Obsess. For f*ck sakes. You only get one life. Don’t screw it up by being normal. Go all in. Act like a psycho. Let people call you insane. Please. I beg you. Obsession is the path.
Simply wanting to be top 0.01% and understanding the brutality you're going to incur on that journey if you're genuinely serious about getting to those heights will enable you to surpass 90% of individuals who have no ultimate purpose and nothing to suffer for
It’s only after we’ve lost everything we’re free to do anything, that scared middle ground between holding on & letting go will crush you over time
Burn the boats, needing nothing attracts everything - The freedom to build again with no rules is an indescribable feeling
No expectations, no authority, no opinions other than your own. Walk the lonely road for a while and your true personality emerges from the depths of trying to please everyone
The fear of losing something will only bring it closer to reality, trust me on this. Let the chips fall where they may & bet it all on yourself.
Be very intentional with the type of content you consume
We’re all just floating vessels waiting to be programmed, you gotta put the right energy in
My advice to anyone struggling to find an identity is don’t consume anymore content & make some moves
Wake up everyday and make things happen - make things you’re proud of and show em to the world
There’s a sense of satisfaction you get that money can’t buy
But It’s also how you get rich
It’s always gonna be me before anyone else, this was a lesson I learned the hard way
In order to truly provide for someone you gotta be deep in your craft - put on your own oxygen mask before helping anyone else
Same way you make something the audience loves - you make it for you
Making things you’re proud of gives you a sense of self worth, a gratifying feeling that’ll never lie to you
And when you share those things with the world - the responses people have will heal your soul
I gotta make leverage my number 1 priority
The combination of making things I'm proud of and the feedback I get is healing to my soul
It's what allows me to be me, what allows me to feel some sense of pride
I used to think I was building this in service, I realized I'm building it because I never wanna feel helpless again
I got a real mission here, to share my lessons I've learned with the world
And if just one person learns or appreciates it - this entire thing is worth it
Be very intentional with the type of content you consume
We’re all just floating vessels waiting to be programmed, you gotta put the right energy in
My advice to anyone struggling to find an identity is don’t consume anymore content & make some moves
Wake up everyday and make things happen - make things you’re proud of and show em to the world
There’s a sense of satisfaction you get that money can’t buy
It’s also how you get rich
The highest leverage use of my life is sharing the lessons I’ve learned with the world
Run it up, make mistakes & learn - then just spread the knowledge you gain
I’m in competition with nobody man, just living life the way I see fit
Just being authentic to myself
Live life as if there’s no audience in the arena
not enough people doing things for the love of the game anymore
too much money, status, politics involved
ultimately you should just do things cause you like doing things
It takes a special individual to achieve real greatness, an undying relentless ambition to force growth day in & day out.
It’s when you’re so deep into your craft the entire world sees you as “crazy” or “out of the norm” / there are no rules for making something great
The ability to smash head first into failures & have the strength to learn and grow
You gotta make things you’re truly proud of, that’s the only north star that’s ever worked for me
Relationships, art, sport - entrepreneurship
Don’t accept a lower standard than what you would offer to your future self
There’s a version of you that has everything you’ve ever wanted - all you gotta do is make them proud.
Life advice nobody told you: Having fun is the ultimate long-term competitive advantage. You can never bet against the person who just seems to have fun doing the work. When you’re having fun, you’re more likely to give your full attention and energy to something. You’re more likely to do it for a long time. You’re more likely to be willing to do the boring basics that most people skip. Lean into the things that feel fun. It’s the clearest edge you can find.
It's all a dopamine game.
Early bedtimes. Simple foods. Low stimulation. Reading instead of scrolling. Meditating instead of rotting. No phone in the morning. No notifications or texts until your work is complete.
The more you love the simple life, the more you can compound.
The game truly comes down to who loves themselves the most. This is all manifestation is. Have something to offer, put yourself out there, and just be ok with however the side characters choose to perceive you
One player gets laughed at and exits the arena immediately. Another player makes it to the three month mark but a last second rejection ends up being too much to emotionally handle. Every day the risk of embarrassment takes another prisoner
Don't have to be the best and oftentimes don't even need to do anything outwardly impressive. Just have to see yourself in a genuinely positive light and allow the world to mirror that self perception back to you. Radiate abundance through your thoughts and physically attract it back in kind. Last one standing always wins by default
