The Distractions Of The Side Hustle

The Distractions Of The Side Hustle

I learned early in sports that to be effective – for a player to play the best he can play – is a matter of concentration and being unaware of distractions, positive or negative.    -Tom Landry

Distractions destroy…

  • Creativity
  • Productivity
  • Efficiency
  • Accomplishment
  • Love
  • Contentment
  • Relationships
  • SUCCESS
  • HIGHER ACHIEVEMENT

Distractions embraced equals selfishness. Colossal selfishness. Because it’s pride that drives us to distraction.

Past beliefs about yourself won’t carry you into the future.

Side hustles became a phrase and thing over 70 years ago, but I suppose there’s always been moonlighting. That is, going to work, getting off work, then going to another job, even if it’s part-time. Today, in 2024 the side hustle isn’t what it was – a way to supplement income so you could feed your family. Now, it’s an income-producing hobby, often called a passion project, indicating it’s something the person claims to love. Presumably more than they love the thing that earns them the biggest chunk of their income.

“You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.” – James Clear

Others have replaced “systems” with “training.”

Probably more true – you don’t rise to the level of your goals, but you fall to the level of your habits.
