There’s no success without alignment.
- $1,000,000+ doing work you hate isn’t success.
- 30 pounds lost following a diet and exercise regimen that makes you miserable isn’t a success.
- Reading 100 books in a year that were all irrelevant to your life/interests/goals isn’t a success.
- Getting first place in a competition that doesn’t challenge or excite you in any way isn’t a success.
- Going viral by intentionally spreading misinformation or hate or content that you would despise consuming yourself isn’t a success.
…Which is why it’s crucially important to find alignment before you ever chase any kind of success.
