Be the architect, not the builder. This is something I heard a while back and stuck with me. There’s nothing wrong with being a builder, but sometimes one’s mind is more geared towards finding solutions rather than building them.

00:00There's always a solution to a problem. Always. Doesn't matter what it is.
00:04We wanted to cross water, we built bridges or boats.
00:08We wanted to get there quicker, more quicker than horses, we built cars.
00:13Wanted to get there even quicker, we built planes.
00:16Humanity has always created great solutions for problems.
00:22And with tech, there's no different.
00:24There's always, not always, because there are some apps that are absolute utter rubbish, crap, whatever you want to call it.
00:31But there are some apps that are fantastic and just work.
00:35But there's always friction between you and the thing that you want to do, related to tech.
00:42And there are solutions to create those things.
00:44But even those solutions, some of those solutions are actually not that good.
00:48But there are many great ones out there.
00:51And sometimes you find a unicorn to me, to you.
00:55You find a unicorn that goes, well, why didn't I think about this before?
01:00Now, I have an issue.
01:03My issue is I want to share more things this coming year.
01:07I want to be able to post quicker, better, without having to worry about the technology.
01:14Right now, my website and my blog post, these videos and stuff are on my website.
01:19They're personally branded, which is fantastic.
01:22But it's a bit of a pain to post things, in a way.
01:29So that is a problem that I've found.
01:33So I went out yesterday.
01:35Well, it was longer than that.
01:38But yesterday, I kind of honed in and said, okay, I really need to get this organized.
01:42Because I know I'll be posting more.
01:45So I want to make it easier.
01:47So I looked and I found the perfect solution.
01:50So for me, there was a problem.
01:53But then I found a solution for it.
01:55And for you, it'll probably be exactly the same.
01:58There's an issue that you have.
02:00There's a friction point that you have.
02:02You just need to get out there and find that solution for it.
02:08I work like three to four hours a day.
02:11It's no secret.
02:12I talk about this all the time.
02:14The reason I'm able to do that is because all the friction points and all the problems that I've had,
02:22I've created real simple solutions so I don't have to worry about it.
02:28And the next one is my website and being able to post quicker.
02:32So there's always a solution out there.
02:35Go out and look for that solution.
02:37Anyway, have a great day and I'll see you in the next one.
02:41Ciao.
