How do you get paid to be yourself? Naval Ravikant is an entrepreneur and angel investor who grew up in a poor single parent household in Queens and is now rich as fuck. He's also one of the best writers on wealth creation and personal freedom. And in his piece, How to Get Rich Without Getting Lucky, he boils it down to two worse, productize worse. And you have to do them in the right order. First is understanding yourself through what he calls specific knowledge. Specific knowledge can't be taught, it can only be learned. It comes from your DNA, your childhood, and your curiosity, and you find it by looking back and looking within. Looking for the things that felt like play to you, but look like work to everyone else. The people closest to you can help you see it. When Naval was 15, he told his friend he wanted to be an astrophysicist, and his mom said from the kitchen, no, you're going into business. So every time him and his mom would walk past this pizza parlor, she noticed him tearing apart the mistakes that they were making and how they ran their business, and he just couldn't help but think about these things. Once you can name your specific knowledge, the job is to productize it, which means building something that scales beyond you and your time. And Naval says the ways to scale are labor, capital, media, and code. Media and code are the most interesting because they're permissionless. Nobody has to hire you or approve you. And a video or a piece of software can keep working for you while you sleep, so the reward isn't tied to your hours. It's who you are stamped out a million times for, like, zero worst, and this is why it works. When the thing comes from within you, it doesn't cost you what it costs everyone else. Naval says he's always working, but he's never working. What looks like work to others feels like play to him. He's playing sixteen hours a day, and the work is good for your soul because it's made of what you love. It's self expression. You're working for yourself in the truest sense of the tier, and the keys to this process are within yourself. Look through your history, your curiosities, the things you can't stop thinking about are your little habits or tendencies. What draws you in? What gets you excited? Notice these things. Lean into them, and use your creativity and resources no put it into tier world that helps other people. If you do it long enough and well enough and yes your noggin, you will get paid for being yourself. Peace.
