The world does not reward the smart; it rewards the known. Times have changed, things are different now. You may have been the most intelligent of your friend group, and that could be synonymous with your broke-ness. Crazy right? I’ll explain in a bit…
I’ve met so many intelligent thinkers who are waiting for the right time to launch their brilliant ideas. This is what I like to call the “perfectionist paralysis”, mostly common with people who are great analysts, and that doesn’t rhyme with how the world runs now. We don’t need perfect; we need more.
If you have been overthinking that brand idea or personal action for your next level, rewire that mindset. Do, then perfect along the way. It’s your ticket to your next level. You need to understand your perfect idea means jack if no one knows it or cares for it. Create the care, create the demand for more.
Don’t let your intelligence become the prison you cannot break free from. In a world where everything you have matters more, you have to choose how you want to play your cards.
What is intelligence if poverty is your daily footstool?
