He shows abundance of gold to attract a crowd
He offers to sell them the map
His gold was made by selling maps
He offers to sell them the map
His gold was made by selling maps
These maps lead to nothing
...but if the crowd arrives at nothing he will be caught & out of business
He leverages complexity
Multiple paths on the map, contradictions, variations
He masks this complexity as a selling point
Giving the illusion of more freedom & options

He leverages complexity
Multiple paths on the map, contradictions, variations
He masks this complexity as a selling point
Giving the illusion of more freedom & options
This illusion keeps the act alive
Instead of arriving at nothing
The followers are constantly on the move but never arriving anywhere

His map is merely theories, he's never walked the path
He leads from the back not the front
The followers like guinea pigs get slaughtered

He leads from the back not the front
The followers like guinea pigs get slaughtered
As he remains safe, hiding in the back
Hiding in the back he is not a leader

He'll sell you "how to achieve"
...but what has he achieved?
He followed a trend, supplying a demand

He'll sell you "how to achieve"
...but what has he achieved?
He followed a trend, supplying a demand
People in a vulnerable position hand over money for solutions to their problems
He sees this demand
He begins to research & supply 'maps'
These maps he had never walked
The blind leading the blind
But he is not even leading. He is following the demand

Catastrophic for those in a vulnerable position seeking guidance
If he attracts with gold ask what achievements led him to that gold
Better yet, seek out who lead from the front
Their achievements, stories of the achievement, evidence
Not the gold

Their achievements, stories of the achievement, evidence
Not the gold
People leading from the front sharing the map they actually walked and/or still currently walk
This is who to listen to
They don't attract with gold
They don't sell pipe dreams & smoke
They're harder to find
Some not even selling a map

I believe who to listen to is the most important thing
You're only as good as your plan, your map, your strategy

Making the journey 10x harder
