When we think of people that made it, we assume that they were | The Sun & Her Flowers

When we think of people that made it, we assume that they were great from the start. As if they learned everything faster than everyone else, as if their achievements predicted their future. That could be true in some cases but there's absolutely no use to have skills and talents if you don't go through the fight of showing it to the world somehow. Everyone has atleast one thing they're extremely good at, maybe we have discovered some, maybe we haven't. But why do you think only a selected few of us are somewhere that can be called success? (I believe success is subjective, by the way. My idea of it and yours could be miles apart.) It's a rough road to take. You have to be someone's assistant, someone's junior, someone's amateur at some point. Even if your idea is big and can change the world, you'll have to start small. Just because you don't wake up one day and find yourself at the very top of the ladder doesn't mean you won't get there. Your hustles matter. They make a difference. They're pushing you towards something. They are the stepping stones to your dream even if they feel like irrelevant wastes of time at the moment. Keep pushing, don't get your head out of the game just because it takes longer than expected.
