If you want to make the most progress you've ever made in your life, you need to be alone. You need an extended period of isolation, not influenced by friends or media, spent building your future. You need space to learn, think, experiment, and fail.
Give yourself 6 months. Focus solely on the development of your mind, body, spirit, and finances. This is how you get ahead of most people.
Stand tall. Dont crack. Endure. You can die tomorrow. Today you do the only thing you can do. You fight. You rage on. You do what you came to do. You finish what you started. No matter how much it costs. How long it takes. Or how much it hurts. Because you said you would.
I’ve lost money on over 9,000 ads I personally wrote.
I���ve had over 2000 1-on-1 sales consults reject my offer.
My first 300 episodes of my podcast I published with barely any downloads.
In 9 different business partnerships, I was the reason we failed.
3 times I pitched an entire audience - and sold no one.
Nobody is special.
Everybody sucks when they start.
My head gasket is gone. Destroyed. I had no injury / injuries going into the fight. I was throwing kicks, planted and jumping, all throughout camp as well as backstage before the fight. This came out of nowhere. I am beyond dark here. I can only describe it as hell.
You're going to look lame, stupid, cringe, not cool. This is not something you avoid. It is a fixed cost of success. It's the first test you have to pass to get what you want. You need to want what you want more than you care about other people think about what you want or how you get it. You have to learn to trade their approval for your own.
“i’m not good at math”
no, you’re lazy and undisciplined. years of not applying yourself to understand what is arguably the most important subject compounded to the point where you are functionally mathematically illiterate.
now, you use this as an excuse to make yourself feel better, that some people just have the math gene, and you don’t. They were lucky, you were not.
nobody is born knowing calculus, and yes very few people are savants. The rest of us didn’t understand it just like you, but actually put in the work to make the unknown to us, known.
put in the effort to learn math, it’s worth it.
