Who in the world do you think you are to chase your dreams, and actually catch them?
How dare you work everyday to build into your vision?
What makes your goals different and more achievable?
Question after question, doubt after doubt, you continue to push through. Because your an artist. An entrepreneur. A bad ass with nothing but drive and positive energy. At least that's what you tell yourself day after day.
Why should you finish? Why should you be different than all the rest? The ones who quit because they was tired of failing, rejection, and being broke because of sacrificing?
What makes your dream so special?
It's your thirst for better. It's that thing they call passion and purpose that you were born with. It's the gift of entrepreneurship that keeps on giving.
It's that last call you got from a happy client, that last review that read "5 stars", it's that last service you gave that left you feeling accomplished and valuable!
The world won't pay you compliments when you need them. The people won't always agree with you, like your work, say thank you and leave you with good vibes all the time. And yet, you still have to find the energy to PUSH THROUGH! You still have to write that blog like a million people read it, and create that video with under 100 views, 75 of them were yours. You still have to continue giving 100% because one day all those things will add up. They will be the bread and butter of your business. No guru, boss, self made millionaire or business mogul made it easy and fast! They all had to, push through.
That's what separates the successful and the unsuccessful. Because of our will to keep going after we've failed, cried, screamed, quit in that moment, and somehow found strength to build again. People will not support you for who you are and who you are not. A person with no intent to ever like you or what you do will silently envy your courage, and then attack you for being brave! Once we understand we are not for everybody, and there will be haters, and discouraging moments, then we can focus more on being US with no apologies. We can move forward with our creative contributions to the world.
Being open and vulnerable enough to share things you love with strangers takes balls! And to be mocked or shamed or talked about because you had enough of them to do it, is ridiculous! Continue being different, brave, strong and encouraged to acquire all the things your heart desires! Always PUSH THROUGH!
I hope this post brought good, positive energy your way. It's sad that so many of us are being brave alone and without self motivation there would be no motivation. But you are your own team. Without your perseverance and tunneled vision you wouldn't be who you are right now! And just know YOU MATTER! YOUR DREAMS MATTER!
