hey Reader, mau here.

sippin my morning coffee. 9:00 am. writing to you:

and...

I already ran, filmed + edited a reel, and gratitude maxxed all morning.

life has been feeling like a dream lately. probably because I live in Bali.

but...

there is one small shift I've been making lately that's been changing everything for me.

which is:

in the smallest of moments, as i'm going about my morning — I remember to shift my internal state.

you see,

I used to always move from this underlying 'go go go' energy. shit, I still tend to sometimes. but just in the last few weeks, I've been catching it more.

the other day, I asked myself:

"if I already had everything I wanted — the money, the villas, the business, the perfect life — how would I move?"

and well... it sure as hell wouldn't be from this anxious 'i need to go and hurry up' place.

it would be from a place of calmness. I would move slower. more intentional. more…

precise.

I'd obviously never stop building, creating, and working on the things that are pulling me.

...those are the things that make me me.

but – the place i'd be doing it from would be different.

so,

that's what I've been doing lately as I go about my day.

when I catch myself wanting to move fast.

wanting to 'hurry'.

or moving from 'i need to get it' instead of 'i want to do this'…

I stop. I take a deep breath. relax my shoulders.

and then I just carry on.

because most of the time, it's not about what you do…

it's about where you do it from.

try it today.

try to become aware of the place you're moving from.

this one shift could change everything.

much love

mau

ps. on April 1st i'm running a 2-week 'sell what you know' sprint.

I'm helping a small group take what they know and turn it into an offer people actually pay for.

we won't be niching down or picking 'one' thing – we'll just take the things they're already good at and make it actaully valuable for others.

this is how i've been making money from Bali for the last 8.5 months.

reply 'vamos' if you want the details.
