I am 17 year old. I am using substack so that I can by my writings. I want money so that I could make my education accelerate.

Thanks for such valuable insights!

This is the clearest breakdown of why so many creators hit a ceiling and burn out right after they hit their income goal. The insight about wrong type of hard work vs right type of hard work is something most people learn too late and too painfully. I've been thinking about this exact shift myself. Building things that compound instead of things that just pay once.

The funnel visualization at the end made the whole model click in a way that most business frameworks never do.

Really valuable piece Stijn.
