life has been exhausting lately.

90 hour work weeks, regular all-nighters producing a lot of videos.

bringing a lot of people on the journey in the process - but sometimes it feels like the market doesn't have the demand for what I have to say or preach to make it sustainable

eventually it brings you to a crossroads - have confidence and stay the path in the face of disappointment, or pivot and adapt to something new?

what are some good pieces of media/advice that has helped you keep going and get past similar hard times creatively?

It seems to be a rough time for all creators in this space. I don’t have any advice other than to listen to the market. You could just be too early. Much depends on your financial situation and what you need to do to make ends meet.

At times, I feel like I'm wasting my time writing about and testing all of this stuff. Whenever I begin to feel this way, I read this quote from A Cypherpunk Manifesto. ”Cypherpunks write code. We know that someone has to write software to defend privacy, and since we can't get privacy unless w...

Media ideas to keep going? The 'What Bitcoin Did' interview with Aaron Van Wirdum about the Genesis of Bitcoin. If you've heard it before, skip to 1:19:20 and put it on 1.75x "Both Bit Gold and b-money where '98, Hashcash was '97, ecash was also 90's, RPOW was 2005"..."Interesting backstory is a...

The Futur has been very formative for me as a visual artist. I don't know if this is exactly what you are looking for but Chris Do's content is excellent and the principles apply across disciplines. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-b3c7kxa5vU-bnmaROgvog He has a few videos on burnout and pushin...

Your content is top notch but you're also still early. Continue to be consistent and persistant in what you do and it will pay off. Just don't burn yourself out in the process. Sometimes it's beneficial to slow down, do a few hours less and then get back to it fresh and recharged

Also, repurpose old content. Plenty haven’t seen it before.

Lol getting zapped is encouragement enough, the best kinds are the unexpected ones. Just don't worry about it, I imagine the floodgates will open up once tiktok is banned and X demands ID. Slowly, but surely people are waking up to the dsytopia especially after the flu. They will come, first slowly ...
