One year ago @dasilvashadow accidentally outed me on Twitter because my real name was my username.
I went from 0 → 38,000 followers.
Met some incredible people.
Learned a lot.
Trolled a lot.
But I have something to admit..... Im an absolute mess.
You never hear this part from people who look like they are “on top,” so I’ll say it.
This year I went through extreme relationship issues.
I invested into many projects that went to $0.
Leveraged Crypto is the Devil.
My dog died.
My businesses suffered.
My 2+ Year IRS audit was finalized, I owe an ungodly amount.
I spent two months out of the gym with what turned out to be a pinched nerve that a simple steroid fixed.
That MRI also uncovered a 2-inch mass on my thyroid.
Two ultrasounds, a Biopsy ..... Cancer
The good news? It’s one of the most survivable cancers.
The bad news? My throat is getting cut open and my thyroid is coming out.
Why share this?
Because social media is hard.
Everyone compares themselves to people who look like they have it all figured out.
The truth is most people you admire are either
Dealing with problems you can’t see, living paycheck to paycheck or both.
You don’t want to be someone else just because their life looks cool online.
Most of the time, that “cool life” is just an escape from reality.
What you actually want is to become a better version of yourself.
Stop doing the things that move you backward.
Start doing the things that move you forward.
So don’t worry about me.
Worry about you.
I scaled public visibility while my private life was on fire no downtime, expected to be up, fixing everyone else problems. I don't want sympathy I want you to understand SOCIAL MEDIA IS NOT REAL LIFE.
Because of Twitter I helped more people this year than in all years combined. Its what carried me through all the shit I have had to navigate.
Thank you Twitter!
Train so your kids remember you as strong, capable, and present.
Not as the parent who needed constant help because they ignored their health until it was too late.
You choose which story they live through.
Listen to me!
As I have said all of this 100 times
- Amazon, Walmart Automation (any of the automation) is a scam 100% no exception
- Stop buying courses! You can find anything you want on YT for Free
- Save your money, a lambo isn’t cool anymore. Carrio Motors ruined it.
- If you do buy an exotic car for the love of god baby Jesus allah and tom cruise don’t do the black sheet unveil.
- Invest what you can. Compound interest is the greatest thing on the planet
- You don’t have to have a morning routine to be successful
- Stick to your word
- Don’t think making it back when you lose it is just as easy as when you made it. It’s 100000000000x harder and 99.9% chance you won’t make it back.
- Stop buying dumb shit that impresses poor people.
- Work out
- Read Books
- Nobody is Coming to save you
- Discipline beats motivation
- Respect people who deserve it. Destroy people who don’t.
- Don’t compare yourself to people who live lives that look good on social media. 9/10 they live check to check and hate themselves.
- Revenue does not equal profit (read this 10 times)
- I’ll say it one more time, Invest what you can. Compound interest is the greatest thing on the planet.
-10 years sounds like a long time but it happens in an instant. Invest NOW!
Life is beautiful.
Do not miss it.
Do not take it for granted.
Do not tell yourself something is missing, as you will always find something to look for.
The thing you are looking for is you.
