I cut out everything intellectually appealing but overly complex to execute — now my target is to generate at least $100k within 12 months.

Since I started running this sub, I've stopped focusing on short-term goals and shifted toward medium- and long-term thinking. I revisited my goals and simplified them with a clear, unemotional mindset. Simplification is one of the hardest disciplines if you want long-term success — I cut out ideas that were intellectually appealing but overly complex to execute. I kept only a few projects where the path to the first dollar is measured in weeks or months. My target is to generate at least $100k within 12 months. Anything that doesn't support that goal is off the list. I didn't operate this way before Crown & Capital.
