Since 2022, I’ve tried around twenty different business models, from recycling cans to affiliate marketing, I’ve tried it all. In just the eight days of this year so far, I’ve started and tried, three different business models. And just today, it seems like I’ve finally found something that fits all of my parameters, and is promising enough that I genuinely believe it could add an extra 1-2k per month to my income in just six months. But I wouldn’t have found this business opportunity if I wasn’t researching every day, and late into every night, if I wasn’t listening to money podcasts, watching money videos, and instantly trying every business model I saw as a possible money maker. Impatience, greed, and the ego to think that you can pull of anything are looked down upon amongst normal people, but I don’t want to be normal, and neither do you. Act now, work now, research now. You don’t have time to waste.

There is no such thing as “New Year New Me.” If you have to wait until January 1st to change, you don’t have what it takes. I would say start before January first but it’s Jan 6th so that ship has sailed. There is 2 types of people when it comes to New Year’s resolutions: 1. New Year New Me. These are the lazy people who like the idea of changing their life, but end up either giving it a week of effort and giving up, or not trying at all. 2. New Year Same Me. These are the people who have had the same big goals and resolutions for 1,2,3,4,5 years. These people have momentum, evidence, drive, self standards and discipline. They don’t need a I change, they need to level up. They don’t need to go from 0-1, they’re going 2-3, 3-4, 7-8, 12-13. It doesn’t matter what level they’re at, they already on their path, so they don’t change, they don’t 180, they double down. Ask yourself, which one am I? If you’re a “New Year New Me” type of person, you probably have had a very mid start to the year, so become the New Year Same Me type of person. Be on your grind every day of the week, every week of the month, every month of the year, every year of the decade. Its work time, its 2026, you can’t afford to waste another year. Get to work. Sam

Just like everyone confuses discipline with motivation, everyone also confuses laziness with impatience. You can be as disciplined, focused and will-full as you want, if you expect it to happen quickly, you’ll quit.

Every day I wake up, and I immediately check the time, and the first thing I do, is plan my morning. Its second nature, I think about how long it will take me to get dressed, make breakfast, eat breakfast, and then exactly how long I will have to work before I must leave for school or work. Its second nature. The reason it is my first thought of the day, is because I genuinely want to win. I am not the guy that's only mad at the world at 3am, or 6pm, or 9am when school starts. From the second I wake up, to the second I go to sleep, I am thinking about winning. Whether it be in the gym, with content, editing, my habit tracker, how quickly I can make breakfast, or anything other than school work. I want to win. And so, as soon as I catch myself being lazy towards something I want to win at, I get mad, I get self conscious, I get reflective. I identify what i've done, what I should have done, and now, how to make up for my mistakes. So ask yourself, do I really want it? Do I really have what it takes? Am I really going to make it? Or will I yet again be a disappointment to myself and those relying on me.
