To win in 2024 you don’t need to do anything fancy. You just have to be able to keep to working hard without seeing the reward for your hard work without losing enthusiasm for the work you do.

You don't need to have an opinion on everything. You can opt out of any societal discussion no matter how important people think it is. And in most cases, you should. Focus on being happy, not on being "right".

Rejection is a funny thing. The anticipation of it is much worse than experiencing it. And you feel good about yourself even if you get shot down because you know you took the shot and have the peace of not having to wonder "what if."

If you want to write for a living full-time and you like writing, your timeline for success should be infinite. I was content to write for as long as it took.

2 years ago I wrote my first blog post. It was TERRIBLE. But I loved the process. So I kept writing - even though no one was reading. And now I have 100000 followers and my dream business. When you find a skill you love, give it your all. The internet rewards the obsessed.
