99% of "how to make it" advice on X is complete bullsh*t.

You're just consuming generic engagement bait content.

I'm around successful entrepreneurs 24/7/365, and they're ALL focusing on these things in 2026 and beyond:

• Being high agency (a.k.a. being proactive and taking control of their life)
• Most of them make being a "hard worker" their core identity
• Relentlessly curious to continuously learn
• Ruthless about eliminating distractions (social media, chasing women, etc.)
• Prioritising health to boost performance (sleep, fitness, health)
• Every day, they attack real, needle-moving work (plan your top 3 priorities each night)
• Their life is anchored around high-impact habits
• Leverage arbitrage (i.e., outsource low-value tasks to affordable EAs or global talent as soon as possible)
• Upskilling in AI (they know this is where the world is going and are looking to position now)
