- ”Feeling stuck in a loop of mediocrity? It's time for a change.” That's the essence of this video. Join me, as I confront the feeling of stagnation that's shadowed my life. Despite the countless countries visited, projects created, and experiences lived, I've come to realize that none of it felt truly "important “. I share the realization that, perhaps like you, I've been merely existing rather than living to the fullest. It's a journey through personal reflections, the struggle with the allure of comparison, and an urgent call to break free from the confines of complacency.
Determined to leave behind the comfort zone, I'm setting my sights on making 2024 the year of transformation. This video lays out my plan for the year - a blueprint for challenging myself, reigniting my passion for life, and documenting the journey. From confronting the harsh reality of my comfort zone to a heartfelt declaration to pursue a meaningful, purpose-driven life. If you're ready to challenge the status quo and pursue a life filled with purpose, passion, and growth, this video is for you. Let's make 2024 our best year yet.

Man, I felt like I wrote this script! The whole frustration, not having "earned" enough to have fun, so I must work more, etc. etc. So much effort put in has resulted in very little, makes it tough to continue for sure. I'm guessing many more feel exactly the same too. My personal advice, to myself and anyone, is always prioritize staying healthy, as you can always work to make more money. But if sick, you can't do anything! And double your rate of making mistakes and taking risks, to double your progress and achievement (hopefully). Here's to 2024 brotha! 😎
Thank you, Raman, for sharing your take and experience. It's extremely helpful to see that I am not alone in this. Interesting take about doubling your rate of mistakes and taking risk. Especially in the world of content; that feels like one also has to be comfortable with public “failure” or “embarrassment”. Good luck to you with your 2024 🌸.
I watched this and your last video. I think it is great how you analyse and describe your situation. By the way: Whether we are able to acknowledge this or not: I think a big part in live is also whether we have some luck sometimes or not so much.
All the best for you and 2024 and the years to come!
Thanks for that! I appreciate your recognition. You also nailed it with the luck part. The annoying thing about that: there is a certain amount of control I believe I have in my life, which means I am "to blame" for the negative but then as well for the positive. So, it as a lot to-do with personal responsibility. All the best for you as well 🌸.
Aw man... This retrospective frustration, after having done everything you could to the best of your knowledge, is one of the worst feelings. I feel you.
I'm confused about your central statements though. I understand that you feel like your past decade has been mediocre in some ways, but I'm not sure if you want to change your general approach to life, or tenaciously carry on but with a different mindset. And I don't understand what constitutes a supreme life, as opposed to a mediocre one, on a day-to-day basis.
Either way, your story about envy was pretty hardcore - thank you for daring to share it!
Thank you for sharing this feedback and how you saw my video. I appreciate that.
Regarding my envy statement; that's a hard one to recognize, and it feels ridiculous to even "say out loud"… but it holds truth and was important to include.
My central point is that I want to move forward with much more power and strength, actually taking more responsibility & doing what I say I will do. Basically: growing up, doing this as a business, and building my resilience and strength.
Cheers, and may you also have a great 20224 🌸.
