Late Sundays,

Tunnel vision and long journeys are the theme of the week. Success takes time, great work takes time. Don’t rush the process, think and give yourself time to execute.

Over a long enough period the changes will materialize and the work of art will bloom.

🔭🛣️.

🧐 Thought(s) of the Week

When you catch a whiff of the high life 🥂, we become intoxicated with the idea of what could be. We want to do everything, look for every shortcut to achieve the life we want.

A Life of Abundance. A Life of Options.

All of which is possible, but requires a huge time investment. No one was successful overnight. Random luck, is improbable.

Put on the blinders, and run down the road, and when you feel like you can’t go anymore, muster more energy, because you’re almost there.

Paraphrased Quote from a conversation I had with a Friend.

❤️ Weekly Highlights

1 - Attack on Titan. Fin

It has been 10 years of keeping up with Attack on Titan, and I was finally able to watch the last episode on Monday. Many years of action, tears, heartache, death, and more.

These 10 years have been a 10/10 experience, while agonizing to wait for follow-up seasons, it was well worth it to the end.

It hit every point of the story metrics for it to be close to perfection for me.

✅ Story

✅ Character development

✅ World-building

✅ Foreshadowing

✅ Action

✅ Conclusion.

I’m quite hard to please, and it has delivered quite immensely. If you haven’t already you should watch it and feel all these emotions I felt all these years.

A Final Quote from one of the main characters, that resonates with me.

Those who can’t abandon anything cannot change anything.

2 - Writing Success?

I’ve spent a lot of time writing over the past 8 weeks, posting a weekly tweetstorm that has gained a bit of traction. I feel like I’ve gotten the hang of putting myself out there and can create a gauge for what may do well, based on my knowledge and also the knowledge of an online mentor I follow on Twitter — Nicolas Cole.

I was able to gain 2.1k Impressions, 22 likes, 7 Retweets, and 5 bookmarks. Which is relatively good in comparison to my earlier tweets. Check out the tweet in question 👉🏼 Click Here
