I'm sure you know this, but the dream is free.
However, the hustle, is going to cost you a hell of a lot more.
Chasing dreams can be incredibly exhausting but thoroughly rewarding. While you essentially work Sunday to Sunday, you end up relishing the opportunity to get ahead and get one step closer to creating something that really matters. You see an opportunity that needs to be seized and constantly move forward towards achieving it.
This is the grind.
This grind is going to take everything you've got.
Dreams don't happen unless you work insanely hard. You have to live up to your potential and if you give your dream anything less that 100% you will struggle to see it achieved. It's not that what you have done before wasn't "good enough," but it's the fact that you have to grow into someone new to achieve this vision. You aren't that person yet, but you will be.
You also have to be willing to listen to the deep internal voice that guides you on the journey you are supposed to walk instead of always letting the internal critic question what you are doing.
Throughout your journey, people are going to tell you what you need to do with your life and how you should live it. That's fine. Listen to them. But in the end, make sure you trust yourself and you follow the vision for where you are headed. If you constantly get sidetracked by what other people tell you to do and lose your way because of opinions, in truth you really don't deserve to accomplish your vision. You must stay focused on what you are doing at all costs.
Again, welcome to the grind.
Embrace the hustle. Embrace the pain. Embrace the challenges and failures that come along with everything that will arrive when you are on your journey. These are not things that should discourage you but things that should "encourage" you. If you are willing to continue down your path no matter the struggle you truly deserve to see it all happen.
Invest in yourself and you will succeed.
