THE PRESTIGE: THE UNSCRIPTED MAGIC
I
n Christopher Nolan’s 2011 movie, 
The Prestige
, a magic trick has three parts:
the pledge, the turn, and the prestige. The pledge is the audience offer: a deck of
cards or an empty box. The turn is where something extraordinary is done with
the pledge. However, the prestige is the hardest: it’s doing something
extraordinary on top of the extraordinary while leaving the audience
dumbfounded about how you did it.
UNSCRIPTED
magic is similar. Your business is the pledge. Your business’s
value given to the world is the turn. And the difficult prestige? It’s managing the
rewards of your business. It’s doing the extraordinary when extraordinary
happens.
Give the average paycheck-to-paycheck American $1 million, and after three
years, they’ll be back where they started: broke. Some will need only one year.
Ever wonder how lottery winners always lose their winnings? The missing
element in the riches-to-rags tales is the prestige: 
discipline
. Making money is
hard; keeping it is harder.
The 
UNSCRIPTED
preamble, the final union represented by the upmost
triangle, 4(D), in the 
UNSCRIPTED
Entrepreneurial Framework is discipline: the

---

tricky trick of getting to the prestige and staying there. Discipline completes the
UNSCRIPTED
penta-union, joining with belief, meaning, and an executed
CENTS strategy. Once you accomplish a scaling productocracy, the four
disciplines finalize the difference between lifelong 
UNSCRIPTION
and fleeting
success. They are:
1.
Comparative Immunity
2.
Purposed Saving
3.
Measured Elevation
4.
Consequential Thought
Like the prestige, the four disciplines are silently invisible, but they are as
important to 
UNSCRIPTED
as an offensive line is to a quarterback. Disregard
any of them and one day you might be living large and the next, well, back to
mowing lawns at the golf course.

COMPARATIVE IMMUNITY:
WELL-DRESSED SLAVES
ARE STILL SLAVES
Materialism is the only form of distraction from true bliss.
