Key to Staying Poor? Start Tomorrow...

Procrastination is the fastest way to stay stuck. It’s easy to convince yourself that tomorrow is a better day to start, that you’ll have more energy, more motivation, or just be in a better headspace. But the truth? Tomorrow rarely comes the way you imagine it. Successful people don’t wait for the perfect moment—they act despite how they feel.

This is something I learned from my mentor, Alex Hormozi, and it’s a principle I live by and teach in my mentorship. The people who succeed in music, business, or any pursuit don’t have some magical gift—they just do the work even when they don’t feel like it.

Yesterday, I wasn’t feeling it. I was drained, unmotivated, and stuck in my own head. I told myself I’d handle things later. But deep down, I knew that the real reason I felt that way was because I was avoiding the important tasks that needed to get done. Avoidance leads to anxiety. The longer you put something off, the heavier it feels.

So, this morning, I forced myself to tackle everything head-on. The result? I felt a million times better. That feeling of accomplishment, of momentum, of overcoming resistance—it’s powerful. It turns hesitation into confidence. It’s what separates the ones who stay stuck from those who level up.

This applies to every area of life, but especially music. You want to be a better drummer? A better producer? A better entrepreneur? The key isn’t some secret technique or shortcut—it’s simply showing up and putting in the work, every single day.

The difference between those who make it and those who don’t isn’t talent—it’s the ability to push through when they don’t feel like it. Your feelings don’t dictate your success; your actions do.

So if you’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to start, here’s the truth: The perfect moment is now. Get to work. Beast mode on. 🔥💪
