small village in Mexico into the US during the 1960s. He owned a car, 3 properties, and had the love and adoration of his children and grandchildren. I still sing about him to this day. As the Holy Bible says "Your reputation is more precious than jewels and rubies." And "Wisdom is nourishing to the soul like a good meal."
Your grandpa seems like an amazing man; I’m a newly father and I’d love to be remembered by my grandkids like how you remember yours. Thanks for sharing, man
@@yoasheva Im just gonna slip in some stuff. You should be a bit tough on your kids so they they can be stronger that the world. From my experience, I am a senior in highschool and although these kids are not completely weak, they could be way stronger. If your son is a male I advise that you reward this kid for doing physical challenges. What I am saying is please make sure your kid is active and strong.
One thing I wish my dad would do is actually assist me in fitness and strength. Promote your son when he is older to go to the gym, do sports and have a fun time doing so please. I am trying to get in shape but my family is a bit of an obstacle. Just help your kid get above the curve. Please thanks.
You can just say "my late grandfather" instead of saying "my grandfather (who is no longer alive)".
Was losing Hope with my business, but after applying some principles from Alex's book 100M leads, we tripled our revenue in 2 months at Mister General Contractor Inc. Alex is a life saver. You don't even know how many people's lives you have changed.
General contracting is tricky
Smart way of getting some exposure 😊
Nice job!👊
"You can feel terrible and still win"
I felt that one. I don't think I'm winning yet, still a lot of ground to cover. But I've been dealing with the most fucked up depression over the past few years yet I've still managed to start my business, hire some good people, retain those people, steadily outpace our monthly volume month after month. My family is good, I'm spending quality time with my wife and kids. I'm still working on feeling better but those accomplishments are helping.
You’re doing so good!
If you've accomplished those things even though you've been dealing with depression, just imagine what you could achieve when you are not depressed🤙🏻
@inf3cteddreams definitely! It comes and goes. I've found that it's more about managing it than it going away. Like building good habits and sticking to them regardless of how I'm feeling.
@@chekz3520 Exactly! It's about how you manage it. I don't know if you've ever listened to Ed Mylett's podcast.
It's his first episode "Morning rituals".
He describes that instead of discipline, we need good habits.
He says discipline is a fallacy in that sense that we can't always realt on discipline and we should first and foremost have good habits that we can all fall back on.
And that is what I hear you say, and it seems to have served you well brother.
So good for you, I'm really happy that you have found a way to keep going at it.
And as you say, accompliments is what keeps you on the right track.
So, I would say from what I hear is that you will be less and less depressed and hopefully not at all the more you persue your goals, as long as you've persuing the right goals for you.
If someday on the way you realize you are persuing the wrong goals, you now know how to keep going forward and all you have to do is just redirect from where you are.
You are successful, and you will be even more successful as you proceed.
Congratulations brother, I salute you💪
Keep maxing out 💯
Check hormones and such
There’s no such thing as being “on time”. You’re either EARLY or you’re LATE. When people talk about being “on time” that’s when the second hand hits 12. One second. So aim to be one second early or one second late. And then aim to be 10 minutes early or 10 minutes late.
Alex's nitty-gritty breakdowns of how the mechanics of charisma and other behaviors work is SO helpful. I wasn't socialized well as a kid, am possibly on the Autism spectrum, and no one ever told me how to break these behaviors down and understand what concepts like "charisma" entailed so I could learn them. This is the content I live for because I can actually use it, instead of other people's content which starts a step or two down the road from where I'm at.
Charisma on command is also a great channel on that subject!
Aye bro. I work in the HNW space with clients and have ADHD. I work great with clients but suck at team dynamics. I get angry, sad, excited and disappointed based on their emotions. I could never succeed. Just "care less and think about what the goal is". Every human is an emotional vortex. Being able to swim upstream is your success...
My son is autistic and the Hormozis’ content helps me break things down to help teach him, too! It’s amazing how hard it is to teach something you just “play by ear”. It helps refine my own skills, too, of course. What a contribution! ❤❤❤
I’m in your boat 100%
Ladies love my ch-arisma
I run education and interview coaching for students, ashamed to say this presentation is more clearly explained than some of my slides around motivation and desire! Working on that right now
I like you attitude when you realize you got a lot more to give. Way to go. !
I rarely or never comments on videos but Alex's videos are one of the best business gurus of today's generation. No bullshit, just straight up facts with alot of clarity.
Keep it up brother! And I wish everyone here nothing but success and happiness
Back at ya. Some day I hope you find success beyond success, happiness, and healthiness!🤘
This man is a world treasure, not just giving away incredible business advice but life advice as well 🙏🏽
One of the best videos ever. Way to go Alex. Some of your best teachings condensed into 45 minutes. Beautiful.
I love that you broken down confidence, charisma, intelligence into small sets of skills that can be learned. I am going to apply this framework to my business. You make learning fun and digestable. It is very useful especially people have shorter attention span now. Thank you bro. Keep it up!
