I'm afraid of sounding like someone who's afraid to say what he really believes because he's afraid of being canceled.

The worst form of cancellation is self-cancellation.

I don't fear cancel culture.

I fear becoming a boring and useless version of myself who never says what he really believes based on a fear of cancel culture.

I will never cancel myself because of a fear that someone else may try to do it.

You can't make creative magic happen if you're waiting on the permission of pleasant or perfect circumstances.

Creativity isn't about having it easy. It's about the willingness to show up come hell or high water

Wow! Stephen A. Hart brought the Fire on today's livestream.

Most people never become millionaires.

This brother did it, lost it, & came back from a million dollars in debt.

So many great stories.

If we’re having more problems than ever before, then there's no better time for us to be creative.

A mission is what you have when you continue to build the communities and creative projects you're called to work on long after the news cycle has moved on to something more sensational.

I think it's much more profitable to pay attention to follower count on Twetch, but you know the drill: do what's valuable and the metrics will follow.

In my latest article for the Foundation for Economic Education, I make the case for why creativity matters more than ever.

When the state of your soul is aligned with the service you sell, your life itself becomes the pitch.

When you're driven by what makes you come alive, you don't beg people to buy.

Value-exchange becomes a process as natural and life-giving as breathing.

If you have a heart attack every time you gain or lose a follower, your heart is in the wrong place.

Devils will always be among us.

And we must not downplay their ability to work through any of us.

Wherever there are people, there are devils who wish to exploit & enslave.

To defeat them, we must do what devils can't.

Devils coerce.

God creates.

We overestimate the value of being seen.

We underestimate the value of showing up.

A writer is someone who can endure the struggle of writing while not yet feeling like a writer.

Your possibilities aren't determined by who gave birth to you, but by who created you.

You are more than the people you've come from.

The struggle is real, but don't lose hope.

Your potential > Your parents

On today's episode of TK's Two Cents, I discuss the fear of sounding like a liberal/conservative and the fear of creating what you want to create because of critics who think what you want to create is stupid.

Jealousy is when you interpret someone else's bull run as if it's evidence of your own stock crashing.

Don't get distracted by other people's success portfolio.

Keep investing in yourself even when it feels like you're in a spiritual bear market.

I think. Therefore I worship.

"Pain insists upon being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our consciences, but shouts in our pains. It is his megaphone to rouse a deaf world." -C.S. Lewis

Forever on the blockchain!

I'm with you. I was just making fun of the people who ask that question without even pressuring themselves to know how to spell.

"Like, bruh. How you gonna get the money when yo mind ain't even right?"

If the brand you're building is making you anxious and hesitant about the things you want to post on social media, you're not building a brand.

You're building a box.

Break out.

Wen Moon?

Too busy competing with me.

I appreciate that sentiment though.

Cheers!

The market will never be oversaturated with creativity.

"We don't need more people who XYZ."

Got something YOU want to do?

If so, then we need one more: You!

Get out here & create what YOU want to create.

You don't need the permission of folks who are frustrated by their own issues w/ information overload.

Indeed.
