Episode notes
When To Jump To Your Side Hustle
- Do go all-in on a side hustle when you can "eat shit" for a year and cover basic needs.
- Recognize your hours compound: full-time passion work often yields much more than scaled part-time income.
Limit Or Leave Toxic Situations
- Leave toxic workplaces instead of endlessly complaining or trying to fight nepotism.
- Limit relationships with loved ones or leave non-loved-one situations; take action or shut your mouth.
Balance Algorithm With Authenticity
- Do make content that balances what the algorithm rewards and what feels authentic to you.
- Prioritize personal, meaningful content over chasing extra views for short-term algorithm gains.
