You Are Your Choices
I saw it so many times, people complaining about their situation but watching endless hours of shitty TV at the same time, whining that they are not making enough while wasting money on iPhones and bling-bling when their only source of income is a McDonald's job instead of saving or investing that money.
Most of the people, out of 16 waking hours, besides using 8 for their job, they are wasting the other eight on stuff that will not pay them anything back like watching TV, reading about Kim Kardashian's latest ass surgery, playing video games or just looking at how “amazing” some people’s lives are on Facebook or Instagram.
Scroll-downers crying that they don’t have enough time to do what they love, their relationships are shitty or that they hate their lives when all they do with their free time is to waste it.
Fortunes are not built within the working hours nor the working days but on weekends, free days and spare time. Don’t expect to change your situation if all you’re willing to give away is eight hours per day in a job; you have to invest more time. Outwork everybody, and you’ll be the best, no weekends, no holidays and no spare time until you make it.
Stop Fucking Complaining
If you choose to waste your precious time on useless shit that will not pay you anything but only steals from you the only thing that you can’t get more of, time, then don’t you dare fucking complain about your current situation, if you don’t enjoy your life, change it. It’s that simple, life seems so complicated but in fact is simple.
You are not making enough money? Get a second job even a third job, don’t sleep at all. Save everything, cut off your TV, reduce your phone bills, sell your iPhone and get a shitty phone with buttons, sell your car and downsize from an apartment to a small studio apartment. Invest everything you have in something that you believe in. If you’re not willing to pay the price for greatness and spend only 50% of what you make instead of 150%, then do not dare to cry that you don’t have enough money.
Are your relationships shitty? Find a mentor and learn everything that you can learn about human psychology and relationships, read, watch, listen and most important put everything in practice. Are you not willing to spend 4 hours on stuff like these? Quit watching TV, playing video games and scrolling down on Instagram, quit wasting your time with useless shit and invest all of your spare time into improving yourself. If you are not willing to cut off all the distractions, don't you dare fucking whine that you can’t get laid.
Do you want to make something on Steem? Go out there, make hundreds of comments every day, spend endless hours on Discord just talking with people because you like it, join communities and projects, work for free, help around and post a lot. If you’re not willing to spend 10 hours per day on this platform, do not fucking complain that you’re a minnow and you’re not making any money.
And so on, so on.
Conclusion
What I’m trying to say is that you have to put in the work if you want to accomplish something, you are your choices. If you choose to use your time wisely and invest it in meaningful stuff, then it will pay you back tremendously in the future. But don’t you dare fucking cry that you haven’t accomplished your goals if you’re still scrolling down on Instagram and watching fucking TV.
You can’t change your past, but if you don’t enjoy your current situation, you can take action and choose to do something worthy of your time. Maybe a few years or months from now you will look back at this moment, proudly that you decided to ditch all the stupid shits from your life and take action.
I’m talking from experience only; I did not get here by whining but by putting in the work and taking action. I'm making one grand on a single post this week at the current price so don't you dare tell me that this is not going to work for you.
You can accomplish what you want but there’s a price that you have to pay but if you’re not willing to pay it don’t you dare fucking cry that you’re not doing well.
