Action.
Consistent trying can change your mind.
A worthwhile search.
Plug and play.
Obsession is your ultimate advantage.
Be aware if you have too many answers.
It creates momentum and keeps the flame alive for your dream.
A great product is essential, but great marketing is optional.

More tasks. More switching. More lost time.

Start with what you have.
Small things can have immense value.
A day in the life of most people.
Earn your tools.

Curiosity is the ultimate cheat code. It makes learning effortless and turns hard work into play. While others force focus, you’re pulled in naturally.
“There are some people who naturally uplift our energy - the trick is finding them.” – Ali Abdaal
Is there a better way?
Deliver. Overdeliver. Never underdeliver.
Notification came, and the focus went.
Procrastination that feels like “work”.
No discomfort? No breakthoguhs.
Doing is overestimated. Quitting is underestimated.
The tipping point for growth.
Love has more patience, so pursue projects that excite you.
Breakthroughs take time.
