One day it’ll all be worth it:

One day it’ll all be worth it.

All the work.

All the time.

All the practice.

All the sacrifice.

All the effort.

All the writing.

It will all be worth it.

It will be noticed.

It’ll be seen by more people than I can imagine.

May not happen in this life.

But it will happen.

It can’t not.

1100 posts since 2021 is no joke.

You keep up that pace for your life and you’ll have tens of thousands of pieces.

People want to read someone who’s produced thousands of pieces.

Some people do.

And maybe one day, someone will want to read what I’ve written.

I know they do.

I know they will.

I just have to keep working.

Keep showing up.

Keep writing.

Keep creating.

I do that and it’s done.

It will get noticed.

No doubt about it.

Already has.

My words have power.

Too much apparently.

People actually care what I have to say.

Even if it’s upsetting.

Even if they don’t like it.

They care.

It matters.

Can’t have people with different opinions around.

Can’t have a discussion about it.

Can’t discuss the contents of what was written.

But have to take words out of context.

Then boom, things change.

Clearly my words matter.

Clearly people are paying attention.

But there’s way more than that.

There are all these ideas and predictions.

Most of them are wrong.

But some have come true.

I have a feeling more will as the future unfolds.

That’s what I do.

This writing is to capture my thoughts about the future as we go through it.

I’m trying to make sense of all of this just as much as you.

If I do that forever, there’s no way this doesn’t work.

That this is not successful.

That people won’t see your work.

We’re going into a huge AI slop age.

Where content is being produced infinitely by AI.

But I know people still want people.

We want real stories.

Real ideas.

Real thoughts.

Honest opinions.

Direct.

No bullshit.

Tell it like it is.

That’s what my writing is trying to do.

Not beat around the bush.

Get to the point.

I’ve gotten better at it.

But still work to do.

That’s the best part about all of this.

All this is practice.

Continuous practice.

Slow improvements over time.

I keep practicing and I know.

I just feel it.

God has told me.

One day, this will all be worth it.
