Your Life Is Full of Porn. Stop Getting Yourself Off.

They always have a laptop on their knees and downpayment on a Ferrari ready to be delivered during a socially distanced unveiling at their mortgaged home. The laptop is a symbol for one word: easy.

A laptop makes you think making money is easy.

If money was so gosh damn simple, we’d all be rolling in it and nobody would ever need to wake up early for work again. Money porn sells the dream that cash will solve all your problems.

All you need is a business and you’ll be successful. In Australia, where I live, 9/10 startups fail in the first 5 years. This means startup porn is statistically designed to ruin your life.

A business is hard work. Easing your way into business is a superpower and all the startup porn ignores that. The startup peddlers tell you to walk away from everything and start a business. That’s stupid advice.

Social media makes this version of porn really easy.

You can sabotage other people in the comment’s section of their posts or in the hidden chamber of secrets known as direct messages. Seeking revenge feels good. Seeing people lose, so you can, win seems obvious.

When you eradicate the idea of winners and losers from your life, you welcome the gift of opportunity through the door of your mind.

The more people you help, the better you do for yourself.
If you help people, they will help you in return.

Porn consisting of people having sex is not good for you either. Most of this content shows scenes and acts you can never replicate. The bar you have for physical looks and crazy sexual acts will only increase.

Drop porn for real-life sex with your partner. It’s much better.

The secret to kill all forms of porn is discipline.

Discipline yourself to focus on what you know is good for you. You have a list of habits already that you probably follow — like exercise, reading, leisure time, meditation — and you can focus your time there and get far better returns than the endless porn-fuelled addictions of meaningless nonsense.

Porn is an addictive distraction to doing the work you know you want to do. Getting started with your life’s work each day is hard, but so is continually distracting yourself with life porn.