I think I have an offer for you Raphael, let me trust you on this on
This is PRICELESS. I feel so privilleged to have a free access and I will be re-watching, sharing and DOING. Thank you Alex for your love and generosity!
Going to watch this multiple times but also take action on it. Literally operationalize EVERYTHING that I know I should do but for some reason not doing it. Clarity above all else. Thank you so much Alex for this one, it was the best presentation I've heard from you!
You're not doing it because you're not around anyone else who is doing it. Discipline doesn't exist lol change your friends and environment.
That's the same issue I've been facing for so long lol. Knowing what I should do but not doing it. Procrastination 🤦♂
you think you will do it, for a few minutes, but u won't, even if you do, the things you're working on have a 99.99% chance of not being very successful
Change your beliefs guys. They form your reality
@@australianpatriot rewatch the video, implement the action steps and you should be good to go. Remember the speed of change part
I totally agree with the charismatic part of the how. I grew up introvert and I am super self conscious. I don't do sales, but I have learned to be more social and be able to communicate. At times people think I am outgoing and extrovert. They think it comes easy to me. It wasn't but now I know how it feels to change and love what I do. My desire to be successful in what I do, is stronger than my fear to do the things that I might not like to do because they are hard. I have seen it help me become a better person. Thanks for sharing.
So many wisdom bombs dropped. Favorite takeaway is traits are just skills to be broken down to their smallest, actionable form. Take enough consistent actions by DOING it in an operationalized way -> desired results. Thank you Alex!
Alex is beyond amazing. wealth has no shortcuts, do this.
Always put your finances in good care to ensure Income rises. Wealthy people always acquire riches cause they seek the aid of finance pro(s) to make their goals possible
Better growth in finance is assured by varying my finance with the aid of my finance-pro. and has changed my life ever since.
sear ch the name , lf you care.
Rebecca Martin Watson.
l’m amazed to partake on this, it has rekindled the fire to my finance goal
Thank you Alex. I am making the to do list now, and will enjoy this "hard" feeling. Because this reminds me that I am on the right path.
this was definitely needed. My biggest take-away is operationalizing words. Take note of the actions and input of the outcome.
Im 30 y old from Poland living in ghetto since i remember, weed addiction, from 3 years I'm a different person thanks for people like him. No crimes no drugs just evolving. It's just beginning
It's crazy how good you can get on the algorithm. I hopped on UA-camr and blindly typed in the search bar "how to win" and bam, Alex already has a video out about it 2 months earlier. I wonder if it was some sort of global trend for a while. Genius strategy knowing what people want before they want it!
No one can beat this guy when it comes to proving the expectaional value to their audience, and I love how he make things simpler and easier :)
Amazing, I admire the way he puts complicated things into easy to learn formats. And he is so logical, you feel stupid even arguing with him. The way he tells you the solution without an attack as well, wow. Respect.
This is my fourth time watching this and it just came out..and I’m already making 7-figs. Watch this over and over again every morning until you hit your goals
The part where you were talking about the fallacy “I’ll do the thing when I have time” woke me up. I want multiple things now, but I’ve been waiting to do most of them for when I have more time. If I learn how to give everything I want to do the attention it deserves now, I will stick to it later
Bro thank you. Your content is life changing. Going through your books and content now. Just turned 25 and 2 years into business. I feel we will meet in 10years, and I will thank you again.
- your friend Ethan
I like how Alex breaks down charisma “smile, nodding, being nice, etc.”
I love how simple these concepts are! This man just keeps knocking out bangers
I love the way you think Alex. Thanks for sharing your wisdom with us. You are truly appreciated
The man! This was an awesome lesson. I'm so glad I was able to see it live
This was everything I needed. Thank you Alex for simplifying things. This is simply brilliant and I appreciate it and you. You have a way of identifying the obvious thus making it crazy to not act on the obvious. - 🌳
Wow. This is amazing Alex. Thank you so much.I have more to put into practice now
Exceptional Alex! You proces yourself an astonishing source of inspiration once again 👏✨
You’re the man Alex. I’ll see you at the top brother 🤙🏽
Clear, actionable and packed with knowledge. Thank you.
This was genuinely insightful. Thank you Alex for sharing it.
Alex reminding many of us what we already know however, I think him for the presentation because everyone needs a kick in the ass, an accountability partner, a refresher. Good content!
This is pure gold, Alex. Thank you so much!!!
This presentation was insanely valuable to watch. Thank you Alex❤
I subscribed to this guy when he was under 100k followers and now he is close to 2 million followers. That is insane! It has been only around 1 year.
Finished the video. Gonna get on my work right now.
Thank you, Alex.
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks Alex, I really learned allot from this one, 👏👏!
This man spoke for 47 minutes and gave so much value, absolutely insane
Thank you alex and im going to do and keep doing. Ill build mysself and my community into what it will become and I'll have you on my podcast
Rx
Good points on observable behaviors and tracking data. It's key to all your health and business goals!
