Month: May 2021

It took about 7 months into this, but I see now I’m walking my path.

I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be, and what a relief to finally stop chasing imagination.

It’s weird to not want anything else, to not need it, not even entertain the idea. I no longer care about fame, recognition, awards, none of it.

And it’s not like I have to resist the urge to chase those superficial things, the urge is gone.

Today, all I care about is my skill and pushing it to the absolute fullest.

But how did I get here?

After years of searching for my calling- I didn’t find it. Instead, I reconnected to my soul, my core, my own individuality.

From there, everything else fell into place because now I know who I am on the deepest levels. I know what’s for me and what’s not and I can tell you- I grew, but I didn’t change and neither did you.

You are who you were.

I heard this saying years ago but until recently, I never really agreed with it. It went something like, “You’re closest to what you are in youth.”

The idea being, since you haven’t yet been socialized by society, you are more fully yourself.

If you can get to know yourself, not the way you do now, but to the core- you’ll be able to design a life around your character that makes for an enjoyable experience.

The strange quirks I had- that I used to ignore, are now being leveraged into my craft. Something I never even thought about nor valued about myself, actually ended up being key to my career.

If you’re struggling, it is likely the same for you.

You haven’t gone deep enough and that’s where you need to start.

The second part here is the people we’re around. You can hate it, think yourself under-influenced all you want, but the truth is- the people around us will infect us.

I started working with this millionaire recently, and up until this- I never gave a single shit about investing. I was of the impression that passion and skill was key to “living large.”

I resisted his ideas over and over. He’d talk and I’d stay thinking my way, but gradually I found myself considering what he was saying.

And sure enough, I’ve begun investing.

You are easily influenced. If you want to level up and are struggling right now, find a winner, and be around them as much as possible.

This is the easiest way to leverage human nature and grow out of your funk.

Be you, but never stop evolving.

I don’t know what actual wisdom is, whether I see situations correctly, if I’m overly-involved or not enough, but in truth none of this matters.

I keep falling for it, but as soon as I step away– I move away.

NONE of this matters.

Not in a dark, depressing way. I mean this in the most positive way possible. Life is enjoyable, when you’re open to it. The reason most of us are closed is because we have some expectation in our mind of how it’s supposed to be.

That’s what causes internal suffering and misery. Your reckless imagination.

For my entire life, I compared my present circumstances to my internal desires- to my imagination, to what I wanted.

All that did was serve to make me unhappy.

And yet, I know the things that bring me joy. Why didn’t I just do more of that each day?

That’s what I’m on now.

It took so many years, but at least I got it.

The answer was let it all go, and play.

Simple not easy.

“Deep down, everyones waiting for the end” – a quote by some asshole.

Nihilism isn’t cool.

But it’s easy.

It’s easy to feel like this is all for nothing.

For a long time I struggled with finding my meaning of life. I think the human animal, for some odd reason, needs to have a why for it all.

Maybe we’re uncomfortable with our smallness, or maybe we never grew out of our childish disdain for being told what to do.

Either way, how are we supposed to jump off those swings?

It’s like no matter how productive you are, the pendulum will fall back, and you’ll return to dark thoughts of “yeah, but I might not be here tomorrow.”

It’s funny how perspective determines whether something is positive or negative. Death could be a meaning maker, but for most of us millennials it is the reason we feel hopeless.

I think we all want a good time.

We want to make the most of what we have while we’re here.

It’s almost like our own darkness is separate from us. Sometimes I feel like two different people. When I’m clear thinking- I can easily see how truly wealthy I am. I have my health, career, friends, fulfilling skills I’m pursuing, and I have the freedom to choose.

That’s heads.

The tails side- I’m overly sensitive, competitive, refuse to be told what to do, think everyone is out to get me, and see everything in a negative light.

I hate tails.

But I land on that coin often.

And It’s exhausting riding those swings.

I’m learning to jump off. I’ve realized I can’t stop having that energy, it’s just how I’m designed. Channeling it into something with intense focus is the only way to renew me, and flip the coin back to heads.

I started training muay thai, and each time I finish a session- I’m back to neutral. Writing also provides a type of clarity for the mind.

My advice isn’t for you to copy me.

It’s to design a life that returns you to heads.

