TIL: problems, galaxies & deals - Growth of Influence

A really fascinating concept in life is that we never run out of problems.

We only trade your problems with better ones.

Think about this for a moment.

Instead of seeing problems as bad, think of them as the only way to get what you want in life.

When starting out, an influencer might struggle to get followers. Later, they might have to manage brand deals. These new problems show they are growing. It’s important to focus on the big problems, keep learning new things, and work with others to find good solutions.

Better problems mean you are doing well.

They help you grow and get stronger.

Use this idea to keep moving forward, turning each challenge into a chance to succeed and level up in the game of life.

THINGS I’VE LEARNED

1.
What is the one fact about the universe that blows your mind?

In the observable universe, there are approximately 2 trillion galaxies. That’s 2,000,000,000,000 galaxies.

To put that in perspective, imagine each galaxy is roughly the size of the Milky Way, which contains about 400 billion stars.

A typical galaxy spans over 100,000 light-years across, and with 2 trillion galaxies in the observable universe, the scale is truly mind-boggling.

It’s important to remember that the observable universe is just a small fraction of the entire universe, which might be infinite. What lies beyond what we can see is unknown, and the sheer scale of the universe is almost impossible to visualize.

2.
“To be is to do.”

Socrates figured things out way back.

We are not our thoughts. We are not our emotions. We are not our past.

We are our actions.

GROW YOUR INFLUENCE

Everything in life is the same thing.

Everything starts with a person getting into a room and starts talking.

Finding a boyfriend or girlfriend? You get into a room (physical or digital) and you start talking.

Finding your next paid brand deal? You get into a room (usually digital) and you start talking.

If there is one thing I’d suggest you consider getting good at, is talking.

How can you get better at talking?

a) Record yourself talking about something.

b) Watch yourself talking.

c) Feel an intense sense of discomfort (yep, this will probably be part of the journey).

d) Note down all the things you could have said better.

The problem is that few are willing to put in the work.

That’s why few people make progress in life.

If you want to grow your influence, this one is for you!
