Every day opens me up to new worries and fears. Some stresses cannot even be handled by your “escapes”. There are moments when you do not even have the words to type, pictures to paint or songs to create.
Mostly because you do not even have the time.
But one thing I know for sure is that struggle ignites the hustle.
Let me say that another way, struggle initiates the hustle.
When you do not have something, the drive to get it is all you need to make it.
Well,
That AND capital.
We all have fears of wondering whether our ideas will stick out or make an impact… but we are too caught up in the “what is going on’s” that we cannot even make time for the hustle.
If life is all about priorities, then everything is fighting for centre stage.
You get to that point in life where the most painless thing to do is settle.
But who would settle for average when extraordinary awaits? – A car company… Ford I think.
Listen,
And I am speaking to myself right now.
There is no gain without pain.
The most basic saying there is with all the volume it needs for this moment in time.
The days that go by in seconds and the nights that are sleepless. You wonder why you even have dreams and goals in the first place.
If you have an urge to do something, then that is because the world needs it from YOU.
Everyone can sell something.
But not everyone can do it the way you can.
I have seen a lot of failure in my lifetime and putting myself out there always feels like suicide.
I am at that point in my life where I am pushing to do something generational but just as life cues me in… I get stage fright. And I need to choose between being bold and taking it on or sitting back and having regrets at 70.
No one will like me
It will never work out.
I should quit while I am ahead.
But again… why did I start?
What pushed me so far off the edge that I even thought about this?
What was so important that I wanted to kill it off by embarking on this journey?
What gave me the confidence to have this idea and make this sacrifice that just gives me sleepless nights and panic?
What was the reason I decided to bother?
Then you remember the struggle. Whether it was financially, whether it was just a heavy burden on your heart to do that one thing. It was worth it to get your attention in this loud and busy life.
The struggle ignites the hustle.
Your all is all you need. Hey, that’s pretty good… I should get that printed on a t-shirt.
So pray and get to it.
Okay?
Also, you’ll do great! 🙂