Life is a pendulum. It’s in constant motion and impossible to keep one sided.

Your only goal should be to find a way to ride it without losing your composure.

Hey Fool.

This one took a little bit to realize, and yeah, I would hit you with “attitude is everything” but in truth, this has profoundly helped me make the most of my life even more.

I changed what I chased.

I knew I needed something to live for. I know, it sounds kinda pathetic. What about love and happiness?

That shit just doesn’t do it for me, it’s not enough.

Skills are everything you’ll ever need.

When I stopped chasing empty ideas of success and started actually learning and pursuing things I’m interested in, life started awesome-ing.

Who would have thought?

I mean, literally everything I ever read taught this, but I guess I had to find it on my own.

Pursue your interests.

Get good at things you’re semi-inclined for.

If you do this, you’ll begin to develop passion, and life will reward you. I think we all have a false idea of what life is supposed to be.

We imagine we’ll somehow meet passion in the street, and know on sight that’s the one.

Anything that comes quick, goes quick.

So, let’s pretend you trust me enough to now want to develop and pursue skills– Where do you start?

Open up any online skill learning platform (skillshare, udemy, etc.) and search through to see what captures your interest.

Start there.

If you don’t like it, dump it and move on.

Hey Fool.

They say if you want something done, hand it over to a busy person. Well, along with that- I’d say if you want to get better, stay busy.

It’s likely me not knowing what to do with it, but nothing good has ever happened when I had a little too much time.

I get to thinking, and then make some poor decisions.

Resisting life is how you stay miserable, and I was born with strong resistance. When I get to thinking about where I am and the gap of where I want to be, I get the strongest urge to burn down all my progress and start over.

It’s stupid. It’s counterintuitive. It’s what happens.

If you struggle with this- my solution is character. Goals aren’t enough, neither is passion. Both those things can be changed on a whim.

You need to want to be different.

You need change, not the idea of it.

I’ve realized I’m most fulfilled when I’m disciplined, when I’m building.

Stay away from cravings, let go of worry,

& don’t overthink it.

Hey Fool.

I’m learning a lot of what makes for success is the ability to leave it alone.

I used to act out of emotion, force things to happen, and though it often helped in the short term, it usually sabotaged my long term goals.

Everyone preaches “Self-awareness.”

But here’s the context they leave out: It’s only a superpower when you do something about it.

Knowing how you’re wired will help you take control over your life– not entirely, but enough to advance.

You can’t change and be something you’re not.

We enter this world as already somethings, your task is to understand this deeply.

Look at the times in your life where you did exceedingly well- what environments bring out the best in you?

What are some commonalities between the places you don’t do so well in?

It seems so simple, but most of us don’t make it this far. When I stopped chasing ideas of success and got real with what I was like- I advanced.

Do the same.

Hey Fool.

When I started this blog I had no intention of turning it into some digital journal, but faking content just for the sake of posting doesn’t feel right.

The future is bright.

We’ve got opportunities everywhere we look, the internet is the new career path and our education system and economy is being rapidly displaced by more efficient online systems.

The obstacles that stand in your way?

(Sh)People.

Empathy is becoming an untrained muscle- like your appendix. It might have had a purpose, but now we just cut it out.

I think we all forget the realness of personality, which makes communicating near impossible.

I don’t make the “Baaaa-ing” sound. It’s just not the animal I am.

Yet, some of our teammates want everyone to sound the same. They preach diversity- but only physically, never mentally, because in truth no one likes different and cowards fear it.

What can you do?

Count em’….OUT.

To give into stupid political battles only exhausts you. I used to be captain-save-a (fill in the blank) but I’ve since grown wiser.

The only thing you should think of is what you WANT. We all learn this bad habit of focusing on worry and fear, you need to train out of that.

My new mindset is my goals, my values, my actions- everything outside of that is not my concern.

If you are determined to make something of this life- sign everything outside of your path to oblivion. They don’t have to exist in your mind, don’t let them.

That’s power.

That’s the good life.

Hey Fool.

The other day I took some time to reflect on how my life changed and how I got unstuck- I decided to share that here, maybe you’ll find meaning in it should you find yourself going through the same thing.

My quest started after I graduated high school.

I went to Cali. What drove that was me tasting “the good life”- I directed videos with friends senior year and believed that was it- my passion. So I moved there to become something (but I chased fame from directing rather than skill).

