Stop trying to change the world and chill

Everywhere I look, people are furious.

AI is ruining everything.

Politics isn't working.

The economy's collapsing.

Society's going crazy.

And sure, there's plenty to be angry about. But what I also see are angry people stuck in a loop they can't escape.

They're so busy being outraged that they're not building anything.

They incapacitate themselves in this continual state of displeasure.

That's why I believe the real divide we see developing is between the uncommonly calm and the perpetually angry.

When I complain, and fuss, and disagree, and wish things were different…

I'm actually bringing myself closer to what isn't working.

The anger only keeps me stuck, like a kind of hot glue.

I am not in a creative mode this way, and that's a shame, because creativity is an absolute necessity for anyone looking to salvage what's good in the world.

Anger keeps you tethered.

You're angry because you need the world to be different from what it is.

You're invested in the old system working out.

Not using your creative mind (which is too busy in anger), looking for solutions.

That's the opposite of freedom.

The free souls among us, who are enjoying their lives, are accepting the ridiculousness of modern society.

This is not because they support it. But because they know their energy is best served elsewhere. Namely, in enjoying their lives as society declines around them.

And when they do this, they become the person others look to when chaos lies at every turn.

This gives you an opportunity.

Rather than getting lost, like everyone else in what's wrong, be the person who accepts and finds solutions.

Express those findings with a purpose that magnifies this mission.

This is where creating content and writing come in.

Instead of doom-scrolling and arguing online, you can document your journey.

You can share insights you picked up over your career. You can share what you're learning.

…And in doing so, you become a voice of clarity in the noise.

You're not here to change the world.

You're here to build a tribe around you of people who resonate with your perspective.

To become a leader through the chaos rather than another victim of it.

Your personal brand could be one of the most powerful assets you can build right now.

Most people will stay angry.

But you'll quietly build something that takes advantage of the chaos and moulds it into an energised life that draws in those who want to join you.

That's where I'm going.

You can join me.

So here's what I'm doing about it:

I don't think I've ever done a Black Friday thingy. But I'm running a rare one right now:
