Never stop flirting

- He gets some followers

Then loses his charisma, puts in less effort, switches to a weird know it all tone

- He gets into a relationship

Then charm goes away, puts in low effort

His positive gains are temporary, because his positive actions are temporary
I've heard people say "the universe will test you"

it'll test to see if you really about that life

ultimately seeing DO YOU BELONG:

does a result make you change your behavior? is this unfamiliar to you?

if yes, you don't belong

you will be kicked out & will lose the result
if you freak out making $100,000, then go flexing on IG like 'you made it'

Clearly $100,000 is a big deal to you
You don't belong

You'll get kicked out

You'll lose it & go right back to where you belong

We ALWAYS find a way back to what we THINK we deserve
^ this is why 70% of lottery winners go broke within 3 years

WE ALWAYS return to the familiar

People pursue THINGS that reflect an IDENTITY

The relationship, the money, the followers, etc

Things are a reflection of the IDENTITY

Change the identity & the things will change
"easy come easy go"

This phrase (in my opinion) is because of identity

If you make $900/month for 5 years
Then make $70,000 in 1 month

Your habits, beliefs, routines, mind, and identity are still at $900/month

You'll go right back down to that
(my own personal experience)
compare that to

$900/month gradually progressing

Month 1 of new venture: $1700/month
Month 2: $2400/month
Month 3: $2900
Month 4: $3300
Month 5: $3700
Month 6: $4100
Month 7: $3900
Month 8: $5000
Month 9: $5400
Month 10: $6000
Month 11: $6500
Month 12: $8100
Because progress is subtle, there is no contrast or major difference feeling unfamiliar

Gradually raising the baseline

Like increasing your bench
You can't handle 350 with a max of 250

Gradual progression is how to become familiar with 350

250, 260, 275, 285, 295...
Just like a max bench of 350 can't handle & doesn't belong benching 250

A max income of $1000/month

Can't handle & doesn't belong making $10,000/month

If by fluke & force it's achieved in a fast way

It'll likely vanish & return back to the familiar of around $1000/month
some exceptions we sell ourselves short

exposure reveals you're totally capable & belong there

ex - was sluggish in gym for a few weeks

I hadn't ATTEMPTED more than 275 in weeks

He said try 315
I was expecting 0-1 reps
