The perfect way to mourn your mundane life.
I saw this multiple times already on Linkedin reposted with huge engagement.
While I understand this is borderline fiction, absolutely unrealistic and in my eyes an equivalent of those pictures with pretty girls laughing with a plate of salad promoting healthy eating, but for me the comment section of this post is the cherry on top cheering how “brilliant” this is. People are so fucked up on Linkedin.
“No meetings before 2pm”, “saying no is a superpower” yeah brill mate I’ll just say no to my boss multiple times a morning forever and absolutely won’t get fired for being difficult thanks Matt xo
I prefer the other Matt Gray tbh, he’s funnier and doesn’t tell me to wake up at 5:30 when I’ve just gotten to sleep…
“I wake up at 5:30 because I fall asleep at 18:30. Everyone should try to live like this bro”
I fucking hate how it is only socially accepted to wake up early. Work life only centers around the early risers and everyone else must suffer. Want to start working at 09:30 and stay for longer? How about a meeting at 8:30? Just be a team player
The thing that’s so irritating to me isn’t the tone, isn’t the weird preaching, isn’t the push to follow on social media. What gets me (as it always does) is that assholes like this push their message as a one-size-fits-all message.
Assholes like this always think everyone else works just like them, and it makes me crazy.
The only thought I’m connecting with at 5:30 in the fucking morning is “I’m so tired, I want to go back to sleep”.
This isn’t terrible advice, but it’s presented in such a way that I want to strike the author for being such a smug prick.
By 10am? You reach 10am by step 4.
Also number 7 contradicts 4. Phone calls can be meetings. But what do I know.
Those are X in boxes next to those in step four. I believe they’re saying “no phone calls, no emails and no dealing with notifications”.
- wake up at 5:30am
Fuck right off.
“Saying ‘no’ is a superpower, it will lead you to your true calling. Trust your instincts.”
“Want my morning routine checklist? Follow Matt Gray”
No. ( :
wake up at 5.30 so you can be at your top shape by 8 am and earn that yacht for your CEO!
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
Funny how it’s not the worst idea but “this alone separates you from 99% of people” is like putting poison in soup and now the whole thing is ruined.
It didn’t say it was better than that 99%; just separate.
Imagine a cup of coffee being all you look forward to.
I’ve loathed people based on less information before, but not with this intensity.
