Congratulations. You’ve already won the lottery.
No, there isn’t an extra $500+ million in your bank account.
But you’re living through revolution…
You have access to an internet connection.
You have the ability to reach an audience at a scale and speed that would have been impossible for your parents to do at the same age.
You have the power to write a book, make a video that reaches millions of people, start a video blog that launches an empire, promote a cause, raise enough money to launch your ridiculous idea (I backed it), and do just about anything else you want.
This doesn’t mean creating something of quality is easy, but it does mean there’s no longer a valid excuse not to try.
The barrier to doing just about anything is racing toward zero.
You can be passive, pick your *winning* numbers, and live in a world full of hope and “maybe next time.” Or start putting work into one of the thousands of opportunities you have that were impossible a generation ago.
