@kimmonismus It comes from the masses not the niche, it wasnโt those who pop it in the CLI, it the app users. People started noticing how Claudeโs writting skills were just so much better than GPT at the time + other stuff like the government contract they declined was a great PR stunt.
I spent years trying to make clients want it more.
Worked for about three weeks every time, then life got loud and the motivation burned out.
So I quit doing that, ow I change what surrounds them instead.
That's the part that actually holds.
Motivation is a guest, environment is the house.
One shows up when it feels like it, the other votes on your behavior every hour of every day.
Build the house.
The guy running Meta handed his training plan to a coach so he'd never have to decide what to do at the gym.
Smartest move he made.
What's the real reason you haven't, the time, or the deciding?
"I don't have time to train" is the most expensive lie in tech.
Zuckerberg won gold and silver at his first BJJ tournament while running Meta. He said the training gives him MORE energy and focus for work.
Training isn't a competitor for your time, it's what makes your time work.
Mark Zuckerberg runs Meta and has two jiu-jitsu medals.
He didn't find more time.
He found a sport and a coach, and let them run in the background.
The busiest people don't out-schedule fitness, they install it once.
A client ranked his pains for me last week.
He put "energy crash" at the top. and said the belly was just vanity.
Three weeks in, the crash is gone AND the belly's moving. With the same protocol, he was never picking between them.
They were always the same problem wearing different clothes.
The belly, the crash, the lost strength, the clothes.
Men treat them like four problems.
They're four symptoms of one root, fix the root and all four move.
What's costing you the most right now?
๐ The belly that won't move
๐ The 3 PM energy crash
๐ Strength I used to have
๐ Clothes that don't fit
(Mention the one you'd pay to fix first.)
You eat a decent lunch and still hit a crash at 3pm.
You blame the workload or your age, or "just being tired."
What if it's the order you put the food on the fork?
What time does your crash actually hit, 2, 3, or 4?
The order you eat your lunch decides your afternoon:
1. Vegetables and fiber first
2. Protein and fat second
3. Starch and sugar last
4. Never eat carbs naked and first
Same meal, reordered. The 3 PM crash gets quiet by Friday.
Guys that say "I have no drive anymore" aren't lazy, hear me out...
They're running a dopamine baseline that's been scraped flat by 11 hours of screens and 6 hours or less of sleep.
You can't feel motivated on a depleted reward system, you rebuild it with boring inputs, not bigger goals.
What's the one cheap dopamine hit you'd quit first if you knew it was keeping you stuck?
@ezgicodes@Rustlelang Itโs a very valid argument actually, but youโre taking the emotional side of it, how it makes you feel. Canโt blame you though, youโre just a female.
