What a job looks like from the outside (or worse, on TV) is rarely what it’s like on the inside. That’s not to say it’s worse, just different.
The Algebra of Wealth
Scott Galloway
When someone starts talking about what they “always” or “usually” or “never” or “would” do, they are giving you generic and hypothetical fluff. Follow The Mom Test and bring them back to specifics in the past. Ask when it last happened, for them to talk you through it, how they solved it, and what else they tried. The world’s most deadly fluff is: “I would definitely buy that.”
The Mom Test
Rob Fitzpatrick
Do consistent work, work hard a little bit every day, and work harder and longer when it feels effortless.
Take advantage of opportunities that are right in front of you. You never know what can happen when you are building something that helps people.
You could get a chance to work with someone who is high-profile in your industry. Or, you get a hot moment on social media. Or, you have a breakthrough idea that will revolutionize how you generate income.
Go for it. Do the thing. Put in the work.
And after it’s done, get back to consistent small chunks of daily work.
