Things never changed as fast as they do today. But at the same time, things will never again change as slowly as they do today...

March 2023
Your actual destination
Just because you keep moving doesn't mean you're getting closer to your actual destination...
| |
|
None of it...
If you want to see everything, do everything and experience everything, you'll end up really seeing, really doing and really experiencing none of it...
| |
|
Forever...
When was the last time you did something that could, in the long run, change your life forever..?
| |
|
Listen closely...
The only person you should try to please is your 80-year-old self... So what would she say to you today?
| |
|
More and more doors
The more doors you open, the more (new) doors you'll get access to. And those doors will lead to even more doors. Try to keep that in mind...
| |
|
It won't even matter anymore...
In the long run, most of what's urgent today won't even matter anymore tomorrow...
| |
|
A dumb move...
A seemingly smart move isn't necessarily the result of being smart. More often than not, it's the result of experience. Of many dumb moves that will eventually lead you to figure out what distinguishes a smart move from a dumb move...
| |
|
How to not do it
The best way to learn and really understand how to do something is to learn and understand how to not do it. And to not give up along the way...
| |
|
What are you looking for?
We're rarely looking for answers. Or new perspectives. And instead, we're looking for confirmation of the things we already believe in and (think we) already know...
| |
|
Having a dream...
If your plan only works when everything goes according to plan, then you probably don't even have a plan. And instead, you have a dream...
| |
|
Plenty of opportunities
There'll always be plenty of opportunities. Because there'll always be an abundance of people that are too afraid to seize them...
| |
|
Mindset does...
Equipment doesn't make a champion. Just like skills don't. But mindset does...
| |
|
Comfortable...
In the long run, doing what feels uncomfortable today will enable you to feel comfortable tomorrow...
| |
|
Out there...
Don't wait until you're a pro to put yourself out there. Because there's just one way to become a pro: Putting yourself out there...
| |
|
Until it happens to them...
People usually don't realize that something isn't quite right until it happens to them. Keep that in mind...
| |
|
Supposed to be...
Doing what you're supposed to be doing isn't the hard part. Dancing with your fear is...
| |
|
Pushing through...
You'll always be either too early or too late. But no matter whether you're right on time, too early or too late, the only thing that'll help you to push through is perseverance...
| |
|
The most important things...
The most important things on your list are probably not even on your list yet. Heck, they probably don't even exist yet...
| |
|
As difficult...
Access to the things we want has never been easier than it is today. At the same time, access to the things we really need has never been as difficult as it is today...
| |
|
How to stay out of trouble
If you can't pay in cash or with a simple wire transfer, you probably can't afford it...
| |
|
Know how to do it
Most people know how to do stuff. But they're too scared to actually really be doing it. That's where huge opportunities can be found...
| |
|
All the stuff you know...
What matters is the stuff you do. And not the stuff you know. Keep that in mind...
| |
|
Gets you freedom...
Education gets you a job. Being able to build something out of nothing gets you freedom...
| |
|
The secret sauce...
Speed when it comes to execution. And patience when it comes to results...
| |
|
Make a plan.
Why? Because right now, you probably don't have a plan. And instead, you just have a dream...
| |
|
What can you do?
Nowadays, it doesn't really matter anymore what you can do. What matters is what you're willing to do...
| |
|
Playing with small stakes
Money isn't the issue. Knowing and really understanding what you're doing is the issue. Because if you don't know and don't really understand what you're doing, you'll always need a hell lot more resources. So the first step should always be to figure out and really understand what you're doing...
| |
|
Chances of success
Don't waste your time avoiding failure because it will ultimately decrease your chances of success...
| |
|
Note to self...
Just because everybody can now do it doesn't mean that everybody will be successful. As a matter of fact, the more people that are doing it, the more people are going to fail. Try to keep that in mind...
