“Your vision is greater than you.”
Maybe you don't know that, but you have to believe it. You don't know that because you're distracted, not focused. Your mind has become a roller coaster where you only focus on short-term pleasures, not long-term goals. Stop destroying your life.
There will be 2 conditions to wake up to reality:
First, if you make a decision and change yourself.
Second, If something disastrous happens to you it will force you to change everything in your life.
In both cases, you will become a mature human from an immature one, but let me tell you one thing: Relying on the first condition will hurt you less in the long term, and if you wait for the second to happen, it will be too painful for you to resist.
Suffering is an undeniable part of life, like pleasure. You are supposed to suffer through hardship, pain, and training the way you do with pleasure.
Most of the time life is not about pleasure it's about building self-resistance and hardships you face for yourself.
“Nothing is more important than your potential.”
I repeat nothing. If you don't realize it now, you will suffer immense pain in the long term. The only thing that separates great men from average men is that they know their potential from the beginning. They know it will take time, but they choose to do it anyway.
Pain is inevitable in any game you play, but suffering is chosen so you must select your suffering.
You can try and explore everything until you find that one thing where you can't pull yourself away from or you will become an old man filled with regrets for not taking the risks to try out new things in life.
Everyone has a vision inside of their head most people haven't found out yet. If you lack vision read, if you lack ideas write, and if you have both then build.
Ideas are everywhere anyone can give you an idea of how it will be done, but very few men iterate and execute them. Be the few men.
Most things are solved just by staying disciplined, giving yourself 6 months in one business model, and not switching around every time like a monkey.
Locked in, get the work done. There's no room for excuses.
When you have a clear vision in your head there's nothing that can stop you rather than your beliefs. Believe your instincts over intellectual.
When you see a clear picture in your head and feel it in your chest that something will happen, It will happen.
"The reality is life is a single-player game. You’re born alone. You’re going to die alone. All of your interpretations are alone. All your memories are alone. You’re gone in three generations and nobody cares. Before you showed up, nobody cared. It’s all single-player." - Naval Ravikant
You don't lack focus, you already have your focus on chit-chats, video games, and porn. You lack a solid purpose and passion in your life.
Be nothing and be everything. Be an artist, be a philosopher, be a writer.
Separating yourself from the people who are not like you is an advantage, not a loss. Surround yourself with people who have the same vision as you.
You can never reach the point where your heart desires if you fill yourself up with negative people, emotions, feelings, etc. You are not your thoughts Remember that. The only way to remove all of those things is to separate yourself.
Catching an idea and executing it are two very different things. You have to be practical with your idea. If you cannot state your belief then it's not your belief it's someone else's.
"Capture your ideas through writing and build them with execution."
Collect the ideas that you need for your progress. The best way to get ideas is by going for a walk, working out in the gym, and practising mindfulness.
Do the things that require certain creativity it will broaden your perspective and broaden your mind. Once you get a keen interest in doing things creatively you will be more interested to work towards your vision.
To be more specific, don't latch into too many things. Take one task at a time and accomplish it fully which lets you get closer to your dream project.
Write more to gain more clarity anything you do, just write more you can lie to your thoughts in your brain but not in your writing, you can't do that.
Things will always get a bit tricky after a time all you need to do is to stick with your vision, but bare mind know when to change the way you do things if they aren't working properly.
“Dont change your vision, try more ways to achieve that.”
Most people are lost and don't know where to start their journey, I'd say start with your body, because your mental health is downstream from your physical health when you feel good with your health you will find and try more ways of working than procrastinating. Progress is feeling good, and even more when it's in the right direction.
People are more afraid of what other people will think about if they fail, more than their failure.
Ideation to creation is the process that every creator goes through.
If you don't know what skills to learn to get closer to your goal to achieve your vision, find out what the necessary skills required to learn. Whatever you learn combine them with a skill stack let me give you an example:
• As an editor, master visual hooks, clip from long-form, & write hook copy.
• As a newsletter writer, help grow newsletters via social media & build email campaigns.
• As a ghostwriter, take long-form video content & repurpose it for LinkedIn & X.
Do any of these, and you'll instantly see the difference.
Skill stacking = more income, and less competition.
