BuildAfterWork

Llevas meses queriendo un segundo ingreso. You've been thinking about a second income for months. Y siguen siendo solo pensamientos. And they're still just thoughts.

La clase trabajadora ha normalizado aguantar. Aguantar el tráfico. Aguantar al jefe. Aguantar jornadas largas. Aguantar sueldos bajos. Y al mismo tiempo, muchos sueñan con trabajar menos días… cuando el problema no siempre es cuántos días trabajan. Sino todo lo que han aprendido a aceptar como “normal”. El cambio no empieza cuando se trabaja menos. Empieza cuando dejan de conformarse.

@IbaiLlanos La gente llama “milagro” a lo que no vio que construiste durante meses.

LOS MILAGROS EXISTEN.

@nahuemon No necesitas historias. Necesitas un plan. La mayoría no cambia a los 30+ porque espera sentirse listo… y nunca pasa. Empiezan cuando tienen un sistema, aunque sea imperfecto. Si te sirve, ya armamos uno simple de 30 días por acá. 🔗Link en Bio, 100% gratis.

necesito consumir historias de gente que cambia radicalmente su trabajo de mierda post 30 y empieza a ser feliz o sino arranco con las drogas duras

@SahilBloom People don’t want this routine. They want the freedom behind it. Big difference.

Actual Saturday in the life of this mid-30s guy in the suburbs: 4:30am - wake up 5am - 12 mile run 6:30am - lift 8am - cook breakfast for family 9-5pm - activities w/ family 5pm - cook dinner for family 6pm - sauna 6:30pm - movie w/ family 8pm - sleep Wouldn’t change a thing.

@InsideLucysHead Everyone laughed… because they were looking at the move, not the strategy. Sometimes the smartest decisions look stupid to people who don’t understand the game.

A blonde woman walks into a bank in London before going on vacation and asks for a £5,000 loan... The banker asks, "Okay, miss, is there anything you would like to use as collateral?"Rolls-Royce The woman says, "Yes, of course. I'll use my Rolls Royce." The banker, stunned, asks, "A £250,000 Rolls-Royce? Really?" The woman is completely positive. She hands over the keys as the bankers and loan officers laugh at her. They check her credentials and make sure she is the title owner. Everything checks out. They park it in their underground garage for two weeks. When she comes back, she pays off the £5,000 loan as well as the £15.41 interest. The loan officer says, "Miss, we are very appreciative of your business with us, but I have one question. We looked you up and found out that you are a multi-millionaire. Why would you want to borrow £5,000?" The woman replies, "Where else in London can I park my car for two weeks for only £15.41 and expect it to be there when I return?"

@Mr_Husky1 Some people carry everyone else’s weight and still feel alone. They show up for everyone… while slowly disappearing themselves. Make sure the life you’re building doesn’t cost you the people you love.

My son, Tom, died by suicide in 2015 at 16 years old. A classmate followed seven months later. Today, as I was recounting the aftermath to trusted friends, a supressed memory surfaced. After his classmate died by suicide, someone said to me, "I can understand why Tom died, because he was not very popular, but I can't figure out why (name redacted) did, because everyone loved her. I am glad I did not remember that statement until I was better equipped to process it. My son was not popular, but he was the kid others came to when they needed someone with which to talk. He was loving, helpful, intelligent, creative, punny, and sensitive. He lived authenticly, even when his anxiety ramped up. I loved him unconditionally and miss him terribly. 💛 By star1670

@Dan1876 You’re 34… but to your mom you’re still someone she’s protecting. Now ask yourself: who’s protecting your future?

I’m 34

@YourWaifu420 @welp_max The point isn’t to work harder. The point is to stop relying on one thing to carry your entire life.

@BuildAfterWork @welp_max Then what’s the fucking point?

dead ass bc it doesn’t

@blablabaa33 @Bitcoin_Teddy People don’t stay in bad environments because they don’t know their worth. They stay because they depend on them.

@BuildAfterWork @Bitcoin_Teddy If you know your worth you would be in the best environment. Your frequency attracts that of the same.

