Summary

This might be the most important message I've been focusing on over the last few years. We're so good (especially in America) at exploiting eachother's weaknesses and selling us on ways to get 'better,' and I'm trying to do the reverse. I don't put out all of this content out for you to try and be like me. I'm just trying to give you the cover to use my day as a barometer for you to measure how you're building your success and happiness. At the end of the day, by knowing what you're good at and what makes you happy, and focusing all of your attention on those things, you will win. You don't need to be the best at everything. You just need to do what makes you happy.
