Listen to Your Gut.
If something doesn’t feel right—whether it’s a situation, a relationship, or just a persistent feeling—trust your instincts. Your body and mind often sense things before you can put them into words. Don’t ignore those internal warning signals or brush them aside and get some help.

Alec’s Little Nugget:

The real hack is understanding what a niche actually means. If everyone’s talking about something, it’s already saturated — that’s not a niche anymore. True niches are the quiet corners, the topics no one’s paying attention to yet. That’s where the real opportunity is. To find them, go straight to the source, dig deeper than surface-level trends, and uncover what others are overlooking.

Derek Lil Nugget:
Live Your Vision. Love Your Life.

Most people do it backwards — they grind now with a “someday” mindset, hoping one day they’ll enjoy the fruits of their labor. But someday isn’t promised. And when life throws a curveball, the dream can slip away before it even starts. Get clear on your personal vision first, then build a business that supports that life — not the other way around.Because real success isn’t just about working hard. It’s about working with purpose.
