Success does not take a year.

There are times in life when you feel like nothing is moving for you. You see your friends showing off their wins, how well they're doing. You go on social media and get blasted with people sharing their stories, making it seem like all you need is motivation to build the life you want — and just like that, you can become anything.

“You can become anything you want, as long as you want it.” I like to extend it — as long as you're also willing to put in the work for it.

I'm going to be blatantly honest with anyone reading this. Success does not take a year. It doesn't even take two years, or three. The universe might work in your favor and you could see huge returns within that time — but success takes long, built-up work. And that is what I want everyone between 20 and 35 to understand. You are still young, and you can be hugely successful if you give yourself the time and room to build and become exactly what you're meant to be.

And this is why 6 Months of You exists. Let everyone else go chasing the quick way to things — but you, give yourself that time. I can promise you this: by month six, you will be ten times better than all your friends who went chasing quick wins. You know why? Because there aren't any. They'll just keep stacking one quick thing on top of another, still chasing, right up to month six.

My name is Sam. I've spent six months building, twice.

The first time, I failed gracefully — all by myself. I spent a lot of time building what I imagined would change lives, and give me the life I wanted too, but it turned out I was wrong all along. I had the whole picture in my head, and I never thought about it from the user's point of view. I finished it, spent money on it, and by the first month after launch, I already knew it was a failure.

So I tried again. This time, building two businesses. In the first two months, the first business did more than 10x our projected revenue (with my co-founder), and the second business won its first client — worth €52,000 (also co-founded). This was possible because I carried the learnings and insights from that first six months into the second time I tried.

And that's exactly what we want to build with you. Notice something different between the two, aside from the wins? If you don't, that's fine — I'll show you, in the 6 Months of You cohort.

Listen — life opens up to those who open themselves up and focus on what they can become. I did not come from much. In fact, from nothing. I know you've heard this over and over again, but I mean it when I say this: you can become anything you want, as long as you're ready to put in the work required.

Let's do it together. Join 6 Months of You.