When I landed there, rather than write scripts and film my own projects, I instead sat around sending out forged resumes hoping to get calls. Spent cash doing nothing, chilling in a room all day and growing depressed, and occasionally took a small gig here and there.

This left me so disconnected and depressed from who I was, totally withdrawn- I returned home. Completely directionless, I re-enrolled in college. No real reason, I just didn’t want to feel like a loser. My next big idea was writing music. It looks like the parasitic thought that took hold of me was fame equals success and identity.

I hated song writing, but I kept doing it. Eventually, I got a job in sales (my first real job since graduating). I leaned away from fame, the path I was on was worthless to me.

Here, I allowed myself to open up to new ideas. Bounced from one sales job to the next, until I landed in some call center (which I hated) that would lead me to my next big idea. Same concept as fame, but now the aim was to become filthy rich as an entrepreneur.

Looks like I always chased being a type of success (publicly). Did you actually hustle? No. Just bought courses and played business, and hated it.

So, not so surprisingly I left that. After a very checkered job history, I was unemployed for long stretch. My depression worsened. I did nothing, stayed indoors and felt increasingly unfamiliar with myself. I half ass attempted some internet business ideas, but then left that cold.

Sinking more and more, my life became nothing but recycling air in my coffin. I stuck to a strict morning routine, and then did nothing the entire day. I hated myself, but was so ashamed, I felt I shouldn’t or couldn’t leave.

Now I was questioning everything, including the worth of my life. It got real bad. There was only one interception and this is what saved me.

Robert Greene’s war book.

I read the death ground strategy, and I knew i needed to move to shake myself out of this funk.

So, I did. I drove to Austin with a friend- broke AF. But we were already broke so it didn’t matter. It was here I reconnected to myself. I didn’t go there thinking I was going to return, or thinking I’d again be jobless but being there led to a therapeutic consultation and that was crucial.

That made me realize my spiritual struggle was nothing more than delusion. Realizing that, I asked the most important question- if chasing fantasy is my eternal struggle, what could I stick with, even if i didn’t love and do it myself?

I landed on writing– copywriting, and here we are. I went full circle from the bottom, to a full time copywriting role, which once in- strangely got me back into directing.

Right now, you’re still learning and this place has given you a taste of your OG purpose. So, fuck it. Let’s see where this all leads.

The pattern that my brain naturally falls for is delusion. A strange desire to retreat from life into fantasy and there, sink. Because I know my mind has this habit, I’ll combat it by constantly throwing myself into reality. All throw yourself out there.

I won’t f**k up my life by isolating myself or pulling myself from work. I suffer there. I’m delusional, paranoid, and deeply depressed when I’m not moving.

I need my hobbies, my career, my work.

You’re doing well, just keep going.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did so. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” -Mark Twain

No more.

Creating conditions to do something is beyond stupid, and disguising it as the “right timing” -even more pathetic.

Life moves on, with or without you.

I don’t know how we’re so easily conditioned to be afraid, but that’s all this is.

I’ve always wanted a rich life- defined by experiences, adventure, constant challenges and thrill and only recently did I discover it was me getting in my own way.

Today, I only concern myself with my goals. I don’t operate on fears, that’s not mine to think about.

If you want to build a great life you need to start small.

What small act can you do today?

We put off things we enjoy, saving ourselves for some success-marriage? Than we’re depressed when we never find the one.

Don’t wait to live.

Don’t succeed to play.

Decide to smile at it all.

The truth is, we one because we get to play.

It’s yours.

Words to make every absentee parent run faster than Usain Bolt.

Most of us don’t feel any connection to our youth. Sure, we have nostalgia for some tv shows and locations, but we don’t honor anything about who we were back then.

I didn’t think it was important.

I mean what the hell did I know as a kid?

A lot of what makes you who you are was obvious in your playground-running, booger- launching, and pant-shitting days.

Naturally, we don’t like to remember the times where we were kinda gross, had weird interests, and some questionable behaviors.

But child you possessed an unattainable wisdom you’ve since forgotten. When we’re young, we always do things we enjoy. We’re unbothered by politics, and the opinions of others, and most importantly- we’re far more comfortable with who we are.

