Been a doctor all my life, literally. (How?)
Now building a life as a Solopreneur.
Have to learn everything practically new.
Daunting. Yes.
Will I ever quit?
No way. Never.
Here's my How 👇
Success is simple:
you dedicate time daily to your own growth;
you build relationships with others who share your drive and inspiration without competition;
you’re inflexible about taking care of your health, prioritizing energy, focus, and discipline to fuel your progress;
you find purpose in your family, knowing they are the reason you strive for something bigger;
you understand that financial freedom brings peace of mind, even when it’s tough;
you read to absorb ideas that stretch your thinking and open doors to new opportunities;
you write to reflect on how far you’ve come, to express gratitude for the journey, and to guide others so they can avoid your mistakes;
you learn to let go of what you can’t control, and you embrace every challenge that pushes you to become stronger and more capable.
Elon Musk just used a joke to perform an autopsy on the American economy.
Two economists go for a hike. They find a pile of shit. One pays the other $100 to eat it.
They keep walking. Find another pile. The second economist pays $100 back to eat that one.
They stop. Neither man gained a dollar. Both ate shit for nothing.
But on paper they just generated $200 in GDP.
Musk: “That basically would count as a job. This is to illustrate the absurdity of economics.”
That is not a punchline. That is the operating system of the federal government.
Every time a politician celebrates “record job creation” this is what they are describing. Not output. Not value. Not progress. Motion.
The entire bureaucratic machine exists to manufacture friction and then invoice for it.
Compliance layers built to justify the next compliance layer. Oversight committees that produce nothing but the need for more oversight. Consulting firms hired to audit the work of other consulting firms.
Trillions circulating through systems that have never produced a single thing you can hold in your hands. But the GDP number ticks up. So everyone applauds.
The shit gets eaten. The scoreboard moves. Nobody asks what actually got built.
This is why Washington treats AI like a five alarm fire.
AI does not play the friction game. It does not form a committee. It does not schedule a review. It does not file 400 pages of paperwork no one will ever read.
It just solves the problem.
And that is the one thing the machine cannot survive.
The government does not tax results. It taxes the process. The longer the process, the deeper the cut.
AI compresses a ten day workflow into seconds. There is nothing left to bill. Nothing left to tax. Nothing left to skim.
So they will spend the next decade warning you that AI threatens the economy.
What they will never say is what it actually threatens.
The illusion that activity equals progress.
The $200 economy where both men ate shit and called it a job.
The machines are not coming for your purpose.
They are coming to prove that half the economy never had one.
It is said that the young man in the photo, named Ahmed Abdullah, was a pharmacist working in a pharmacy. Every month, an elderly poor woman would come to him for her medicine. She would then approach him at the cash register... Whenever she saw him, her face would light up with joy. For years, she had been buying this medicine, and this young man would only take 200 Egyptian pounds from her. She would pay and leave.
Then, the young man passed away... The elderly woman returned to the same pharmacy, requested her medicine, and went to the cash register to pay 200 pounds. But he was not there.
Before she could ask about him, the new cashier said: “What is this, madam?”She replied: “This is 200 pounds for the medicine.”He responded: “But this medicine costs 2,000 pounds, madam.”
Surprised, she said: “But for more than three years, I have been getting it for 200 pounds from the young man who was here... Where is he?”
The new cashier replied: “He passed away, madam. May God have mercy on him.” Upon reviewing the records, it was discovered that this young man had been covering 1,800 pounds of the cost every month from his own salary at the pharmacy.
When the pharmacy owner learned of this, he decided to continue selling the medicine to the woman at the same price as an ongoing charity (sadaqah jariyah) for the sake of the young man’s pure soul. The least we can do to honor this exemplary young man is to let his photo travel the world without stopping, so that everyone may pray for mercy upon him. He deserves recognition.
Your brain has a delete button.
It's called sleep.
During deep sleep, your brain flushes out metabolic toxins.
Prioritizing sleep isn't lazy.
It's a biological necessity for a clear, sharp mind.
The ship is safest in the harbor
But that's not what ships are built for.
Your potential is meant to be explored, not protected.
Set sail. The open sea is calling.
The magic you're looking for is in the work you're avoiding.
That email.
That workout.
That difficult conversation.
Do the hard thing first. The relief and momentum will carry you.
You can't heal in the same environment that made you sick.
Toxic job?
Negative friends?
Cluttered space?
Change your environment if you have to.
It's the fastest way to change your life.
The magic you're looking for is in the work you're avoiding.
That email.
That workout.
That difficult conversation.
Do the hard thing first.
The relief and momentum will carry you.
Stop saying "I don't have time."
You have the same 24 hours as:
- Elon Musk
- Serena Williams
- Leonardo da Vinci
It's not about time. It's about priority and energy.
The compound effect is the 8th wonder of the world.
Read 10 pages a day. That's 15+ books a year.
Walk 30 minutes a day. That's 100+ miles a season.
Small, consistent steps create an unstoppable momentum.
Your environment is stronger than your willpower.
If you want to change your life, don't rely on motivation.
Set up a system that makes success inevitable.
Don't ask for an easy life. Its not meant to be.
Ask for the strength to endure a difficult one.
The struggle is what forges your character.
Seek challenge, not comfort.
