Advice | Friday Rant with Austin Linney | Construct your life #755
Episode Summary:
In this Friday Rant, I dive into something a lot of us are struggling with right now—too much advice. We’re surrounded by podcasts, books, videos, and social media telling us how to live, but at some point, it all starts to blur. I’m not against learning—but if you don’t know your values, you’ll end up living by someone else’s.
This episode is all about getting intentional with the information you take in, creating a belief system that acts as your filter, and giving yourself permission to walk away from advice that doesn’t align.
Key Highlights:
- Advice Overload Is Real: I talk about how consuming too much content can create confusion instead of clarity.
- Know Your North Star: When you define your core values, you can filter advice through that lens—keeping what fits, and discarding the rest.
- You Don’t Have to Finish Everything: Books, podcasts, videos—if they’re not serving you, stop consuming.
- Be Strategic With Learning: I share how I plan who I want to connect with at events—and once I do, I leave. No wasted energy.
- Intentional Inputs Only: Pick a day, pick a topic, and focus. Stop absorbing nonstop content with no direction.
Final Tips:
You don’t need more noise—you need more clarity. Set your values. Choose your inputs intentionally. And remember, not all advice is worth keeping.If this hit home, pass it along to someone else who needs a reset. Talk soon.
