why you should never aspire to anything
shitty clickbait title aside, do this instead, but no matter what you do, please don’t call it, or anything else, you ever do, a “lifehack”

PSA: Stop saying you’re an “aspiring” anything.
Actor. Blogger. Creative. Director. Entrepreneur.
Formula: decide, commit, act, succeed, repeat.
Internalize you already are what you want to be.
And that starts right now. Fake it til you make it.
CALLS TO ACTION
1. Recommend this story. It helps others see the story, lets me know my work is worth writing, reading and recommending and makes me feel validated and fuzzy, because honestly, whose cold, dead heart isn’t instantly thawed and revived by the dizzying dopamine of notifications? Like, share, retweet, lather, rinse, repeat. Also, the doctors say if I don’t feel fuzzy, I’ll die, due to a rare deficiency in social currency triggered whenever my Klout score drops below 70. It’s 67 right now. Not a good look. Do you want me to die?! Didn’t think so.
2. Share this story: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, email, etc.
3. Connect with me: Medium, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, Snapchat, Product Hunt, AngelList, Quora and Quibb. (I think that’s all of them!) Write me via email too! Call or text if you want. (917) 982–3849. I’m always happy to make new friends, listen, support, and be helpful in any way I can. That’s why I’m Medium’s resident cheerleader, duh! :)
4. Read my writing. Join my mailing list. Champion future work by considering compensation for my intellectual labor.
