Hey Reader,

Do you agree with me when I say that most people are horrible at predicting what their lives will look like in the future?

It's mostly because they constantly lie to themselves to postpone activities that matter.

They say things like, "I'll exercise more when work is less busy" or "I'll start writing when I have more time."

But the truth is that life is always busy, and if you really care about something, you have to make time for it. No matter if it's a relationship, hobby, or important responsibility.

We often postpone things that matter, thinking that it'll be easier to take care of them later. But later never arrives because in a week, month, or year from now, you'll be equally busy.

The harsh truth about life is that most of us are busy doing things that don't really matter.

And when we're done taking care of all the busy stuff, we have no time or energy left for the things that truly matter - our health, friends, family, and goals.

This is your mid-year reminder to stop relying on the future, Reader.

Remind yourself of all the good intentions and goals you've set at the beginning of this year: Have you been able to spend a fair amount of time and energy on the things that truly matter to you?

Part of my mission with this newsletter is to help you build a career or business that allows you to do more of what you love.

I want you to love the work you do but also have more time to do anything else you enjoy.

I hate to see so many people being stuck in soul-sucking 9 to 5 jobs because I genuinely believe the world would be a better place if more people could do what they love for a living.

I've recently been building various resources to help you:

• start writing online
• grow your audience
• and make money doing what you love

I want to ensure you receive the resources that'll help you most, so please take a moment and let me know where you're at in your journey right now:

Big love from my screen to yours,
Sinem
