Same brain, different mind?
Changing dreams will do that. And that pretty much sums up my journey from where I came from, to where I’m now going.
If you had 5 minutes in a room with 17 year old you– what would you tell them?
This is the only person I compare myself to, and it’s a real eye opener.
My quick advice would be: WORK MORE. Always be working, dreams on their own turn into delusion fast, and delusion rots reality.
You don’t need the books. You don’t need all those freakish habits. It’s okay to enjoy taking a shower.
Just keep building.
Have skills, create, play, do as much as humanely possible. Working is a habit. Once you find your niche, you’ll see– it’s true fulfillment. I’m to the point where weekends are lame distractions.
The weirdest phenomenon is what happens to the brain when we’re removed from reality. Even some of the smartest people fall to this– it’s like everything you touch turns to failure. That’s why you need to be on the pulse.
You have to be in the arena, on the field, you have to be a player.
Otherwise your ideas aren’t based on anything useful.
How do you move out of the fog when you’re stuck in the middle?
By taking the smallest steps.
My mistake was I kept trying to go from nothing– to giant grandiosity. Because I was removed from that niche, market, and what people desired and I only thought about my growing pains– I kept creating useless crap.
Whatever it is you think you’d enjoy or like to build, you can’t go from nothing. You have to first get a feel for the field, you have to understand the players.
Start as small as possible.
Do it casually.
Then you’ll wake up, and to a different life.
Til next time, #FOOLFWD
