I talk about skill acquisition, sales, and handling uncertainty so you can leave the default path with a real plan.

A little over 1 year ago, I made a choice that cost me $50,000 in lost income.

I left a "stable" corporate career to learn how to sell, build, and eventually own something.

Most people think I'm crazy, maybe so. I finally see my life becoming something I'm excited about.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@Markmanson The only thing between me and the life I want is skill. Specifically my lack of it.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@sharran Easy to do business with = the client doesn't have to think about what you'll do next. Setting expectations and actually delivering is the underrated skill.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@ItsKieranDrew Both cost something. Inward compounds. Outward depletes.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@danmartell Distilled: just don't stop.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@Jayyanginspires You can't know what you want until you've chased some things you didn't. That's how you develop taste.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@Markmanson Year into a pivot. The 'no idea' part doesn't go away as quickly as you'd hope. It's been getting stronger.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@time2buildnow @garyvee Agreed. I try to study people's lives I want and lives I don't. From that lens, everyone gives you data.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@razvanfotia Looking back, the progress is easier to see. In the day-to-day it feels insignificant.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

I've worked to re-wire my beliefs over the years.
Scarcity has been the hardest.

Still wrestling with it daily.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@readswithravi Knowing it's time to leave is one thing. Sitting with that knowledge before you can act is another.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@EmailCopyJames Appreciate it. Already see life differently than I did a year ago. Wrestling through a new layer now.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@garyvee 30 doesn't feel like you have time. The micro is the only part you can control. Working to make it count.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@ChrisWillx Expansion happens at the edge of capacity. Redefining that edge takes courage every time.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@matt_gray_ You want to play games with invisible scoreboards. Harder. The wins are worth more if they come.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@readswithravi That's the place to be: the edge of your capacity.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@LewisHowes Play the cards in your hand. Right now.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@ChrisWillx @matthewhussey The roadmap to success is hard enough. The path to nervous system optimization is written in a foreign language on another planet.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@time2buildnow @garyvee My anti-vision is sharper than my vision. Past pain is easy to define. Future possibility is much harder to see.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

@Jayyanginspires Hard to accept praise after that. They’re seeing where you came from, not where you’ve seen yourself going.

[Connor @ConnorMit40]

I apply a standard to myself I'd never apply to anyone else. How do you balance giving yourself grace while knowing you're capable of more?
