The Cloning Method: Copying Successful People to Level Up
Discover the Cloning Method: a proven success strategy used by Warren Buffett and more. Learn how to copy your way to your dream life.


If you're trying to reinvent the wheel, you're probably going to give up before you even start.
What is the Cloning Method?
It's not about ripping off someone else's hard work or creating a knock off product.
It's about studying someone who has already achieved the same goal you are striving for.
In Short
Find an expert with your same life's goal and ask if you can assist them. Study what they do. Then do it too.
This is that secret weapon that has benefited some of the most successful people on this planet.
Warren Buffett Didn't Invent His Strategy
He cloned it.
Buffett credits most of his success to his mentor, Benjamin Graham.
Graham created a value investing method by buying undervalued companies with strong fundamentals. Buffett watched closely, took note, and followed it religiously early in his career.
Graham laid the groundwork. Buffett ran with it.
Now Warren is one of the richest people on Earth. Not because he was original, but because he followed what was proven to work.

This isn't just a finance thing.
- Kobe Bryant modeled his entire mindset after Michael Jordan.
- Rihanna took note from brands like Chanel and MAC to launch Fenty Beauty.
- Billie Eilish studied sound design and visual branding from artists like Lana Del Rey and Tyler, the Creator
These people didn't copy-and-paste.
They copy-and-improved.
