Be Pushy

The most important advice for me personally I've heard lately, from
writer Dave Holmes.

"BE AGGRESSIVE. Pretend you're giving it all up and going back to school
in a year. Act like you have one year to make it work before you give up
and try something else. What haven't you done? Where aren't you being
aggressive enough? Go do it and embarrass yourself with your pushiness-
after all, you'll be doing something else in a year anyway, so who cares
what people think? Push until you feel uncomfortable, and then double
it. The trick is: when you do that, good things start happening right
away, and you get yourself to a point where you can't imagine giving up,
one year from now or ever."
