The world doesn't know it yet

Reflecting on what I've done the last few years and how the world will hear about me

The world doesn’t know it yet:

The world doesn’t know it yet.

I’m coming.

I’m here.

The work I’ve done will be talked about for decades.

I believe it.

Does it sound egotistical?

Absolutely.

But it’s belief.

It’s a dream.

It’s a goal I may never reach.


The reason why I feel so confident?

Because I’ve put in the work.

I’ve done the reading.

And writing.

And thinking.

And working.

I’m almost at 1000 blog posts.

Not 10.

Or 100.

1000.

Since 2021.

In addition to reading almost 300 non-fiction books while writing notes on them.

200+ pages of notes.

All available for people to see.

I have nothing to hide.

People won’t discover most of this stuff for years.

Even me.

I sometimes forget what I’ve done.

Then go back and say ‘holy shit.’

Some of this stuff is wild.

That’s my goal.

I’m just at the beginning.

Just started.

The beginning of the empire.

The next decade is going to be brutal from a world perspective.

But I cannot wait to be out there in the next decade.

The world will know my words.

I will make them.

Watch me turn all my writing and reading into podcast episodes and videos.

Then translate them.

Then just sit back and wait.

People won’t believe it.

They won’t believe the work.

They won’t believe the output.

They won’t understand it.

Good.

I’ll be an overnight success.

Only I’ve been doing this for years.

And I’ve only just begun.

I listen to a lot of Founder’s podcast.

Those are people whose lives were crazy enough that people had to hear about them.

I want that to be about me when I’m gone.

This guy who did something.

Who showed up.

Who put in the work.


Who tried in the face of failure and the harshest criticism.

Who was honest.

Who tried to teach.

Who was a good person.

That’s what I want to be known for.

All this writing and reading will get me there.

I know it.


I feel it.

It’ll take time.

Longer than I think.

May not even happen in my lifetime.

But I will get there.

I’ve gotten signals along the way.

Still remember a random guy telling me on a golf course in San Diego in 2021 that he was gonna see me in Forbes.

I’ve never forgotten that.

Think some people around me know.

Somehow I’m destined for far more than a normal life.

That’s huge pressure and responsibility.

But I’m for up the task.

I only get one life.

If I can build the world I want to see, I’m never going to stop until that happens.

Just watch and wait.

The world doesn’t know what’s coming.
