Looking 6-7 months back from today, the first time I started taking life into my control, I was determined and confident that I could do whatever I wished to do, and the only thing that could guide me to my destination was knowledge. But a few months after working I realized I wanted something more than knowledge.
In this blog, I will talk about:
What did I realize about myself?
How am I becoming the person I needed the most in the past?
Self Realization
9 months from today was the first time I read a nonfiction book and it has a very special place in my life, the start of everything I am doing today. That book was “RICH DAD POOR DAD”. It made me realize, that my life was not controlled by me rather it was in the hands of society. Everyone I knew had the same mentality. I would have never guessed I was so lost because I was surrounded by such people. But thank god this book came as a miracle in my life.
The next phase was “I want to do something but I don’t know what”. And I am pretty sure this is something everyone who is inspired but lacks the knowledge to build plans. So what was the best place to find instant knowledge? Yes, I went on YouTube.
I must say YouTube is the best and worst place to get knowledge. YouTube is a place where finding a single source of knowledge is very difficult due to various types of individuals and their different “best business model for 2023,24,…30”. And If you find one then there is a huge communication gap between them and you(which can be reduced by paying). You started getting knowledge but you don’t have someone to help or listen to you, what do you do? Join their community. Getting overwhelmed and motivated together were strange feelings I had those days.
Now I searched for someone with the same goals, I got one and I made her my partner but over the long run I realized we don’t have the same beliefs on certain points and since we weren’t earning, it was better to break the partnership.
My realizations of what I wanted.
Single source of knowledge with no catch (like 10% free resources —> paid resources).
Have a partner/friend who may work on a different business from mine but our mentality and vibe match.
This partner has the same vulnerabilities as mine. (Lack discipline, procrastination, knowledge, etc)
Work together to fight our inner enemies together.
I didn’t find anyone and ended up wasting two months sitting idle.
The Person I Am Becoming
What I wanted was a person who is accessible and close to me and at the same time is one or two steps ahead of me and shares valuable insights for free. That’s too much to ask for, but I wanted someone like that. I call this type of person “The mentor buddy”.
I know the world is very big and there are similar people like my past self and now I want to be their mentor buddy. I will learn and share my thoughts behind every decision, the wins and the process behind it, my failures and the mistakes to avoid, and also my vision and my goals.
I will build a community of strong-willed individuals who don’t lack the vision or motivation but lack the environment. To start with I am planning to gather such buddies on X. So if you are someone who wants to work with me can follow me on X and DM me.
That’s all for DAY8.
