Most people in life fail or make a lot of mistakes because we are concerned about what other people are doing, and care about the perceptions of other people. But, at the end of the day everyone is different. All humans have different things they want to achieve in life. Everyone’s story to get to that certain goal will be different. As humans we fail to understand this because sometimes we will look at a story of a famous athlete or influencer, then think. “Oh, well they did this to get to their goal so I need to do all the same things as them or else I won’t achieve my goal”. The only special thing that a influencer did to achieve their goal was working hard and staying consistent with their work.
When someone told them they “weren’t good enough”. They used it as fuel to work harder, since some people may think you reach “too high”. Kobe Bryant was told at 10 years old by a guidance counselor, to find a career outside of basketball. If Kobe listened to that counselor we wouldn’t know Kobe as he is today. So don’t let anyone tell you what you can or can’t be, because YOU are the only person who decides your destiny.
