This post is not for you.
It's for me.
Because I'm struggling with being patient at the moment, I need to clear my head.
And I do that by writing.
I know life is more like slow-cooking barbeque all day on a grill than using a microwave or an InstantPot.
But, my glory!
Here are just a few things I'm struggling with at the moment:
- losing weight. I want to lose a mere 16 pounds. Of course, it doesn't help that I keep eating !
- growing my TikTok following (it would mean the world to me if...
Before I share with you why I am confused, let me give you the backstory.
Prior to April 2021, I was active on every imaginable social media platform: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Snapchat, and TikTok. And that's not even listing the ones I used to be on but are no more (I'm talking to you, Myspace!).
Then I watched the Netflix documentary so many people have told me I needed to, The Social Dilemma, which scared the out of me, and I promptly deleted...

Am I the only one suffering from too much information?
Books.
Friends/colleagues.
Videos.
Social media.
There's SO MUCH information out there, but while information is valuable, too much information can be a negative thing.
I believe that to best serve you as a productivity expert, I need to be a student first.
And that means always learning.
In fact, I spend a minimum of one hour every day (seven days a week) learning how to be better.

Maybe you finally want to:
- start a side hustle
- write a book

Today, in the United States, we celebrate Independence Day. This is when we commemorate the Declaration of Independence of the United States (from England), on July 4, 1776 (Wikipedia).
But I want to write about another form of independence.
Today, I want you to declare your freedom from:
- overwhelm
- negativity (including news and social media that makes you angry)
- toxic people and things (such as video games)
- food/drink that's not good for you (what the body doesn't need)
- ...
So today, I want to ask if you are sick and tired of being sick and tired.
Are you feeling like you're a hamster on a wheel, you're reading this book, you are taking this course, you are hanging around these people and you're not going anywhere?
Well, I've got some help for you.
Okay, no matter where you are, I got some help for you.
Now, before I give you the magic solution, which is going to blow your mind, you're like, oh my gosh, Mark, you're a genius. I know. But I'm humble too.
So let...
