💪 Working On A Saturday? Who's Putting In The Work?
I think the "anti" grind culture can do people a disservice.
You don't have to grind if you don't want to.
But, you know, you have to sacrifice something to make your dreams come true.
(I think thats why following your passions can make things a little easier because its more fun)
I'm working today on a Saturday on a YouTube video.
I don't want to (probably why I'm writing this post instead).
But to achieve my goals, I need to do it, today, not tomorrow, not next week. TODAY.
It's not a bad thing to grind, to work hard for your dreams.
And it's a lot easier when you work hard on the right things and see some results.
That's why I feel its so important to work on the right things.
It's very overwhelming and depressing to grind away and see nothing for your work.
So make sure to pick the right problem to work on.
Don't listen to all the social media gurus telling you that your only problem to success is x, y or z.
If you just listened to them and did this ONE thing you'd have success.... right?
Naw. Not true.
  • What do you want?
  • What is the SINGLE thing right now, keeping you from that?
  • Double check yourself, if you solve that, will things really change?
Example, you want to start a business. So you need a website, right?
Well... probably not!
Let's pretend you finish that website, it's beautiful.
Who's going to see it? NO ONE.
Your true problem is attention.
My point is, being able to assess your own business, honestly, is a true business skill.
Pick items that will REALLY move the needle.
Play it out, when I finish this, what will happen? how will life be different?
Getting 10K views on a video will move the needle. Trust me.
Especially if you get those 10K views everyday.
Have you noticed I don't have a website? I'll make well over $100K this month with NO WEBSITE.
Take a second right now and answer this question.
What is my TRUE SINGLE BIGGEST ROADBLOCK right now.
Think on it for a bit. Ask yourself what changes after you're done? How is your life or business really all that different once you're done?
If you answer this question too fast you didn't really think about it.
Take a moment and really think. And be honest with yourself.
Then get to work.
Drop what you're working on in the comments.
Or if you need help sorting out what to do next, drop your question in the comments.
(Now back to my video lol)
