your doom-scrolling is eating away your income
A love letter to everyone who’s been doom-scrolling their life away
You’re feeling the effects of a dulled brain.
You have shut down your higher superhuman capabilities with your endless scrolling on social media. You tell yourself you’re researching, collecting information, learning or whatever lie you tell yourself.
But truly, you’ve been eroding your life and draining your fire.
You’ve been mindlessly exchanging your life watching people who don’t know you doing things you do not care about.
Tell me:
Do you remember anything at all that you watched yesterday on social media?
Do you remember the details of what you watched two days ago?
From the many hundreds of videos that you scrolled past and watched last week, what did you truly learn?
That’s right. Nothing. You learned nothing. Retained nothing. Gained nothing.
After your endless doom scrolling, you came out of that black-mirror-prison a little entertained but much duller than you went in.
And this is why you feel emptied out.
You drained your life force for the day in exchange for numbing your mind. Now you feel like you’re coasting between worlds. You’re neither here nor there. Suddenly you have no idea what you want to do with your life. Again.
You don’t know what you’re passionate about anymore because you’ve exchanged your inner fire for doom scrolling. You’ve been watching billions of bits of other people’s expressed ideas and spent not a single minute inside of your own creative expressions.
This is why you feel like shit.
Imagine not engaging with yourself, your truth, your art, day after day after day.
Instead, you stayed committed to consuming the created works of others. Yes, of course you feel like you do not matter and you have no place in the world.
Do you?
You have put other people before you. You have made others more important and given away your time and energy. No one is checking for you. No one is watching you. No one is learning anything from you.
You must remember this:
Your creativity is your superpower.
Your ability to input your own ideas into the world is what sets you apart from everyone else. Birthing yourself, so to speak, is how you create your life.
And if you deny yourself the gift of the present moment by not spending time inside your creative pursuits, surely your life will reflect that.
You cannot escape the hollow feeling that is guaranteed from ignoring your power. You will be reminded in your moods, in your feelings, and in your emptying bank account, just how much you have strayed from being the creative genius that you truly are.
You feel like shit because you know you should be doing more and better but you aren’t.
You feel left behind because you did in fact leave yourself behind and instead chose to be the consumer of everyone else’s creations.
You can do so much more than you’ve allowed yourself to do in the past couple of weeks.
All that time you spent swiping and swiping, video after video, instantly forgetting what you watched as you watched the next one—all that gracious time could have been spent building your own thing.
But the reason you refuse to reach for your own thing is not that you are lazy. Far from it. You are one of the most hardworking people you know when you really get down to business.
The real reason you never sat down to work on your own thing, invest your time into your own creations, commit yourself to true learning not mindless scrolling on one-minute pieces of shit content?
The reason you never sit to do your thing is you never sit to do your thing.
You do NOT sit.
And you do not sit long enough to start.
Even when you start, you do not sit long enough to get into the Flow state where the pulse of life is waiting for you. My friend, it’s time to sit the fuck down and do your own thing.
Imagine how much time you commit every single day minding other people’s business while ignoring yours.
Don’t you believe you deserve your own commitment?
Are you not worthy of your own time and attention and focus?
Sit, please.
Sit and do the thing you’ve been telling yourself you’d do. Stop breaking your promises to yourself day after day, piling on the regret, missing out on creating your own magical life.
Sit.
The life you’ve been dreaming about is on the other side of you sitting long enough to bring your vision down from spirit into this realm. You are so much more powerful than you’ve let yourself believe and it is time for you to start tapping into that source of power within you. It’s time to prove yourself to yourself.
Sit.
The vision in your heart was planted there because you are worthy of putting it forth. You are capable of bringing it alive. You are the right person for the task. No one has your collective expressions and your unique perspectives, and what a tragedy if it were not all presented by you.
Sit.
Sit down long enough to latch on to the wings of the Creator and co-create something so wonderful that even you will be left in wonder. Sit down long enough to express your inner light and impress yourself.
And when you feel the pangs of distraction calling you to look the other way, to lay in bed and scroll endlessly inside that black mirror of death, resist the pull.
If you can resist long enough, day by day, committing yourself to that which you must express in this world, you’ll find in due time that you’ll begin to win yourself back.
You must become:
Selfish with your time.
Ruthless with your attention.
Committed to your own life.
Bullish about birthing your greatest expression.
The evil in this world is desperate to separate you from your soul’s mission. The programmed distractions are at an all-time high. You must know where the energy leaks are and you must be committed to sever ties with whatever holds you bound and disconnects you from your highest good.
Now, Put your phone down. And SIT.
I wrote this because I know exactly what it feels like to have the gift and withhold it. I also know what it looks like on the business side.. when a woman has something powerful to sell but her sales system is so broken that her content shouts into a void. No funnel. No follow-up. No clear flow from scroll to sale.
That’s the work I do with you. I come into your business and I fix that.