The shame of adulthood hasn’t corrupted us yet.

As you become socialized, your custody arrangement changes- now you’re seeing the kid every other weekend, and you often wonder are they truly yours?

Somehow you forgot that you were equally weird.

We numb our traits, and then we lose connection to the things that gave us life, our uniqueness. Slowly, we age into passionless generic beings and live a life that resembles the public, a reflection of the times we’re living in, it just blends into the background.

Shame was taught to you.

Guilt was taught to you.

Insecurity was taught to you.

Go take a lesson from child you, because they knew better than to feel those things. You’ve got to remember your individuality and start connecting to it.

It’s really the only way to become what you are- to become who you were meant to be and to live a life you find worth living.

What’s up Fool,

Are you tired yet?

Unless you live under a rock and away from civilization, there is no chance you haven’t been indirectly drilled by key guru lesson #1: Mindset.

In fact, you’re probably an expert on the topic so this may all be irrelevant to you.

But here is what I’ve gathered from my human condition and how mindset eases it:

We’re meaning making machines.

We need to believe in something, we need stories, we need a mythos, a personal code and legend. We need this because life will kick your ass, and when it does -you need something that can’t be taken from you to fallback on, and that can only be internal.

Without realizing it, I’ve always tied my identity to potential. This was my genetic default. 6 year old me really thought himself big because he was extremely ambitious, full of himself, and cunning enough to know he could get what he wanted.

It may surprise you to learn that life still requires facing obstacles and doing the work.

It surprised me.

So after a series of mishaps, failures, and identity crisis’ -I retreated to mindset and it led to an improvement in every part of my life.

Turns out, believing you’re a God is counterproductive to being successful. It makes you believe you’re supposed to be perfect, which doesn’t leave much room for growth.

Mindsets are not just for learning new skills. They impact the way that we think about everything. A growth mindset can help you recover from illness because you believe that you can do something about it.

You need to know you control your destiny.

Cultivating a growth mindset is the single most important thing you’ll ever do to achieve success.

Everything starts here.

What’s up fool,

I feel like I’ve understood this before but never known it as I do now.

Every time we give into our default mode, we move backwards in life. I trusted my imagination since youth. I trusted it over everything- and I fully believed what I was feeling was “truth.”

If you’re still here, this is what is holding you back.

My delusions of success- the vision of me doing all these random, seemingly fun things, none of it was an actual option. Not because I can’t have fun or succeed, but because this didn’t come from an authentic place.

These things weren’t my passion, I didn’t enjoy learning about them or doing it in my spare time, yet my mind enjoyed holding onto a world where I lived that life.

Because that life was so beyond my present, I felt crushed by my own smallness in comparison.

But time moves on, and so did I.

As I began to slowly accept reality, the possibility that this dream movie star life isn’t for me, I opened up to real options.

I learned about myself, and what would be good for me. I found an ideal to strive for and most important of all- I had finally seen beyond my psychological filter.

I could see the truth.

What saved me was practicality.

When I considered my own nature, my strengths and weaknesses, quirks, desires, interests, only then could I start to build a life that suited me.

I’ll tell you this, I’ve never felt more fulfilled than I do right now. The reason for this is simple, my life is an extension of who I am- and that’s not an automatic process.

I chased ecstasy only to realize it’s an attitude and way of life- not some random accomplishment.

You have to earn this.

You have to build it.

If you can move away from wonderland- you’ll find reality far more interesting.

What’s hatnin Fool,

This’ll be a fairly straight forward post.

Think of someone who you admire, at least how they live and their attitude towards life.

What kind of experiences does this person have, what specifically do you admire?

The reason I bring this up is simple, attitude determines the genre of your life. I know, I sound like a broken record player, but it’s not enough to know of this, you need to KNOW it.

It’s strange when you finally see it play out. All you did was be a fun mood and all of a sudden- you’re out in the world doing more, seizing opportunities once invisible to you, and playing as the main character of your movie.

Nothing stops you from throwing yourself out there and embracing it.

When faced with the choice of retreating or retaliating- NEVER BACK DOWN.

We get tired, down, sometimes we feel sad for no reason, I’m not saying to ignore these things. Just don’t let them impact how you operate in the world.

Be Bold. Be Confident.

