The common answer you’ll get from most people when you ask what they want in life is ‘ To be happy’ they mistakenly think when they get the House, Car, partner, job they desire they’ll be happy this is not true.
Think back to a time when you bought a new car and within a few months the novelty wore off you stopped taking good care of it and you were looking ahead to the next big thing. Now remember how excited you were searching online for weeks on end for the right make, model, colour you wanted it was so exciting. How did you feel during the 3 hour road trip to go and view it ? cash ready in hand to make the offer, theres no better feeling.
Over the last 2 1/2 years i’ve been chasing the goal of building my own business from scratch, something I could be proud to call my own that would free me from the restraints of a 9-5 where my earning potential is limitless and I could truly live the one life that i’ll ever have to the fullest.
Through the struggles of running e-commerce stores, posting reels daily, writing newsletters that 10 people read I’ve come to find happiness and sense of purpose that nothing else in this world has ever given me. Its the underlying superpower that ignites the flame inside me.
If you feel lost or that life is just happening to you set a goal that will take 3-5 years that you can focus on. Something that nobody can take away from you. Be ambitious, remember it takes the same amount of energy to think big as it does small.
Doing something for 1000 hours will put you in the top 1% in the world for that specific thing.
