I sometimes forget that I:
• work for 1 of the world's largest publicly-traded firms
• am growing my own agency business
• on a world-class team
• live where people vacation
• have a healthy, 1 y/o
• have another one on the way
• have loving wife
• am BLESSED a ton.

My mindset at 32:
• Say no to 90% of opportunities
• Work in 1.5-hour focused blocks, not 10.5-hour marathon sessions
• Measure success in outcomes
• Protect my time and energy like a business asset
Crazy how experience can grow your work ethic.
The modern employee is now a contractor.
And most haven't realized it.
• You can be laid off at any time with one email.
• The work you do is becoming project based.
• Company loyalty is dead.
• And workplace families are now a HR scam.
In the digital age, everyone will become a one-person business. Instead of one employer you'll have multiple and call them customers.
This is good news for high agency people. And it forces you to think like an owner and be self-sufficient.
The people who will win are those who make sales and marketing a habit.
Because without it, you'll have no new leads. Which means no new customers.
Embrace the trend. Become a business. Think like an entrepreneur.
Social media is part science, part art, and part lottery. You can do everything "right", and the algorithm still won't serve up your content.
Then you could shitpost, and that one gets a million views.
The most successful people I've met:
- Workout daily
- Never complain
- Insanely curious
- Growth oriented
- Strong work ethic
- Focused on solutions
- Have a reason for waking up
- Understand 2nd order consequences
- Network and hang with other successful people
Anything you'd add?
My weekend probably beat yours.
I am grateful to share that my son, Raphael Andres Camacho, was born on August 2, 2025, at 5:57 am.
Both mama and baby are doing great!
We're officially a "Camacho, party of 4" family.