This might be heavy for you, but you’ve been asleep.

I don’t know why or how, but the default setting in most of our brains is delusion.

We run around caring about stupid small and insignificant things, worry about what others think, involve ourselves in petty drama, and conclude all this with the world is against us.

I keep forgetting it too.

I constantly forget I’m going to die.

All this shit that I make a big deal of, it doesn’t matter. It won’t matter a year from now, let alone a lifetime.

The cure to misery is perception. You need to see correct, and you need to start with the assumption that you don’t.

I finally got it.

It hit me the other day. I choose how to respond, so while everyone panics and worries, I’ll just focus and relax. And surprise, that’s exactly what happened.

Imagine your perfect life. How do you act? Who are you around? What are you doing each day? How do you feel?

You need to step into these things now, regardless of how hard it feels.

If you can become this person first, life will match you.

The truth is in the middle.

There are two primary schools of thought when it comes to building your life- improve your weaknesses, or double-down on strengths.

Truth is, It’s option C- all of the above.

As far as choosing the right career, yes, you should be inclined for it. You’re not going to change your genetic makeup, and disciplining through something you hate will only make you miserable.

At the same time, if you’re naturally lazy or only want to do what you love 24/7, you’ll find that equally destructive.

My answer to this existential conundrum is a personal code of conduct.

Rules are freedom? Turns out, they are.

Create some checks and balances to stop you from f**king yourself over when you’re weak, and aim at something that suitably encompasses all the quirks to your character.

That’s actually all there is to it. Follow the big5 to start off with. There are other career personality tests that might help you get to know yourself.

If you’re highly extraverted and creative, look for fields that combine those traits. I’ve come to learn that passion isn’t anything magical. It’s just nature.

It’s you doing what you are.

Figure out what you are first, and match the environment accordingly.

Why does it take us so long to come to basic realizations?

Having a breakthrough is awesome, but not enough. No one ever talks about the relapse afterwards. Unlike the movies, the person who finally “makes it” is still who they were before. So yeah, you achieved your goal, but your struggles won’t just disappear.

It took me an embarrassingly long time to just do basic things. I knew skills were the answer, but I was too comfortable believing in the dream.

I wanted that all-or-nothing life. That life where my career is everything, I compete, and what I do is so closely tied to who I am that I desire nothing but to continue to play the game.

And unlike those rare individuals (Steve Jobs, Michael Jordan, etc.) I never found it.

Because I never had an all-consuming obsession to begin with, which was baffling to me, who has an unbelievably obsessive personality.

So this post is for the non-Steve Jobs individuals. The rest of us.

How do we make life good?

And in comes identity. If you’re struggling in quick-sand and have a hard time moving anywhere, you need to change your image.

Everything, literally everything in your life, can be traced back to how you see and define yourself.

And if you’re stuck, the first hard step is figuring out which direction you want to move in. I knew I wanted to be self-employed and have the time and freedom to, basically do whatever I want.

Knowing this led me to considering skills I could do from anywhere.

And that led to my current career.

I didn’t pick this from a burning passion, just a core value. The hard part became staying the course.

To not throw it all away like I always have, I had to redefine myself.

I can’t see myself as this magical and special individual who has a far greater fate than anyone on this planet- because that belief always left me broke, unemployed, and depressed.

I had to let that go, and create a more functional identity.

Like being a learner, entrepreneurial, the person who embraces changes and challenges for the sake of personal evolution.

When I chose to become my best, life reflected it.

You need to stand for something more than yourself. WHO do you want to become?

Your life will follow.

What’s up Fool.

Do you ever stop and think about what you want to happen this year?

The other day, I was staring at my calendar and noticed I’m 80 days away from having written and posted daily (not just on this site).

That’s how fast time went by.

And I realize, that’s exactly how most people lose track of their own life. What drives each of your days? Emotions? Duty? Responsibilities?

None of these things will bring you the life you dream about.

That’s how it happens.

We wake up and just do the things we’re supposed to, and boom, years escape us and we find ourselves stuck.

I’m not trying to go all motivation-guru and tell you we all have 24 hours in a day, and you’re a magical, special, loved by the universe- being.

No.

The only thing you need to get good at here, is actual goal setting.

This is my new thing, philosophy, system for living life.

