Update: Sales: did a roleplay for an offer I’m joining and an interview to join another offer (went terrible but I think I saved it after the call lol) Cooking: did a food shop, gonna start tomorrow Arabic: forgot about it icl Extra: got a job interview for a local job this weekend, working on being grateful for all experiences and using them positively Module 3: With the free time I want to 1. Read (starting with How to Win Friends and Influence People. Very open to recommendations, both fiction and non-fiction) 2. Arabic 3. Work through online courses Module 4: Insane perspective change. During the 5 minutes, I realised I miss when I used to enjoy/appreciate the little things: spending time with friends/family, being immersed in a conversation, going on walks, going to the movies and thinking about nothing else. It’s been so long since I’ve felt present, feeling the moment and just living. It’s kind of hard to make me uncomfortable so the only thing I can think of is a cold shower. The thought of this is literally making my traps tense. Gonna do one tomorrow morning. Might end up leaving the community lol

The hustle culture promise is pure bullshit. "Lock yourself in a room, forget about everyone because they're just distractions — even your family. Exit society for 3 years, then come back as a millionaire with god-like aura while everyone else is stuck in shitty jobs." That's what they sell with all the "online business" and "wifi money" bullshit. But if I strip away all the noise from social media and look at real people I've actually known... the ones who really made it aren't the ones who disappeared. They're the ones who stay in society, socialize, show up, have game, build real connections. Connections are power. Don't confuse the image people have of you with the perception they have of you. Example: Zlatan Ibrahimović. His image is the arrogant footballer who acts like a big shot. If he cared about his image, he'd probably play nice, bow to the fans, donate his money because "it's unfair to earn so much," and act like the humble hero. But he doesn't. He has a massive sense of self. He doesn't give a fuck about anything or anyone. No overwhelming doubts like "Can I score here? What will my teammates say? What would Ronaldo do in this situation?" — those are loser thoughts. Instead, the perception is: this guy is a beast on the field, full of grit, nobody walks over him. If you hate him, he doesn't care. If you love him, he doesn't care. He knows he does his job damn well, and that's enough. I believe this applies perfectly to life and business. You build real aura not by isolating yourself like a monk, but by having a strong identity and not giving a fuck about pleasing everyone — while still moving in the real world. What do you guys think? Have you seen people succeed more by isolating or by building real relationships and staying authentic?

If you're reading this you're one of the first people in here and that means you're shaping what this place becomes. I built this because the comments and DMs I get are all saying the same thing. People know what they should be doing but they're doing it alone and that makes it 10x harder. So this is the place where you're not doing it alone anymore. Introduce yourself. Tell us what you're working on right now, what you're struggling with, what got you here. I hope this becomes a place where people actually talk, not just lurk. The course is in the classroom if you want structure, but the real value is in here. People going through the same stuff, calling each other out, sharing what's working and what isn't. I'll be posting regularly and I hope you do too. Ask questions, share wins, be honest about the days that don't go well. Those posts matter more than the highlight reel ones. Glad you're here.
