@thedankoe I guess my thoughts are really similar with Dan. Working a full time job sucks, so it doesn't matter how long does it take to make a living online

Most people quit because they forget that you have to be bad at something before you can be good at it. It's so obvious. You suck. Of course you're not going to win in 2 weeks. But if you can learn to enjoy extended periods of failure, you will make it very, very far in life.

@LessInMyHead Bro that's a good point. Even YouTube got lots of AI things. The contents are getting cheaper. Even people just talk and film themselves authentically is hard nowadays

Definitely interesting to see the availability of the technology. But i doubt the real value of it. When the internet is flooded with fake AI-made-up stuff, what's in there left for us humans seeking for real connections?

@JacobCEdmunds @devops_nk I guess he means other goals working on in the same time, kind of like the concept of anti-game I first hear from Dan Koe. But I do agree which should have one big goal that spend 80 percent effort and 20 percent to maintain other area in life

@devops_nk What do you mean?

Because I struggle with shiny object syndrome, I created a rule for myself It’s called “The Rule of One” > I’m only allowed to work on one project at a time on one platform at a time I haven’t always been the best at following it, but it’s helped me control myself better I used to start new projects every other week, whether it was a new social media page, a new business, or some other random thing But I always ended up overwhelming myself because I got spread too thin Don’t make the same mistake as me: Learn to put all your focus into achieving one goal and you’ll get there much faster

How would you do differently if you realize you have one and only one live left. Many people act like they have 9 lives. You are not a cat

Principle is the key, methods come in secondary place. If you don't understand the principle, you're basically brainlessly performing trial and error. Principle of advertising is persuasion (which is psychology) Principle of teaching is instant feedback Principle of business is providing value Principle of growth is embracing discomfort. Principle of planning is foreseeing the obstacles. Give me more

Weekend is necessary because it makes rhythm to your days. Every week you have a specific goal, and your aim is to splint it in a single week. And then pause in the weekend, without the proper weekend, you come back with no energy. And your productivity drops week by week

If you can live up to 75 yo, what percentage you have already spent

There's only one thing you should be considering in time management, have time for the most important thing(s)

What is the thing you feel terrible in the first try but becoming much better after several attempts or show up

There is productive guru but there is no consumptive guru. Why? Because everyone is a consumptive expert already. Youtube Shorts, Instagram Reels. You waste day and day being an consumptive expert. Stop Please

How to read a non fiction like self help book, business related book. 1. Understand the concept introduced in the book using the given example. 2. Ask yourself, do these concept relevant to yourself? 3. Come up with an action plan of how you can use the book

Don't feel happy or sad if you win it or lose it. Be happy when you TRY to improve. If it doesn't improve, forget about it and change the approach. Winning at certain moment is just the by product of improvements. And the improvement is just the by product of trying to improve

Don't be fixated on your identity. Identity shapes believes, believes determine your behaviours. It doesn't matter if you change your social media introduction once a month. But you need to tell yourself, you are that type of person you want to become. Get mocked. Get humiliated, it's fine. It is a part of the process

Finding a great teacher can save you thousands hours of practicing the wrong thing

When we are kid, playing video game gives extreme excitement. We can play 10 hours a day in the summer. It fades away when we grow up.

The book is the crystal of the author's mind. The book summary is the crystal of the book. How much do you expect by getting a grain of salt from the Ocean? In the same way, how much do you expect to learn solely relying on watching people's book summary?

I'm not sure it's only happening on myself or not. I don't enjoy leisure time which doesn't consist of goals, such as watching television, playing the sport that I won't be very good at. I always want to have something to learn otherwise it feels like waste of time.
