My Comment on Louis Rossmann’s “LINUS IS JUST LUCKY!”

 |  ESTIMATED READING TIME:  3 MINUTES

I’ve just told my cousin about the god-level dedication of Linus, and his team, and then YT recommended this. Coincidence? I THINK NOT!

I barely trust myself to get things done the right way, let alone gather a team of professionals, and expect everyone to do their job well. It’s not easy at all, and like a female Puerto Rican gamer once told me (Chica), “Luck has the least to do with it.” I didn’t agree with her back then, because I didn’t know that one has to make their own luck in order to build something as admirably big, and successful as LMG — luck always loses to relentlessness eventually. Just when I heard Linus say that waking up at 9am wasn’t early enough when he got a call from Team Viewer customer support, I was like, “Wait, what?” I live, and work as if time didn’t exist, so when I heard Linus say that about 9am being not early enough, and knowing that I saw his 17 videos a week video, it’s like that Asian meme that goes like, “No matter how good you are at something, there’s always an Asian guy that’s much better than you.” Having standards, and being too loyal to myself makes it hard for me to want to build a company, and start recruiting people, so when I see someone like Linus do it, and excel at it, I feel hopeful despite the fact that my cousin just told me how her crazy female employer treats her employees like shit to the point where she fires the wrong people, and decides not to pay her employees on a whim, while also pretending that everything’s going well. I know my cousin very well, and she’s an excellent judge of character, so I don’t need to hear the other side of the story to know that her employer is still too young to run a business the way it should be run.

When I was a kid, and a woman teacher tried to assign me to become her snitch, I had to find a diplomatic way to refuse, so I was like, “That’s too big a responsibility for me, Ma’am.” If she could read between the lines, she’d know that I meant, “Bitch, just because I’m a good student doesn’t mean I’ll be your little bitch. Some of my classmates already hate me for no reason, and now you’re giving them one? Fuck that!” What I’m trying to say is, I always acknowledge the fact that I’m not perfect, so I steer clear of responsibilities I’m not sure I can handle. However, if I agree to do something, no matter how daunting it is, I’ll do it, because like I said before, I’m so damn loyal. Hell, I once did a gig that’s worth 18 grand for 5 bucks, because of that goddamn loyalty. I knew my customer was too damn poor to afford my services, and not being “an influencer” doesn’t help either, but that shit never bothers me, because as long as I make enough money to help my family, I’m cool with it. I learned not to rush the process of making money when I lost around 20K of AdSense earnings a year after I made 10K in total. Once again I’m reminded of something that Jack Sparrow said, “The problem is not the problem; the problem is your attitude about the problem.” I know for a fact that if I treat life as a 100-meter sprint race instead of a marathon, I will neither be happy nor survive. Lucky for me, I don’t waste my time envying successful people, and their success does not affect me in any negative way, since I’m not even compatible with how their success is achieved. Besides, having an employer who cares about results instead of trying to micromanage my messy sleep schedule, it doesn’t bother me that I’m helping someone achieve their dreams as long as they’re not assholes, because once again, I’m not the envious kind. I take things slow, and I keep it upbeat. Being happy, and mentally stable is all I need, and success can go fuck itself if it’s going to make me lose things that matter more. That’s what everyone should remember: never ever lose yourself in the process of achieving your dreams least you fail to enjoy the fruits of your labor. After all, Rome wasn’t built in a day. Good luck!

P.S.
Both Louis, and Linus have earned my respect the minute I knew who they both were. They’re the only 2 people I subbed to on YouTube. The integrity of these 2 legends is something I can relate to on an incredibly deep level. One thing’s for certain: these 2 men deserve every good thing that comes their way, and it’s not even a compliment; it’s a fact. Enjoy the rest of your weekend, guys! 🍻
