📚 Hey, good morning! Time to win.

If you ever get a chance to read The Picture of Dorian Gray, by Oscar Wilde, I highly, HIGHLY recommend it.

It's hilarious, superbly well written, and easily one of my favorite books of all time.

I don't think this quote is from the book (although it may be), but Wilde said one of my favorite lines about perseverance and hope that I've ever read:

I LOVE that line, and I've repeated it to myself over and over again at various periods throughout my life. It's a fantastic reminder that no matter where we are in life, it’s probably not the end.

We can change the ending. We can make something different happen.

We can still win. We can persevere. It’s not yet the end.

As always, at the bottom of this email I’ll lay out everything I did today to move closer to my Ultimate Vision. This is to keep me accountable and to show you that I’m working as hard as I’m encouraging you to work…

Skipped the gym today…AGAIN. But I did an impromptu leg workout at home, so it wasn’t a total loss. Nothing fancy. Just some air squats, etc. Nice little burn, some walking, nothing crazy. I used the time I “saved” to get important work done, so again, not a total loss. Will definitely be at the gym tomorrow night. I miss it terribly already!

Today was up and down, but I’m ending up, so that’s good. I woke up way too late again today and I feel as though whenever I do that my productivity is all thrown off for the entire day.

So I’m not going to do that tomorrow.

I’m going to wake up around 10AM, read for a few hours, and then hit my workflow fucking HARD. Tomorrow should be a day of epic productivity.

Until next time…happy reading!

All the best,

Matt Karamazov
