How I’m Finding Inspiration As A Creator Again After Burning Out

I deleted an old vlog. Now I’m starting a new one.

“Necesito mas!!” I said.

I just won a big pot in a poker room here in Mexico City.

I was stuck, though.

It was getting late in the tournament, and I didn’t have that many chips.

I needed to get my ass in gear if I wanted to win this thing.

With about 25 players left, I started getting more aggressive.

I started stealing pots that didn’t belong to me. I started showing people my cards after bluffing them.

I wanted to fuck with them.

And I was.

Within about 50 minutes I 20x’d my stack and became the chip leader of the whole tournament.

I went from the brink of elimination to chip leader.

It was in this moment, sitting at a final table of good poker players as the leader, that I realized something incredible.

This is what I wanted to do.
