Business & management; Advice on careers & achieving success

Discover the tiny tweaks you can make to achieve big results

Have you ever noticed that there are certain people who seem to move up just a bit faster than everyone else? Those rare people who are always a bit ahead of the curve, get noticed a bit more, and achieve their goals a bit more quickly than the rest of us? And have you ever noticed how much this small edge makes a massive difference to the trajectory of their careers?

24-year-old entrepreneur Brian Wong is one of these people, having graduated from college by age 18, having raised $24 million in venture capital to start his own company before he turned 25, and having grown that company into a global mobile advertising giant in just 4 years.

His secret? The Cheat Code.

Wong believes that most people -- even creative people -- have a tendency to follow a script; to do things the way others do them simply because that way works. But therein lies the secret at the heart of the Cheat Code-

Anyone can easily shortcut his or her way to success, simply by going slightly off script; by doing things just a little differently from everyone else.

Here, Wong unlocks the power of the Cheat Code through 71 bite-sized and virtually effortless short-cuts you can use to get a leg up on the competition, get noticed, and accelerate your success. For example-

Cheat #7- Don't Ask - Announce Cheat #16- Know Your Superpower! Cheat #32- Make Boldness Your Genius

Cheat #47- Know Who's the Boss Cheat #55-

Focus on What Won't Change Cheat #71-

Imagine, What If?

No matter where you aspire to go in your life or career, THE CHEAT CODE will help get you there - faster.
