For some strange reason, I always thought everyone was capable of doing the same thing. Ie. if one person can sell DVDs and make 1 million then all dvd sellers can accomplish the same. That was before I realize life doesn’t work like that. We don’t all have the same fate. We don’t have the same luck, the same drive, or mindset so our outcomes cannot always be the same. I always wonder why some people overcome something while others break. I compare resilience to try and figure it out. What I came to realize is that we are all built differently. We prioritize things differently and go about things differently. This is why it’s important to find what is good for you because if it ain’t meant for you then you are just wasting your time. Don’t let people sell you on a dream that was never meant for you. Take your time to find what fits and will work for you in the long run. It may look completely different from your friend’s but that’s ok. It’s for you, not them.
