Episode 7: Time Is Running Out

I didn’t wake up one day feeling inspired.I woke up feeling late.

Late to things I kept postponing.Late to decisions I kept delaying.Late to a life I kept telling myself I’d start “soon”.

That’s what Episode 7 is about.Not fear. Not motivation.Just the uncomfortable awareness that time doesn’t wait.

The Routine Trap

Most days look the same.

Wake up. Do what needs to be done.Finish the day tired.

Tell yourself tomorrow will be different.

Tomorrow comes.Nothing changes.

That loop doesn’t feel dangerous.That’s why it works so well.

No one tells you you’re failing. You just slowly settle.

Episode 7 came from that realization.

The Challenge I Gave Myself

I said it out loud:

“I will become a billionaire.”

Not because I know the route.Not because I feel confident.But because small goals weren’t shaking me anymore.

When the goal is small, the mind negotiates.When the goal is big, the mind panics.

And panic reveals truth.

Talking to Myself (Literally)

I started recording videos for myself.No audience. No uploads.

Just me, talking.

Listening back was uncomfortable.

I could hear:

• Hesitation

• Excuses

• Confusion

• Half-belief

But also:

• Hunger

• Anger

• Clarity trying to come out

You don’t really know where you stand until you hear yourself speak without performing.

Discipline Isn’t Dramatic

Nothing magical happened.

I didn’t feel “on fire”.I didn’t feel “unstoppable”.

I just showed up.

Old habits didn’t disappear.They fought back.

Sleep felt tempting.Comfort felt logical.Delay felt reasonable.

Discipline didn’t feel heroic. It felt boring. Repetitive. Necessary.

Money Changes the Rules

I stopped pretending money doesn’t matter.

Not because I love money. But because lack of it limits choices.

Money decides:

• How long you can wait

• What risks you can take

• Whether dignity stays intact

Ignoring money doesn’t make you pure.It makes you dependent.

Looking Around Instead of Looking Up

I stopped looking at success stories online.

I looked around.

Shop owners opening shutters daily.Small businesses surviving without applause.People figuring things out without calling it a “journey”.

That grounded me.

No background music. No quotes.Just consistency.

Starting With What Exists

I didn’t invent anything new.

I used what I already had:• Past experience• Skills• Work done earlier

I didn’t wait for clarity.Clarity came while moving.

Structuring the Day

My day stopped being emotional.

Morning: Work on the film. Day: Earn. Survive.Evening: Take care of the body.

No drama. No perfect balance.

Just a structure that keeps me moving.

Why Community Matters

Selling alone is exhausting.

Helping people with a clear problem is easier.

When people see you consistently solving something,they start trusting you.

Trust doesn’t scale overnight.But it sticks.

What Episode 7 Really Is

Episode 7 is not advice.

It’s a checkpoint.

A moment where I admitted:I don’t have unlimited time.I don’t have unlimited chances.

And neither do most people.

Not everyone gets a loud wake-up call.Some people just slowly fade into comfort.

I don’t want that.

So this is me, documenting the middle.Not the beginning.Not the victory.

Just the phase where things feel unclear,but quitting feels worse.

Time is running out.Not loudly.Quietly.

And that’s what makes it dangerous.
