Notes on CEO Grindset
MEDIA: Rich Homie Quan, "Type of Way"
EVENT: Rich Homie Quan utters the immortal words, "Mr. CEO is what my title say."
ANALYSIS: we here at Media Events, LLC, are proud to announce that drew millard, our founder and CEO, has adopted the “ceo grindset.” we will not be offering further comments at this time.
however, due to the extenuating and potentially alarming nature of this disclosure we have prepared a short FAQ.
What is the “CEO Grindset?”
simply put: you are 100 percent a brand, 100 percent of the time. every day when getting dressed you must ask yourself, “if i find myself in a zoom call with the guy who made this shirt, would he pay me money to wear it again?” if not, throw that fuckin shirt out. you have no friends, lovers, or acquaintances — instead, you have potential business collaborators, onlyfans partners, and squares that you need to immediately excise from your circle before they infect you with their intellectual poverty. by this i mean the poverty that exists inside of their brains.
Got it. What happens when I find a fellow brain-rich individual, or even a person whose brain is financially solvent?
everyone is your employee whether they know it or not, regardless of whether they like it or not. if they are in front of you, they are serving as a drain on your time and given that time is most obviously money they are legally obligated to donate their own time. what can they do for you right now in this very moment? at bare minimum they MUST accept the business card that you have just handed to them, and they are OBLIGATED to follow you on all of the social channels listed on said business card. ideally, however, they will join your street team to “get the word out” about your valerian-infused cbd oil exclusively sold in select sunoco locations throughout the greater delmarva peninsula. direct cash compensation will, however, work in a pinch.
Sounds great! So what do I actually do?
you are an AI thoughtfluencer. you have created several exclusive NFT collections, many of which were NOT programmed to steal from whoever so much as looked at them. you create videos of yourself working out daily that are sponsored by your own valerian-infused CBD oil that is exclusively sold in select sunoco locations etc etc etc. you are a life coach. you have written several e-books about various mindsets and attitudes. your penny stock discord has flown under the radar for months and any jet you post on instagram was legitimately rented with a stranger’s credit card. you make youtube tutorials showcasing skills you have watched youtube tutorials about. you buy and sell personal data but you’d never call yourself a broker because you only get richer. you own a 3d printer and found your dropshipping plugs on the deep web. your supreme dupes have never been flagged on stockx. you mentor seven young men you met on a bodybuilding forum. you subscribed to twitter blue and have replied to elon musk so many times that he decided to follow you. you send him a DM offering to work for free at least once a week. he never responds. your tesla has a salvage title.
Hmmm, sounds perfect. But what does my embodying the CEO Grindset entail?
you wake up at five in the morning to catch up on email, after which you chug bulletproof coffee while reading the first and last chapter of a self-help book. you then log in to your linkedin premium account and post a picture of the cover for your fellow ceos to behold. every sunday you prowl restaurant patios looking for unattended credit cards. those people weren’t going to the bathroom after the bill arrived; they left them because only you know how to make their money into more money.
Anything else?
content is power. post the most content and you will have the most power. the end.
