How to stop overthinking and choose "the right path".

Hint: There is no right path.

With so many options for making money nowadays and so many "paths" you can take... it's easy to get overwhelmed and not take any action at all.

So how do you choose what to do?

Well...

What's choosing you?

Have you ever felt something choosing you from the inside?

Something that's nudging you in a certain direction? A direction that you're scared to go in?

And when you ignore it... it gets louder and louder?

And not only that, but you start to feel like shit?

You literally feel depressed... like you can't make a change... like you're stagnant.

You're not living up to your standards at all...

I've come to realize the main cause of happiness comes from living up to your potential and continuously pushing past your comfort zone.

And when you're not doing this, you start to feel numb. Almost dead inside.

Day by day, a piece of your soul dies.

Anxiety starts to hit.

I know because this is exactly how I felt when I was at my 9-5 engineering job. I knew I was meant for more...

I saw my "room for growth", and it was nowhere I wanted to be. I saw how people had been there for over 25 years, climbing up the corporate ladder... Only to have gotten a 30% raise and a few extra vacay days.

"Have your fun!" They say. "But come back! Someone needs to produce the product and it's not gonna be us!"

I knew that something else was calling my name…

Something over yonder.

And the more I ignored it, the worse that feeling got. I started to feel like shit... Depressed. Like my life wasn't going anywhere.

I felt like there was SOMETHING I had to do.

And one day, it came to me. What did?

Curiosity.

I saw something about writing online... something about copywriting...

And I became CURIOUS.

Thats all you need.

That's all you need to start taking action.

What things spark curiosity in you?

What things ignite your soul?

For me, it was the idea of traveling to different countries and making money online.

Copywriting was my ticket to be able to do this. And it intrigued me that I could use my words to persuade people to take action.

Anything I want to do in the future – create a brand, start a business, etc. needs copywriting.

It’s a skill you can transfer to any area of your life. And this intrigued me.

That's all it took. That's all it took for me to decide to pursue copywriting online.

Do I feel like this is my purpose? Do I feel like this is what I'm meant to do? Do I feel like this is "my calling?" Hell no.

But most people get so stuck on finding the “perfect" thing that they never get started.

One thing leads you to the next, and before you know it you're exactly where you're supposed to be. And it starts with taking a step into curiosity.

Letting yourself be guided by your curiosity.

Don't let the idea of "perfect" or "finding your passion" stop you from doing the things that excite you NOW.

So as I write this to you from the plane on my way to Guadalajara to meet up with a beautiful girl I met in Medellín... I say to you: Live your life.

You're only young once.

What are the things that make you curious? What are the things that excite you? And how can you make those things a reality today?

Don't think about it too much. Just start walking in that direction and watch where life takes you.
