Greetings All,
I'm on the cusp of finishing up the second MJ book, "Unscripted ". Love the book.
So let me tell you what I'm not...
I'm not hyped up to be the next "BIG" thing and have no visions of grandeur, I know from my past attempts this is really hard-shit, yep the blueprint is there, but you're going to have to get used to being uncomfortable and bleeding white. I know what's he's saying and can appreciate the message and respect the warning > proceed with extreme caution and don't get all giggly that your going to be rich if your willing to work your a$$ off, your not, you might and you could, but your going to have feel the mental pain like you've never imagined existed and it really sucks. MJ got his a$$ handed to him quite a few times before he cracked the code and that took years, Can you handle getting your a$$ kicked for years?
So, I'm gonna stick my chin out there and ask your thoughts, it's not a business plan, I'd like to call it my expedition map. Like Ray Dalio said something like this in his book "Principles", "You're going to have to go into the jungle and have to get to the other side and there are many things in the jungle that can kill you. Check your equipment list and be prepared to make changes "
Fair enough thank you, Ray ( nice guy), so as I prepare for my Arctic expedition with the likes of Shackleton, here's my first map;
Education > read more and more, I already read a lot but I got some new a$$-kicking books recommended by forum members, so this is my getting to know the terrain part.
Yeah, I can't see myself waiting to read the ten books about shit I have little to no knowledge about and sit on the bench waiting for all of it to make sense if it does at all, kind of like playing pocket pool. So, I need a little more action and adventure, Wordpress seems like a good piece of equipment, so I'm signing up for Wordpress and get familiar with the unknown and bump into all kinds of stuff, just like learning how to drive.
I'll never look at another website the same, so I'll spend some time poking around at websites and see how my new perspective translates into how to build my ship.
Work on some writing skills, I'm pretty good with content in my own head, but I'll stick my chin out there and let the market decide if I'm a legend in my own mind or maybe my principles of managing people have value, talk about a crowded field, yikes!!
Maybe publish a short E-book on Amazon for cheap, I'll never know the temperature unless I'm willing to stick my toe in the water. I'd prefer the opportunity to maybe get a hit opposed to sitting on the bench, I wanna get in the game. I know, my grammatical form sucks, but so did Hemingway's.
Okay, round one, fire away, I'm ready for a good old fashion a$$-kicking of thoughts.
