1. Most people suffer from a shocking lack of imagination.
2. Most people have a limited range of experiences.
3. Most people think they know far more about things than they actually do.
The strangeness and banality of how things work and how people think is so far removed from what people assume in the brief moments they are confronted with something to think about, reality doesn’t sound real if it falls outside of their actual experience or what they think they know from skimpy overviews of factual infotainment and fictional media.
There are pros and cons to this, but one pro is that I can write about factual things that people will believe are fictional that will never be claimed by the people involved because they would never want anyone to know this stuff is real. A con is that there are many things that have actually happened to actual people that most people will not believe to be real. A pro and con is that it is frighteningly easy to get people to believe fictitious things.
The list goes on an on. And that’s how pros turn into cons, cons turn into pros, and it’s all considered hustling.
Do the hustle.
