By @agentsteven via @RepostWhiz app: You’re thinking... “Jeez, I am such a loser. Look at how much they accomplished in such a short time – they are younger than me!” It’s easy to think this way in our age of instant gratification, Instagram highlights and internet fame. Unless you are Buddha, Jesus or any other enlightened soul, you’ve had these thoughts about other people’s success. In reality, success is less of a lottery and more of a consistent long exhausting journey. It took me 8 years to be able to breathe and another 8 years before I stopped feeling poor. For everyone that is grinding for a better future, just know that it doesn’t happen overnight. Runaway success is very very rare. Big breaks usually don’t come out of nowhere. Big breaks only come when you never accept failure, never compromise, and work tirelessly with a super human work ethic – only then - will the right people and opportunities be drawn to you. Unfortunately this process might take 7 to 10 years or longer. However long it is, it will always be longer than you expect – but that is also what will make your arrival so sweet. Remember to never compare your life to someone else’s highlight reel and keep your head down and keep pushing forward. See you at the top! #perspective #motivationmonday #teamagentsteven - Inspiration via my friends @luxurywatchlife Photo @_queuecumber_ (#RepostWhiz app)
