the psychology of…
Reconnecting with old friends, had me realize now that I am mid 30’s how fast time has gone by. One idea bootstrapped into another into… a sea of noise with very little signal. Action creates its own reward I believe, and for that I just have to think really hard on the outcomes.
First:
Simplify- I tend to make shit too complicated. In my past I have focused on developing businesses that do not scale. Now I am focused on creating process and solutions around it.
Two:
No noise. I have in short cut out my social life here in Manila. Absolutely 100%, the noise and distractions are not really worth it. I am building something here, I have great friends ok so they live in London, North Sydney, SF, and Chicago… My focus is quality not Quantity.
Three:
Faster iteration cycles. Get Feedback and ACT on it. Seek feedback then act, seek more results then act.
Four:
LEARN MORE ABOUT THE SHIT YOU HATE DOING. I don’t like doing Search, I think its boring as Bat Shit. But I also realise I need to get the hell out of my comfort zone, social media design and I need to NAIL the nuts and bolts about PPC, CPA and CPV. THIS IS WHERE YOU TAKE YOUR IDEA AND MAKE CASH.
Five:
Invest in my relationships with my time and love. Time is the most precious thing I have. I want to invest everything I have into the relationships, all of them of those that are in my life.
Six:
Stop doing stupid shit. Bad relationships, people that do not add value or love. Like going out, drinking too much, getting wasted, its foolish. Not that I really partied in the past few years- but for those of my friends who do I really need to distance. Life is too short to have a 5 alarm hangover.
Seven:
Hang in there.
Selah.
