RE: HARD WORK > TALENT

in #philosophy7 years ago

@cryptoreports Everyone can't be an Astronaut or Center for the Lakers (for that I agree). I am a realist and I know there are certain examples where most of us are simply screwed. BUUUUUUUUT, I (personally) like to have the mentality that I can achieve anything (even if I know the odds are against me...yes, I lie to myself on purpose). I am not always successful in achieving my goals; however, I am sometimes extremely surprised at some of the progress I make when I apply myself 100% (i.e. I want to be a millionaire by 30. I am currently not a millionaire at 26 and I have a ways to go; however, I did double my income in 2 year). I'll take it! Perhaps this only applies to me personally, but I tend to thrive when I am totally committed and believe I can get what I want. I'll admit, its an aggressive mindset... but that just my style.