From now on, every year, I’ll have a goal that both motivates and excites me- that is measurable and I can take daily action on.

This is key to having a good life.

The best thing I ever did for myself was stop trusting my imagination.

Like most of you, I was highly dream oriented as a kid but my dreams were a little different than yours.

I’d imagine myself living a life of purpose, as a 6yr. old, I craved my one true calling. This went on for most my life, and to this day is still something that occasionally comes over me.

I have a gnawing headache, a restlessness brought on by some grandiose delusion that I’m meant to fulfill a single purpose.

It was hard to accept that this wasn’t real. In fact, for most of my life -I refused to. I’m not saying you and I don’t have a purpose, but for my growth I needed to let this go.

I started seeing myself.

I started seeing someone who robbed themselves of joy in the moment, cheating on reality with fantasy, and at 25 having experienced nothing meaningful.

At that time, I hit such a low I was finally ready to start over.

And I did.

What I came to realize were that the best moments of my life came from me not worrying about this. Not thinking about tomorrow or giving a shit about the “how” and “why” of life.

It baffles me that I obsessed over this as long as I did. I still can’t understand how a parasitic idea took root in me so young.

It’s really my only struggle, and I really do struggle with it.

It doesn’t feel like something I can ever overcome, but more-so come to terms with.

And that, I’m beginning to do. When I see people who’ve reached the end of their life, and talk like that, like me, except their entire life went by and they stayed chasing fantasy- I RUN right back to reality.

I don’t want to be someone who hated their life, and when I focus only on this magical purpose and my never finding it, I’m depressed.

For that reason, I’ll call it what it is- a glitch in my wiring.

I can’t believe my delusions- because time and again they’ve f**ked me. If it was real, chasing it would have produced some return, yet the only thing “magic” ever got me was unemployment, delusion, isolation, and deep misery.

Reality on other hand, gave me nothing but more LIFE.

By being pragmatic, I began a new career, started leveling up my skills, and began moving forward financially.

As I grow older, there is far less magic to my life, BUT far more life.

And that’s really all I’ve ever wanted.

My personal philosophy is ruthless practicality, constant development, and growth.

I don’t have your answers, but I can tell you asking the right questions will help get you out.

It took awhile, but I finally got it. And although I’m still often hit with the urge to jump, I don’t- because there is no where else to go.

All I ever wanted was freedom.

Not the turn 18, and now you’re an adult- kind.

The freedom to live life on my own terms, to live fully, unapologetically, and to do what I want when I want.

For whatever reason, I had it in my mind that you could find this freedom. I guess I thought if you stumbled into your one true passion, it inevitably would lead to this.

I’ve since learned, doing the above only leads to delusion, and ironically, the opposite of freedom.

You have to build.

I chose one thing that I was inclined for, and no, it still isn’t an all consuming love relationship. However, I feel myself getting better, improving, and increasingly interested in the subject.

I’ve hit a point where I’m happy to commit to this because at least it fits me.

At least with this, I’m met with progress.

What did chasing chimeras ever bring me? Depression.

Fulfillment comes from engagement. That’s what these guru-preneurs leave out.

You don’t need a random course to find your one true calling, or any of that crap. What you find yourself interested in is the starting point. Everything you choose reveals who you are, so start there.

Commit to living in the now, in one year you’ll be so much farther than you ever imagined.

Everyone’s a super fan of something, but wearing another persons face is weird.

It’s a helluva time to be alive.

We’ve got amazing innovations in tech, work from home is near standard, BUT people are moving away from intelligence at TOP historical speeds.

Most have forgotten how to use empathy, or completely drunk from instagram- numbed it.

There’s a lack of trust, a lack of understanding, and an overall anti-social distancing. You’re best bet here is to roll with it all, and even that is difficult.

Here’s what I’ve learned about the game:

You can’t play without the tribe.

Believe me, I wish it could be done. There just isn’t another way, and on top of that, you’re not going to enjoy the tribe you play for.

So, how do you win the unwinnable game?

Not by tattooing your teams name on your forehead.

This post has a point to it, it’s this: In public, play with others. Be friendly, charismatic, outgoing, but ALWAYS put yourself first. Think of your goals, desires, ambitions, and admire your own potential.

Stop looking to others.

Play this game as the person you want to become.
