The Return
So, the #Wantrepreneur returns. Literally. I’m back after neglecting my Medium page, I’m back…to work…after not going there for a little over two weeks (returned on Friday) to push the hustle I referred to in the previous articles. Im back with a brand new website (hosted, nonetheless), a new channel on YouTube. Thankfully, I never lost the login details for Medium when I changed my smartphone (that’s what happened to almost every other site…ALMOST EVERY).
Evolution
Oh, yeah. Im something else, now: a trader…hm, tricky trade, that one. Just started almost 50 hours prior to this (Monday morning at approximately 07:00). The INSAANE risking taking place there, I scare myself after living my entire life safely and securely.

The realisation
*Clicks tongue lightly and sighs*
I thought I was back when l was writing this draft on the first entered date up-top, still haven’t done anything SINCE!
Look, I am in the midst of doing my driver’s licence, and I’ve been in that very midst since March/April 2013. Yeah, the procrastination that lasted 4 years. And I handed in a resignation letter at work on the 21st July (Friday), SIX days after my 24th birthday on the FIFTEENTH of July (The Saturday before said Friday).
Why’d I stop working for a multinational that rakes in a little over US$10 BILLION per annum? Freedom from TRADITION…that’s why.
Am I ever gonna get started on research and marketing for my hustle? Or should I wait for a call from Gary Vaynerchuk to set my arse on fire?
Forget that, I’m handing the power over my life to someone else if I do that. So I’m doing it myself.
- I resigned from a job, I started a channel on YouTube,
- I started this “publication” from which you’re reading this,
- I hold the idea for the business in my head,
- I know why it is necessary,
- I know how to make it grow,
- I know the economic value of its existence,
- I am the only one who wants to actually see it turn into a reality.
- I’m the one who has the responsibility of bringing myself into combustion…and I always thought it would be spontaneous.
To hell with spontaneity. I have to be active in all this. Obsessed, addicted to this grind. Wait, wait, wait. Wrong choice of words.
- I AM obsessed with my idea
- I AM addicted to building my business
- I AM committed to changing my habits
- I AM a world-class innovator
- I AM changing the norm and fighting traditions.
- I ALWAYS WAKE UP AND CRUSH IT!

(We always have to watch what we say, because we also say it to ourselves.)
