Today marks 6 months since quitting my 9–5 to pursue content + building Bet on yourself, flirt with life, lift weights, and call your mom Worst case, you learn. Best case, you win

I've never written a single line of code To quote Hormozi: You can get “good enough” at almost anything with 20 hours of focused effort The problem is, most people spend a decade delaying the first hour For my idea guys out there, this is the single greatness time in our lives to build ANYTHING Dedicate one weekend, choose one idea that excites you (Mobile Apps, B2C SaaS, Design Agency, AI Small Biz Consulting, Newsletters, etc), and just ship an MVP
