Thank you so much for sharing this Jeff @dollarvigilante, that is exactly how I think and see it! Behind every "overnight success" is usually years of work, struggle, self-improvement and risk-taking.

People forget how hard you work and dont know what you have done to achieve things in life. I have been working for 3 years to build a large following on youtube and face book of 160 k followers, and people go you are so lucky! No, i worked my ass off day and night, weekends and had no life. Keep doing what you are doing!

You might find it interesting to check out my last post where I also mention you, because I believe its really great what you are doing. Let me know your thoughts! https://steemit.com/steemit/@allasyummyfood/how-i-build-a-following-of-160-k-from-scratch
