The HARD doesn't stop

Just work every day. Share it every day, to every person you possibly can. Do it relentlessly for years, and more likely, decades.

But you probably won’t. You’ll keep thinking there’s some way around this. You’ll make excuses that it’s about luck, or privilege, or the algorithm, or other people. Maybe you’ll try to convince yourself it’s about a lack of time, or money, or resources.

Believe whatever you want. I’ll be over here doing what I’ve been doing for over 2 decades and JUST now starting to get anything resembling quantifiable “success”. (I’m not alone in that at all btw)

You’ll serve yourself way better if you just settle into the fact that doing your own thing will test your patience and belief to the absolute MAX. It won’t be a single event that will launch you. It will be hundreds and thousands of tiny successes stacked on top of each other. It will be an accumulation of ALL of your effort, and even once you start to get some success you still have to MAINTAIN that effort.

It doesn’t stop peeps. The HARD doesn’t stop. The difference is at some point you’ll start to get a measurable reward for all that work. But if you think it’s going to get easy at some point, I’m here to check you and give you some reality.

Example? I’ve spent the last 5 hours today just sizing, saving, and naming files. I’m not getting paid for this other than it’s just another one of countless investments I’ve made into my work and future accessibility to that work.

Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.

Inspiration exists but it must find you working.

Stop the excuses, give up 30-90 minutes of scrolling, or video games, or TV and get behind the desk.

I love you
