Commitment is unnatural

Change is the only constant

Commitment is a commitment to change alongside a constant

*Thread*
Commiting to owning a home does not mean it will never need repairs & remodeling

New furniture to meet your new tastes

Moving things around to accommodate new additions to the family

Changing alongside the constant of your home
"Discovery is not always in seeking new landscapes, but seeing the landscape with new eyes"

If you commit to building a business

You won't always have that same feeling & level of commitment

Your perspectives will need to change

What motivated you day 1 might no longer be it
You may need a new motivation 3 years into it

When you commit to a business you'll always need to adapt to changing demands

Changing strategies, tactics, staff, audiences, trends, economies

You commit to the larger vision, not the specifics
Relationships are the same

You commit to changing alongside the constant of that person

Like the home, like the business

Motivation may change
Tastes may change

To see the landscape with new eyes

Is to constantly fall in love with someone partially new
If you seek the previous landscape & attach your love to that

You will always need to seek out a new landscape

If you seek a business that will always feel right

You will always need to seek out a new landscape
It is not the decision that makes you right

It's YOU who makes the decision right

No matter what you commit to
There will be remodeling

Re-learning
Re-motivation
Re-igniting passion
Reconfiguring strategy & tactics

You commit to change alongside a constant
The constant you choose holds some weight

Far greater than the constant is YOU & your ability to adapt & change

It is not things that make you great
It is YOU that makes things great

Decent opportunities become great opportunities when great people take decent opportunities

Quantity is the path to quality

Large enough data size is required to identify patterns

- Discard what’s not working

- Extract & implement what’s working

- Consciously doing it until it becomes the default

- Level up is then completed, then repeat the process
The worst yet common thing to do

Is assume a pattern (quality about ourselves)

Without enough data for a pattern to exist

What may have been a one off instance or fluke mistake

Then gets interpreted as a character fault that you don’t actually even have
Taking 100 shots
Posting 10-20 pieces of content
21+ days on a nutrition plan

Then you can make accurate evaluations

Dieting for 1 day is not enough to determine its effects on how you feel

Posting 1 article is not enough to show what topics/styles the audience resonates with

I had a limiting belief that using strategy makes you inauthentic

How I view it now:

Using strategy to:
- Make sure it's received how you want it to be

- Tweak the packaging of the message so it gets the attention it deserves

Entirely changing the message is inauthentic
Saying what you were already going to say

While also:

- Keeping it simple
- Engaging
- Not wasting their time/rambling
- Algorithm optimized to hook attention at start

Those subtle tweaks don't change the core message

tbh it's being respectful of their experience consuming it
What's mad cringe & inauthentic

Is when you can tell...

The entire message itself is crafted to please

Intentional polarizing, VERY surface level to appeal to more people

-Copying what's already been said & got high engagement

We all see right through their intentions lol

Constant drastic deviations in

- Blood sugar levels
- Brainwave Stimulation
- Content/Food consumption

Means drastic variations of mood

Commitment is dependent on state

Keeping promises to yourself
( in 4 tweets ) 👇🏼
Let’s assign numbers to make it clear

If your daily range of state is between -10 & 10

When you’re feeling 10 you’re motivated & big thinking

Those ideas are anchored to the state of 10

At 6-10 you resonate with it

Under 4 it stops resonating with you
This is why it’s difficult to commit

1) The decision was made in a high emotion state

2) That state is far from the default

3) The daily range is too wide

📁 Solution:

1) Make decisions & plans in a more neutral state

(which is why people do it before bed)

🧔🏽 "be more disciplined & rational"

🧔🏽 "do what scares you, take a risk, follow your bliss"

Which is right?
BOTH

What is 'wrong' is what both seek to point you away from

...the middle (a thread) ⬇️ Image
The picture above is the barbell strategy

A investment strategy which very simply put allocates

80-90% in the low risk/low reward

10-20% in the high risk/high reward

Avoiding everything in the middle
💵 Income Example:

30-40 hour a week job or contract work

Stable, not too demanding

The type of job where once you step out the door there is no additional work

Bonus if it's aligned to a interest of yours

- Lust starts as a intense craving

Getting weaker as the craving gets filled

- Love starts as a slight curiosity

Getting stronger over time

Opposites attract, it seeks to fill a lack

INTENSE desire before getting to know someone

Is trying to fill a lack
The lack gets filled as you spend time together

Then all attraction disappears

The purpose of that relationship is done

Zero desire for each other

Love does not originate from lack
Same is true for money

Which is why we always see guys make a ton of money

Then once the lack is filled

Hop online & talk about how “money is not everything” & wont make you happy

1) You desire a change from the familiar

2) You venture into the unfamiliar

3) You adapt to the unfamiliar

4) It becomes familiar & you return to where you started with new adaptations

Results are reflections of who you had to become
⬇️ *THREAD* ⬇️
The novelty wears off over time

Which then makes you desire the next change

From either inspiration or desperation
Curiosity or discontent

Expression - Fall
Experimentation - Winter
Integration - Spring
Transcendence - Summer
- We are wired to conserve energy
- We are wired to fear the unknown

The mind will not release the resources you need until it sees the immediate demand

It won't adapt until you lift the weight

It won't give surplus oxygen/blood flow until you start running
