How I changed my life 1. I started writing online, even when no one was reading. 2. I started using the internet like a lab testing ideas, aesthetics, and workflows to see what clicked. 3. I began treating every conversation as either energy-giving or energy-draining, then designed my life around the givers. 4. I started screenshotting things that sparked curiosity and treating them like startup seeds. 5. I stopped hanging out with people who rolled their eyes at my ideas and started surrounding myself with builders who said "you should ship that." 6. I realized no one was coming to save my ideas or hand me opportunities. So I picked myself, grabbed my laptop, and kept building until something stuck. 7. I stopped asking “Is this good?” and started asking “Did this create motion?”. 8. I began saying no to everything that felt like should and yes to everything that felt like curiosity. 9. I built things I wanted to exist, then let strangers on the internet shape them. 10. I stopped treating social media like entertainment and started using it like distributionI started naming my projects like brands, even when they were just docs. 11. I began creating systems that worked while I slept. I started valuing quiet ambition over loud mediocrity. 12. I started showing up like it mattered and eventually, it did. 13. I started building things that worked without me, then using that freedom to build bigger things. 14. I started treating my brain like a search engine feeding it better inputs so it could generate better outputs. 15. I realized that building wealth and building happiness use the same playbook: compound what works, eliminate what doesn't, and stay in the game long enough for magic to happen.
