How To Lock In?

[SimpleGuy]

Hello, everyone. I want to focus on money now and I know about concept of "locking in" or "monk mode". So I want to do it. Maybe for all of my life, because the most fulfillment I get from life is doing my work.

How it locking in/monk mode look like? Any tips?

Is it possible to work for 10-12 hours a day on a consistent schedule, maybe even for whole life?

@SimpleGuy That monk mode, or locking in just refers to removing distractions, that's it.

Remove distractions that robs you of your energy and time and devote those to something you want to see progress in.

And what are distractions? That question is personal, depends on what distracts you. For me it was social media, doomscrolling, other dopamine-depleting habits, mindless socialization, mindless drama, even a relationship at some point, but that was me at a specific point in life, doesn't mean that relationships are distraction in general, that's why it has to be a conscious choise, not something you read on the internet.

Audit your life for couple days / weeks hour by hour, what is it that you do that can be removed and those hours channeled into a more constructive thing that you're working on?

That can be done, look at all those tech bros and Elon Musk types, but is that what you truly want? Maybe for some time yes, to achieve certain level of success but whole life? I'd reconsider that if I were you.