Alex, a heartfelt thank you for all of the amazing content that you are sharing. Outstanding 👍
So this is what it's like to arrive early to an Alex Hormozi video. Incredible thumbnail. Incredible first 5 seconds of the video. God bless you, Alex. Keep going, brotha.
WOW.. .The things he says in this video are astonishing eye openers.
I was thinking to break it down as bullet points as a comment, but man - this video worth watching (at least twice) every second, with a pen and paper in hand!!!
What a presentation !!! ALEX for PRESIDENT!
I have Just started watching this and after about 5 minutes i realised this is one of the best podcasts ever.
Definitely watching this 10 more times.
why do that? It seems easier to me to just decide to "change your environment" 🤓
I'm on my third watch/listen.
one of the best talks ive seen in a while
Thank you so much for this Alex! Beyond grateful!
After hitting a 70k/mo, and starting over watching alex videos...
I can say this is one of my favorites.
Everyone on our team, from entry level guys to the leaders are rewatching and applying this.
What is your Profession man? 70k/mo is astronomical
that's what the Google CEO make in a day@@Milo-Mike
@13 mins "shake them, remember their hand"
😂 Break it down Barney style! Much appreciated!
I feel like there is so much information on the internet that its hard to understand basic things because everyone’s opinion varies but this presentation was so easy to understand and helped piece together some things that I didn’t realize I was doing to hinder my progression.
Highly recommend this one.
I agree
Hormozi greatest influencer out there, fucking love EVERY SINGLE video you post. Keep posting great content helping the future generations
I needed to hear this today as I was giving up on my business. But I have to change some bad behaviours and embrace change.
Such a killer video as always. Super easy to digest and love the talking points
Thank you Alex Hormozi for representing the mentor I need, and needed growing up.
What will see you through is not passion but the sense of deep connection to what you're meant to accomplish, to a sense of destiny in life. "This is what I'm meant to do. This is who I'm meant to be."
Thank you. Great for family relationships too
Thank you for the wisdom, Alex!
Great information Alex. Thanks for all you do.
As always , super educative. Like the way he gives definitions. Great !!

MAN THANK you this is imence value that you are giving for FREE , can't belive it how luck i'am to have acces to that kind of content
'im very gratefull for ervrything man
I’m poor atm but I refuse to stay that way, thank you Alex for all your hard work and content and sharing this with us. I will be applying all of your teachings and other successful entrepreneurs teachings to my own life. You’re a blessing. 💪🏼
It's time for you to do yours. Don't stay poor. Because here i'm struggling too. We're in this together. Let's beat and change our future if it's what actually needed.
I am going through an exclusive SBA program that teaches people to grow their businesses. The presentations are full of alot of fluff with very little meat.
The free and low ticket content that Alex is putting out is so far and away better in production, and quality than anything I've seen.
He is one of the best educators/presenters I've ever seen.
I AGREE
"He is one of the best educators/presenters I've ever seen". Oh dear, so naive. Who is Jim Rohn, Bob Proctor, Brian Tracy, Zig Zigler? They are on completely a different level of class and professionalism. Hormozi's book is very good though.
The fact this is free, is crazy. Thank you.
This is the best how to video I have ever watch on the internet!!!
This was a top tier lecture brought everything together beautifully felt like Ed mylett pod cast "45 min flew by!" 😂 Alex you a real one 🐐🙏
Fantastic lecture! Thank you!
Definition of Patience is worth appreciating.
Mmmmmm “our egos grow up but not our abilities” damn….. chills down my spine bro
Alex that point about breaking things down is very true. That’s how everything is done in the restaurant industry
It's fucking crazy how you present.
what a master piece. it's all about impressing the future self by doing what that self will do now.
you saved my life. can't thank you more.
Already halfway through my second watch of this. So much good info
I think this one is the one needed to change my life , thank you!
The biggest takeaway for me:
- Create my target self's checklist
- Start doing as many as possible
- Increase % of tasks completed
- Do consistently
Love it! Keep sharing the wealth
I love the way you teach with humor is amazing teachers should do this in school kids will be alot smarter out there to avoid being dumber😀. Good job Alex as always i enjoyed this and i am smarter now for sure🤝💯.
Appreciate your content is the never skip!
Good college professors actually do use humor. When the class is an enjoyable environment it's easier to learn
I needed this Alex. Thank you. 🙏
This advice is truly timeless
The best video it explain everything difficult in a very simple manner
I was hoping I would see this video one day. Thanks for sharing it for free 🎉
Thank you for the instagram post linking this video. Watched the full thing right away, on normal speed
Stellar video. If you really apply everything in that piece of content, things will change for the better 100%. Thank you Alex
Great presentation. Thank you Alex!
Holy shit that was a great talk!! Super insightful and actionable too! This guy has a way of breaking things down so well 🙌👏
Definitely one to rewatch with a notebook. Thanks for sharing this great content Alex and team! 🤙
