If someone tells you it takes decades that you don’t have to get into something, don’t wait in line with them.
You know, for having this much “access” i.e. resources— we don’t do shit.
Think about it, everyone wants a better job, house, car, wife, husband, kids, life…. but ALL of those every-bodies will go down conventional routes and eventually just settle.
And don’t get me wrong, settling is underrated— if you’re happy.
Continually chasing happiness is an idea sold by self improvement cults to drain you of all your cents, and sense.
Want success (the fulfillment kind for your own life)?
It’s actually simpler than you think.
First, decide you want something better, but be specific. What is the bare minimum requirements for a good life?
Instead of reaching for the stars, reach for the pen and pad.
Fuck your dreams.
Where do you live, what’s your day look like, how do you spend your time and what problems are you solving?
These are questions to get you moving, and movement is key.
Now, pick the smallest and most important thing.
For example, if you wanted to be a writer, journaling everyday for 3 minutes would be a good small goal. 3 minutes too much? Make it 1.
There’s only one way to step out of line and that’s with your feet.
You have to DECIDE to act with faith.
Faith because you don’t know what the future holds, but you’re choosing to believe in something greater than your circumstances.
Might as well, because to reprise my role as captain obvious, there ain’t any real risk in the face of death….. and we’ll all face her someday.
