Stay on track or not


When it comes to very competitive career paths, most talented and hard working people don't see their journey through; one of the main reason is belief.

I know a lot of people who dropped their dreams of becoming a professional football player, because there are alot of people that are pursuing the same thing — they believed they won't succeed.

Some dropped their dreams of becoming a renowned recording artist because there are a lot of musicians out there, but only few are renowned — they stopped believing they could be one of the renowned ones.

A friend of mine, once went for an acting audition and saw the crowd there, two months later, he dropped his dreams of becoming an actor. He didn't believe that he could make it anymore.

There are alot of statistics and circumstances that can make one stop believing that he/she is special enough to be amongst the chosen ones.

But the fact is that no Profesional athlete, musician or actor knew that he/she was going to make it to that level they are now. All they did was to keep believing till they made it.

I know that not all would make it, but you will never know until you see your journey through.

Never stop believing.

              To truly stand out in this life takes a lot more effort; effort which can either be in the positive or negative direction.  It's all left for you to decide which side you want to be on.  If you truly want something so badly, you will definitely do what it take to get it or at least get close enough to it. Also, if you really don't want something at all, you will do all you can to screw things up or to not make meaningful effort at all. Whether you want it at the top or at the bottom, you have to try, work or do a lot more than every other person in your world. We won't talk about mediocrity here because with little effort you can just be a  mediocre. Also those that worked hard but still ended up at the bottom, and all those who did virtually nothing but ended up at the top, are not covered in this piece. You can easily put in a little effort to be one of the bench warmers at a football team, but it's gonna take a lot of messing up or poor pe

Perspective — our reality

Most things we do in life is dependent on how we view things or how we perceive things, which in turn influences our thinking, then our actions. The man outside thinks that the one inside is unwise for not coming out for fresh air; while the one inside thinks he is stupid for not being inside the air conditioned apartment. A person failed an exam and believed that it's a sign that he/she wasn't meant to be there, while the other failed and believed that it's a sign that he or she needs to do better or be better. Someone posts an article online and got no feedback, the person stops posting because no one care anyway. The other person posts a content and no one responded — he improved on his content and keeps on posting. Because someone's friend failed an interview, the other believed he would not pass and did not apply. But another friend applied because he believes that now that his friend failed, he will learn from his friends mistakes and pass. Three fri
