The secrets to becoming good at anything

If you want to become a good writer, don’t try to become a writer.

If you want to become a good public speaker, don’t try to become a public speaker.

If you want to become an expert, don’t try to become an expert.

If you want to become an entrepreneur, don’t try to become an entrepreneur.

Here’s the thing..

Whenever you try to become someone or something you’ll usually end up trying too hard.

You’ll try to follow a blueprint. A guidebook. A plan.

But the truth is that there is no guidebook. There is no plan to follow. There is no blueprint for this kind of stuff. There is no advice to follow. For most stuff out there as a matter of fact.

And the only way to becoming good at anything is to not follow the rules.

To not follow people’s advice.

To not do what everybody else is doing.

The only way to becoming good at anything is to follow your own rules.

To create your own rules.

And to do something no one else is doing..