A father told his daughter, "Congrats on your graduation. I bought you a car a while back. I want you to have it now." Before I give it to you, take it to a car dealer in the city and sell it. See how much they offer.” The girl came back to her father & said: "They offered me $10,000 dollars because it looks very old" Father said: "Ok, now take it to the pawn shop". The girl returns to her father & said: "The pawn shop offered $1,000 dollars because it's a very old car & a lot of work done". The father told her to join a passionate car club with experts & show them the car. The girl drove to the passionate car club. She returned to her father after a few hours & told him, “Some people in the club offered me $100k because its a rare car that's in good condition.” Then the father said, "I wanted to let you know that you are not worth anything if you are not in the right place. If you are not appreciated, do not be angry, that means you are in the wrong place. Don't stay in a place where no one sees your value ." The moral of the story : Know your worth and know where you are valued. A diamond doesn't shine on the bottom of a cave.

This is a masterclass in control. They don’t fire you. They remove your relevance. No tasks. No access. No purpose. But just enough salary to keep you there. Psychologically, it’s powerful: humans tolerate uncertainty longer than rejection. Statistically, the outcome is the same: you exit… just without leverage. Lesson: The risk was never losing the job. The risk is needing it. Build something that doesn’t depend on someone slowly deciding you’re no longer needed.

“Let me tell you one bad thing about working in Japan. In Japan you don’t get fired from your place of work, rather you get ostracized. They won’t give you sack letter; they disengage you, they take responsibilities from you. You won’t be assigned any task. If you have a login ID, they will change your password so you can’t access your PC. So you will come to work and be siting around. No one will engage you, but the company will still be paying your salary. If you quit on your own, you won’t be entitled to government unemployment benefits. If you’re sacked, the government will be paying you employment benefits till you get a new job.” — Lady says.

@Kekius_Sage Your job is not security. It’s a subscription someone else can cancel.

🚨 Recent surveys show people, especially Gen Z, no longer believe hard work guarantees a better life.

In honor of Twitter’s 20th anniversary, what’s your favorite tweet of all time?

@ByViral24 @LaRegiaReal 🔴 ¿Están sentados? La gente no busca seguridad. Busca no pensar en el riesgo.

🔴🇨🇴ESTÁN SENTADOS?

@PopBase My favorite tweet? “Your job is not security. It’s a subscription someone else can cancel. Freedom starts when you have more than one income.”

Twitter turns 20. What is your favorite tweet of all time?

@KeruboSk Truth doesn’t care what makes you comfortable.

My cousin’s wife got pregnant while he was working abroad. The math wasn’t mathing, but he forced himself to trust her. When the baby was born, it looked exactly like him. Same face. Same everything. Everyone told him to let it go. But he couldn’t sleep. So he did a DNA test in secret. 0%. Now he stares at that baby every day, wondering how someone who isn’t his… looks more like him than he does.

¿En qué modo estás hoy ?

@militoritoRC Nadie planea el colapso. Solo repite hábitos hasta que es inevitable.

me llamaron de un piso porque "tenian la cocina tapada" no pueden ser tan cavernícolas en una oficina hermano

Most people think life is about what you do in the obvious moments. Your job. Your “main effort.” Your visible work. But it’s not. It’s the small, invisible habits… repeated every day. The “extra” spending. The wasted hours. The comfort decisions no one sees. Just like calories, it’s not what you notice… it’s what you ignore that shapes the outcome. People say “I’m trying” the same way they say “I don’t eat that much.” But results don’t lie. Your life is the sum of what you consistently consume— time, money, attention. Choose better inputs.

At one point in college, I had an obese roommate. After a few weeks, she complained about how lucky I was to be thin, since I ate more than her. The thing is, however, that I absolutely did not eat more than her, in terms of calories or just amount of food. She put ranch on everything. 600 calorie drinks. Endless snacking. Maybe my plate was more full than hers at dinner, but it was obvious tp everyone but her that she was consuming more throughout the day. I'm sorry, but after multiple instances of this happening with other overweight people, I just don't trust when someone heavy insists they're in caloric deficit. Maybe some people lose weight faster than others. For sure. But it's simple science that if calories out exceed calories in, you WILL lose weight.
