Back in December of 2022 I had the big goal of getting financially free to retire my mother.
So just like every teenager that wants to get free, I went onto youtube.
After countless videos, I watched of “The Top 7 ways to make money online.”
I decided I would go with dropshipping.
I had so much motivation to do this because it was something new.
I would get high and spend a couple hours a day researching drop shipping.
I believed that weed wasn’t holding me back but even after countless pages of notes I hardly remembered a thing and never looked back at the notes.
Eventually I got bored of doing research and just went back to getting high and watching tv.
But then one Friday night came.
I had been sober for about three days and I seen my notebook laying there.
I decided to pick it up and refresh myself from all the notes.
I thought I knew everything there was about dropshipping and I was ready to start my business.
My plan was to start the next day since I didn’t have school.
I was Hyped up for the remainder of the night while watching tv.
Until about 10:00 pm.
I was still lying there watching tv except I was now bored.
But My best friend just texted me(who was also a heavy stoner.)
“Do you want to come over and play some video games?”
I responded with yeah sure because I was bored and I figured I could stay there until about midnight then come home and get some good rest.
I get to his house and as I am plugging in my ps4 I here the terpins of the rig spinning.
My friend was already doing a dab and we haven’t even been back to his house yet.(If you don’t know a Dab is a very high thc form of weed)
I turned around and got hit with a cloud of smoke but I didn’t go into the urges. I sat down and started playing some call of duty.
After a few games go by we decide to take a break because we are kinda getting bored.
I go to use the bathroom and as I am coming back into the room my friend is loading up his fattest dab of the night. This thing was twice the size of a normal one.
He takes two fat rips and starts coughing his lung up but he didn’t finish but half of the dab.
So he did what he always does.
Hands me the rig and struggles to say “finish this shit”
Out of habit and urges I reach a finish the rest of the dab in one hit.
It hits me immediately.
But I don’t stop there.
I had him load me up a dab that was the size of the one he just did so I could show him up.
I relapsed again.
All thoughts about starting that drop shipping business went out the window.
I ended up staying at my friend's house til 5:00 am and smoking all night.
By the time I got home I fell asleep and slept for a majority of the day.
It is safe to say that the drop shipping business didn’t get started because everytime that it was time for me to do the hard work I would run back to being comfortable.
It had nothing to do with the business, it had everything to do with me and my habits.
You need to fix yourself before you can start to think about running a business.
No matter what you believe that smoking “helps you focus,” or “makes you more productive,”
It doesn’t.
It only feels that way because your normal focus and productivity is shit and I am going to guess it is like that because of how much you have smoked.
Fix yourself. Quit weed.
I hope this is what you needed to hear because this is definitely what I needed to hear back then.
If you have quit weed, are quitting weed, or still smoking weed. DM me or comment let’s have a chat.
But until then,
Quit Weed. Dream Big. Get Rich.
