How many hours a day do you spend on the coli?
I did that with quitting video gaming from 2004 to 2011 when I was in school and finding a job. Sacrificing may *sometimes* be beneficial to your particular situation, no human being can do that for extended periods of time.
At one point, my parents were concerned about my mental health because I was working 3 part time jobs and working 7 days a week. Made decent money during the Great Recession, but burnt out and never did my hobbies.
Finally settled in from late 2011 onwards, but that time was brutal on my mental health.

Easily less than an hour. There's days when I don't even check it. Which kind of sucks because there was a time I was so intentionally disconnected that the coli was the only website id check into. No news sites, no music sites, no game sites, no fitness sites, just hit up the coli, read through the threads in the booth, the tunnel, the ring, higher learning, the gym, tlr.
I have a couple threads bookmarked and I usually hit them up to see if they have new responses. (Book threads, guitar threads, fitness threads, chess threads, gun thread).
There are days where I hit the bookmarks and there's nothing new and I'm on and off in less than 120 seconds.
My favorite threads are about people (users) doing shyt, fitness, finance, reading, photography, music...if they are up here posting about it, living their truth, I see it and I respect it, and instead of just reading I go out and put my own work in. Grinding, staying active and when I can I'll put my two cents in. I used to go ham on posting. Today is going to be 55, im going to run 10k for the fukk of it. There was a time id post the stats and video all up in there but, we're past that.
I'm all about actually doing something that translates to progress, whether reading (books), challenging myself (chess, fitness), learning skills (java/css/front end stack).
Id like to think that most people that have been in this forum for more than 2 years obtained some new hobby or pursued something because of something they read or saw frequently here, and I'm not talking bout eating ass and pawging but legitimate shyt. We really do have a lot of talented and experienced people here, one can be inspired or motivated easily if they know where to look.

Message! I can attest to this myself.
It’s all hustle culture bullshyt. To be honest the most successful people don’t have to really work hard their resources like capital work harder for them than they ever have to.
If you had the capital you could make more off one stock pick that the average American makes in a year and it wouldn’t matter if you watched a football game or not.
Hustle culture just sells people dreams. I don’t even know who the guy is that the OP posted but chances are he’s selling a product about success online or selling people on the secrets of success and that’s how he’s becoming wealthy.
I didn't watch the video but there probably is a grift somewhere, like you said "by my patreon and I'll tell you how to become successful and financially stable!"
But there's a market for people that'll keep putting their money down until something clicks. You do have to sacrifice a little bit of yourself, even if you enjoy it to get ahead. While mfs are watching football, having a beer, going on vacation, you gotta study, or focus and do whatever your thing is....making beats, practicing or learning, working 2 jobs, studying, working out.
Most people look at the success and don't acknowledge or review the behind the scenes work.
Did Kanye really lock himself in a room doing 5 beats a day for 3 summers? Were the Beatles really playing for hours in loud bars for no pay that just let them play live while people drank and talked? I've heard stories about a few NBA legends the name always changes they'd go to the park after practice, often alone and just shoot jumpers and shyt or walk around town all day dribbling and because of that they were that much better than their peers to make to the NBA or reach a championship, exhibit exemplary skill or set some sort of record.
Today mfs was the goal but rather than grind it out they want the shortcut, the cheat code. I might not be the best, I might not have the skills or talent but who do I know, who can I partner with...etc.
The cheat code is start investing as early and as often as possible. When you graduate from high school live with your parents rent free as long as possible (if college than community college for the first few years) and use that to stack bread and invest. Delay having children as long as possible. Compound interest will handle the rest.
Problem is we aren’t told this as kids.

I get his intent, or at least I think I know where he's coming from. If all your doing is watching TV, spending all day on social media, etc but your life is a mess, I get. If you got your shyt together, family is good, your healthy, etc and you want to relax and watch sports, a sitcom, etc on TV for a few hours, play COD, 2k, Madden, etc then enjoy yourself.
