Swinging
I look at content creation in the same way that I look at baseball. I’ve never played baseball but the general concept of hitting is quite intuitive to me. You get 3 strikes in total. You swing at the throws you think you can hit. If the pitcher throws a “ball” which means Continue reading

Stop being negative
Jeff Bezos donated $2 billion to charity last year. And somehow the keyboard warriors of the internet love to point out the bad. “It’s for tax purposes…” Even if it were for tax purposes, does it really matter?

I ate some good food. I “relaxed” and played video games. But my soul was never at peace. Continue reading
