Good post
Hustle culture is retarded
But plenty of people are miserable and being miserable clouds your judgment. It makes you think being more miserable, by never sleeping or relaxing or having conversations that aren’t “about money”, is the way to become less miserable.
The people who really have it figured out are the ones who maximize the return on their time invested, not the ones who invest all their time

Y'all nyggas be listening to these Gurus foreal?! I thought the shy was entertainment
This is true. I can give a testimony. Im currently taking a hiatus (maybe forever) from content creating, being a "voice" and a "influencer". After a decade + im burned out. and that's me keeping it a buck.
Never claimed to be a guru tho lmao ... Im just a dirty delaware N1gga with a following

Sooo what this guy is saying is to not try? I hate this mentality. Not everyone is going to be world class at something they dedicate their lives to. But if you never dedicate yourself to something you eliminate the possibility of being world class completely. Also, even if you don’t become world class, you likely still become good enough at something to make a career out of it, or at the very least develop the resilience, mindset, habits, and attitudes to become successful at something else.
These outliers are human beings just like you and me. And no, we won’t all be outliers. But you have to give yourself a chance by trying.
And I’ve been around a ton of successful people (millionaires/billionaires, pro athletes, olympians, politicians, etc.) and let me tell you, there’s a formula. Genetics and environmental opportunity play a role, and in the case of something like athletics genetics plays a huge role, but so does simply showing up and doing the right things everyday over time. A lot of it is just consistent effort in the right places compounding over time. Most people just ain’t built for that, to make those sacrifices.
Yall ever spent time around a student who gets 85% on everything? They’re smart and work hard. Now spend some time around the student who gets 95%-100% on everything, they’re also smart but they work MUCH harder than the 85% student. And they get the results to match.
Of course, it all depends on what you want out of life. If you want to be hyper successful, there’s a trade off and you will have to sacrifice things. There’s no way around it.
All this to say — choose the life you want. But don’t diminish the efforts of those who put it all on the line to try.

I’m always creeped out by these so-called gurus.
It’s like when I would see Tony Robbins commercials in the 90s. Like, dude. Who are you and what have you done to be advising all these people?
I don’t know shyt about Gary Vee. Has he created a successful product or company BEFORE he started getting famous for telling everyone how to live their lives?
I dunno, man. This shyt is goofy AF to me.
At least if you listen to Warren Buffett, that guy ran a real enterprise.

Its a hustle . In the words of Money Making Mitch
No training, expertise, or talent required. Just set up a camera and hope that your content resonates with enough people out there. Of course, millions of people will go for it.
fukk it.

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
My boss talks to Gary V often. It works for him, but it's not sustainable for most. Find your passion and find your balance. That's the sweet spot and what everyone should reasonably aspire to.
