NEWSLETTER SPECIAL
SIX HARSTH TRUTHS FOR 2024

This year has undoubtedly been a year of words for me.

From writing my new book to crafting this newsletter week after week, writing has been at the heart of my 2023.

I've decided to do something special to wrap up this remarkable year.

Introducing my mini newsletter series “Six Harsh Truths for 2024”.

Over the next few weeks, you'll receive more frequent newsletters from me, each delving into one of these truths.

These aren't just words on a page; they're thought-provoking insights that I hope will resonate with you as we enter the new year.

I encourage you not just to read them but to really ponder over each one.

Reflect on how these truths resonate with your own experiences and perspectives.

And I'd love to hear from you!

Share your thoughts and tell me which truths resonate with you on Instagram.

So, let's dive right in. Here's the first harsh truth of 2024…

HARSH TRUTH #1
THE WORLD ONLY CARES ABOUT WHAT YOU CAN GIVE TO IT.

The world is basically that mate who only rings you when they need a lift to the airport.

It’s harsh but entirely true.

And the brutal reality is that our beloved planet Earth, with all its mountains, oceans and coffee shops, really doesn’t give a fuck about your feelings or the crappy hand you’ve been dealt in life.

Success isn’t about your sob story but what you bring to the table.

Look at life as a giant feast with everyone invited…

You’re as good as invisible if you show up with a plate of soggy sandwiches.

But stride in with the finest cuts of beef and crispy roast potatoes, the kind that makes everyone drool, and you’re suddenly the life and soul of the party!

We’re rewarded based on the value we contribute. And by “Value”, I don’t mean your ability to quote every line from the Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic Commando.

(Let off some steam, Bennet!)

I mean the skills, talents and abilities to make someone else’s life a tad easier, better or less boring.

If you’re sat there, wondering why you haven’t hit the jackpot yet, it might be time to ask yourself:

“What am I bringing to others in this life?”

And if you haven’t focused on getting good at something others are struggling with, it’s time to up your game next year.

The world’s a bustling, unforgiving arena, and If you want to stand out, you’ve got to be more than just background noise.

So, what’s it going to be?

Are you going to up your game, or just keep whinging about being left out?

The world’s not going to wait for you to catch up.

Make your mark, or stay forgotten. The choice is yours.
