Jim Rohn once famously said that 'one should make measurable progress within a reasonable time'.
MJ DeMarco speaks about the lonely area of success. That F*cking desert of loneliness in making and developing... those long F*cking lonely nights working away at some 'crazy' idea you have, while your instagram feed is filled with people celebrating and enjoying their lives.. All that F*cking piss.
My question relates to process.
How long do you guys thing is 'long enough', before either calling it quits or moving onto the next idea.
Yeah, I know its a general and vague question, and it would depend on a 'case by case' basis. Maybe time is not the metric to measure things by.. maybe its the amount of things you have executed...
I mean, a year of smashing your F*cking head against the wall... .is that long enough?
or do you guys have the 'get rich or die trying' motto..
Just want to put this question out there. I am keen to hear what people's real thresholds are with this journey.. cause I found it so dark and exhausting.
