I’ve always been a hustler.
But I used to hustle towards the wrong things.
- Chasing girls.
- Cheating on tests.
- Drinking a case of beer.
- Vandalizing the community.
I love being a hustler.
When directed towards worthy endeavors.
- Improving skills.
- Creating content.
- Building community.
- Investing in relationships.
Everyone is hustling towards something.
What’s your something?
I suck at almost everything.
And so do you.
Once I recognized that I suck at 99% of things.
It liberated me to go all-in on my superpowers.
- Curious
- Consistent
- Capable
It’s why I’m obsessed with podcasting.
- I’m insanely curious about my guests.
- I never miss an episode.
- I’m resourceful as hell.
What are your superpowers?
How can you go all-in on them?
Everyone talks about community.
But here’s what most people don’t tell you.
Don’t be the biggest fish in the pond.
It leaves you no room to grow.
Back in my hometown in Minnesota.
I was a big fish in a small pond.
It was great for my ego.
But terrible for my potential.
- ”Look at how great you’re doing!”
- ”Look at how awesome your life is!”
- ”Look at all the things you’ve accomplished!”
But secretly, I knew that I was capable of more.
Moving to Austin showed me how much more there is to grow.
It dropped me into a big lake full of sharks.
It forced me to eat or be eaten.
Find the community that challenges you.
And then lean in.
Take home point…
- Everyone is hustling towards something.
- Go all-in on your superpowers.
- Lean into the communities that challenge you.
