This muscle makes you obscene amounts of money...
Let me show you
Happy Wednesday Mfs
Attention spans are a bitch ain’t they?
One second your working hard on something that is going to change your life and make you a ton of money…
The next your watching an innocent family get run over by a car on insta reels
Like fuck me.
The world we live in is sucking our attention spans out like a day one street whore with no roof to sleep under that night.
And it got me thinking:
“Why do we fail to focus on something for longer than 4 minutes at a time”.
And I think I’ve cracked it, so feel free to use this
Actually, just fucking use it… its gonna help.
Next time your working, doing something productive or abstaining from a dopamine blowjob
When you feel like your slipping, or you have an urge to whip out your phone.
Make a conscious decision to keep working. Like just force yourself to keep going…
Because you dont realise this…
That is a muscle your training.
The muscle which keeps you working on the important stuff while temptation tickles your balls.
And it can be developed.
Now like all muscles… start small.
You didn’t stick 2 plates on the bench when you first walked in the gym
Did you…
No…
And the same applies here.
Try resisting the temptation for 3 minutes…
Then 10…
Then 30…
And before you know it your back in control of your brain, will power and decisions.
You’ll be working on one tab with pornhub still fucking PLAYING on another tab.
Thats how locked in your gonna be.
I’ve been trying this and I haven’t even told you the best part yet…
It gets easier.
Thats right…
Getting to 3 minutes is way harder than getting to 30.
Because like all muscles. They ADAPT.
Try it, now.
Do some work.
When you feel an urge…
KEEP WORKING NO MATTER FUCKING WHAT.
Do that 5-10 times and your productivity is gonna make life feel like hot butter on toast.
Get after it.
