“No accomplishment has substance nearly as great as the road used to achieve it.
We are not creatures of destination. It is the journey that shapes us.”
Learned about teleology, have found it very helpful
Now always questioning what my end goal is.
It’s easy to change your current state by understanding what your mind is trying to accomplish.
Highly recommend reading “The Courage to Be Disliked” , breaks down teleology
Nobody who ever did anything worth remembering believed in themselves first that's the scam they sell you so you stay frozen waiting for a feeling that only comes after you've already jumped, i built everything i have on pure terror and spite, hands shaking the whole time, faith didn't show up until i was already bleeding and by then i didn't even need it anymore i just needed stitches, the motivational industry exists to keep you preparing to begin, buying books about starting, watching videos about doing, and that's the trap you feel productive because you consumed something about productivity and you go to sleep full but you built nothing, the man who changes his life doesn't feel ready he feels sick he feels wrong he does it anyway and his body learns before his mind catches up and six months later someone asks him how he got here and he says i don't know i just didn't stop and that's the whole gospel, that's the entire scripture, moses didn't believe he stuttered and went anyway, every prophet argued with God first said no first said take someone else and God said i didn't ask if you were ready i asked if you were willing
"Leonardo da Vinci famously said that God will sell you anything at the price of labor. Modern society is filled with coupon shoppers, but I am willing to pay for my dreams in full."
I was writing absolute bangers 2 years ago in college. Knew what I wanted, knew how to get it.
Got my first Indian PIF today
Guy was an uber driver and $30k in debt, been pushing off starting a biz for 4 years
Identified limiting belief, got his agreement in needing to overcome it, the consequences if he didn’t --> objection less PIF
Sales can be so beautiful
My commission checks:
Months 1-6: $1900/m avg. 🥲
Months 6-8: $60/m 🫥
Months 8-13: $8k/m SDR offer stacking 🤫
Still working to hit a $10k month. Finally closing after believing the laptop on a beach dream over a year ago and dropping out of college for it.
Never give up.
@joshdoltonn I know maybe 2 people who started at the same time I did and are still in the sales space
I got in it as a get rich quick scheme, stayed with it once I realized it was a thinking mans game
Stop trying to kill the demon, just build the temple on top of him until he can't breathe. Bad habits die from neglect not violence. Every morning you choose which version of yourself gets fed, and the hungry one always wins, so feed the right version until the wrong one forgets how to exist. Stack blessings until curses have no room to grow
@itsjasongraham bro that clip u posted where you have the 2.0 version of themselves convo after the future pace is how i got the limiting belief too, straight sauce and felt super natural
