Guru advice is a pretty lie. The ugly truth pays your bills.
They promise clarity, deliver fog, and sell you the next thing while your cart stays empty.
Same voice. Same playbook. Same “one more module” carrot.
You become the product. They get the money.
There is a way out.
Join the quiet rebellion. It is boring on purpose. It solves one pain at a time and invoices for it. Results first. Theory later.
Here is the method I use with creators who are done with hype:
Noise Cutoff: Unfollow five gurus today. Mute “funnel,” “framework,” “7-figure.” Protect your signal.
Pain Ledger: Collect ten real problems from your inbox, DMs, or comments. Exact wording. No translation.
Weekly Fix Loop: Pick one pain. Promise one outcome. Draft the steps in 90 minutes. Add one example. Export to PDF. List it for $7–$15. Post a three-sentence sales note. Repeat next week.
Why this works: precision beats performance.
A small, certain win funds the next small, certain win. Confidence compounds. Cash flow becomes habit.
Prestige is overhead. Your audience wants the wrench, not the resume.
Stakes if you ignore this: months disappear, money dries up, and you start to believe you are the problem. You are not. Your workflow is.
24-hour challenge. Mute the noise. Write one page that fixes one problem for your reader. Sell it by dinner. Prove it to yourself, not to a guru.



So much this. Find a handful of goo-roos (they aren't all bad) or at least folks who know what they're doing and focus on them. Absolutely dump the get rich "quick and easy" ones.
You can drown in the ocean of overlapping advice out there -- and it ALL overlaps.
I'll take your analogy one step further -- folks want the bolt tightened, they don't want the wrench.
