When You’re Right, It’s Boring

When you’re wrong, life makes sure you know it.
You mess up, fall flat, look dumb, and—boom—feedback. Your inbox explodes, your boss frowns, your gut tightens. Mistakes are loud, embarrassing, and painfully obvious. Like tripping in public. On camera. In slow motion.

But when you’re right?

It’s crickets.
Silence.
Maybe one supportive friend with a thumbs up and a “keep going, bro.” That’s it.

Being right is suspiciously boring.
You don’t get applause. You don’t get trending hashtags. You get… routine. You get progress so slow it feels like a buffering video on dial-up. And worst of all—you start to doubt it’s working.

Here’s the thing, though: it is working. You’re just too addicted to chaos to notice.

See, anyone can spot a train wreck. That’s easy. But legends? They can spot a slow, steady train that’s on the right track—and stay on it without needing fireworks every two minutes.

The hard part isn’t surviving the failures. It’s surviving the success without self-sabotaging out of boredom.

So yeah, you might feel like nothing’s happening.
Good. That means you’re not screwing up.
Now shut up, stay focused, and let your boring brilliance play out.
