May As Well

Everyone’s definition of success looks different. Therefore not everyone can achieve success the same way. It is definitely not achieved overnight. It most likely doesn’t happen in any period of time one would consider “short.” I promise you will never achieve success if you give up anytime it gets hard. All you really need To achieve your wildest dreams are, Discipline, faith & knowledge.

On the surface it may appear that Imaginables & @skooliedream are “overnight success stories” the reality of that success took….

Riding my bike/longboard to work & anywhere else I wanted to go, for 8 months, while I saved for my little ford ranger after returning from Hawaii. And I mean EVERYWHERE, sometimes I would ride up to 2.5 hours just to get where I wanted to go.

Living in the back of that ford ranger for 6 months to save up enough rent money for my first apartment

Working 6 waitress doubles a week for 6 years.

Thats 312 weekends sacrificed, many holidays, & most special occasions with family or friends.

Picking up other odd jobs any chance I could. Landscaping work, working with a small events company, mopping floor Matts and helping with kids class at jui jitsu, picking up dog poop out of peoples yards for cash.

The list goes on. This is not a “pat me on the back” post, it’s a wake up call.

Some people work 70 corporate hours a week for 6 figures. Get one weeks vacation a year & and a 40min lunch break.

I worked 70 hours a week in a position that allowed me the ability to travel as much as Possible While still saving up for the ultimate dream.

Neither is right or wrong. Both are hard work. Both require Discipline, faith & knowledge. Your passion can lead you to money, but it’s unlikely money will lead you to your passion.

Whether it’s climbing the corporate ladder or chasing your wildest dreams, shits probably going to get hard. Time is fleeting, might as well use yours to feed your soul.
