It is hard to win when you don’t know the rules of the game
Tim Farris registered for the Chinese national kickboxing championship on a dare. The competition was four weeks later. He defeated all of his opponents and won the title of Chinese National Kickboxing Champion with only four weeks of training. If you are anything like me, you are wondering, how did he do that? He did not have more training than the other competitors. Some of the competitors had been training their whole lives. Could he be the best kicker and puncher ever to compete in the east? Unlikely. Perhaps the best physical discipline and condition… you remember the part about four weeks of training, right?

So, how on earth did he join and win the title of Chinese National Kickboxing Champion with four weeks of preparation? Simple, he did it the same way that thousands of Americans are now winning with their money and retiring from corporate America in their 30s.

The Rules of the Game

He studied the rules of the game. He simply found a couple of opportunities to succeed built into the rules of the game that he could exploit to his advantage. They were there in plain sight for anyone to see but no one was exploiting these techniques. Everyone else in the completion was trying to fit in more than win. They were trying to honor traditional knowledge and form not winning by any means the rules allow.

Tim won by exploiting two little-recognized rules. The first was that the weigh-in was the day before the competition. So, he could drastically cut weight and dehydrate before weigh-in day then rehydrate back up to a more normal weight. Second, he found a rule that if you knock your opponent out of the circle 3 times they are disqualified and you win. He didn’t have to knock them out just off-balance them when they got close to the line. By focusing on a couple of simple techniques built into the rules he was able to win. You don’t change the game by playing the game harder you change the game by playing differently than everyone before you.

The American economy and tax laws have similar rules built in that when you utilize them in an international way they allow you to champion your personal finance and win with your money. You are about to discover a counter-intuitive and counter-cultural paradigm for building wealth, with less risk, less stress, less learning curve, fewer barriers to entry and opportunities for much greater success?
