Why You Should Create More Content

Elon Musk has the vision to colonize Mars.

Some people find it stupid.

You find it inspiring.

Someone having a vision in itself is super inspiring to you.

You don't have a strong vision.

So when you see people like MrBeast, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Elon Musk living aligned with their vision, it inspires the hell out of you.

Obviously, keep getting inspired by people.

But that's not what you are writing about today.

Today, you want to develop your vision just a little bit more.

And that's why the headline of this post is 'Why You Should Create More Content'.

Everything screams at you to create more content.

The best way to learn is to teach.

And the best way to teach while impacting a lot of people is to do 'one-to-many' and not 'one-to-one' teaching.

There is this latin expression: verba volant, scripta manent.

If you create a piece of content, it can be available for everybody until the end of times.

What a great time we live in.

You love to learn. So teach and create content.

Yesterday, you realized that you are interested in subjects that not many people are interested in: spirituality, mindset, psychology, marketing, the art of learning, thinking about concepts, simplifying concepts, understanding the universe, pragmatism, efficiency, etc etc

I mean, a lot of people are interested in these subjects but in a completely different way than you.

You like to be lazy and have things make sense simply.

This seems crazy to you but most people just don't make sense out of things.

Most people have weird perspectives simply because they don't think about what's best for the world but they think about drama, taking sides, and being a victim.

You wish for people to make sense of the world easier, stop suffering for very stupid reasons, and be happier.

It's crazy how understanding just one little thing can completely change your life for the better.

That's what happened to you when you understood from Eckhart Tolle that there is more to life than just pleasure from food and sex and you stopped thinking like a nihilist.

You can do so much with so little.

Asymmetric results.

You can make the world a better place without any effort.

Doing what you want takes no effort.

What takes effort is NOT doing what you want.

(I define effort by self-resistance here)

So be lazy, make no effort, and make the world a better place.

Sometimes the solution is not taking action, doing, being, having, or anything like that.

Sometimes the solution is simply accepting what you want.

And there is always something you want.

Otherwise you would be like a monk, fully present, in the state of samadhi.

So dig deeper into what you want.

Grow your vision.

And help people by creating content.
