I posted something yesterday talking about how I hit $25k MRR.

Then I got dozens of DMs. Some from people who genuinely wanted advice.

But some others are depressed that they’re not rich. “How can I hit $25k MRR? I hate my life rn!”

Can we please take a chill pill and stop watching hustle porn?! I failed countless businesses. I cried so many nights cause I convinced myself I was a failure.

I have friends who are worth $10M+ by age 21. I have friends who are worth $10M+ by age 31. And I have friends who are worthless.

It’s fucking different for everyone. No need to be depressed or angry at yourself. Just keep learning and growing. I made some of my best friends in the process of building (and failing) my businesses.

Do people not build businesses for fun anymore? Do we have to immediately flex on Instagram in order to be validated?

I used to be one of those who spent hours on end watching videos about how people made money.

Some will say, "I made 1m in 3 months doing this." Or "I finally hit my 10k a day goal" and that got me feeling sad.

Yes, I knew that those numbers are possible to hit, but I panicked every time because I did not know where to start from.

So, I watched videos after videos, but did nothing.

I wish I had stopped watching those. Maybe, I would have gone far by now in my own hustle.

Anyways, better late than never ✌🏽
