🏁 The Hustl Kickstart

How Kevin Hart’s 5AM Rule Built a $450M Empire (And Why It’ll Work for You Too)

Kevin Hart isn’t just funny—he’s a machine.
For 15 years straight, he’s been up at 5AM.
Gym. Writing. Meetings. Stand-up. Repeat.
Even after selling out stadiums and stacking millions, he still beats the sun out of bed.

Why?

“If I don’t do the work, somebody else will.”

(Hart’s words. Not mine.)

Discipline is freedom.

And you don’t have to be a celebrity to use this.

Try this tomorrow:
🕔 Wake up 30 mins earlier than usual.
⚡️ Spend it on one thing that moves the needle.

Stack those days. Watch what happens.
