PIONEER HUSTLER OR SECONDARY HUSTLER?
The moment you see this, the headline should get you thinking hard and fast.
In my own definition " PIONEER HUSTLERS are hustlers who are the beginner runners on their race to success".
In most cases, they must have had runners before them that started the race but didn't yield the desired results and in the quest to achieve more than the previous runners, they have to start the race all over from the scratch. Learning new techniques and debunking some success myths that held the previous runners down.
SECONDARY HUSTLERS: As the name connotes " secondary ". This indicates that they were pioneer hustlers before them who yielded great results, and in the bid to continue riding on the success train, they keep running or they hire someone to run for them.( Yes, they are that successful). I won't mention names in this category but I'm certain you can come up with a list of people here.
Though most of them still act and hustle like pioneer hustlers.
If at all you want to succeed in today's world, you need to identify the category of hustlers you fall under, failure to figure this out early leads to relented efforts which might not yield the desired results you want.
I'm a pioneer hustler and I'll be emphasizing more on that category.
ATTRIBUTES OF PIONEER HUSTLERS:
√ They wake up by 5am everyday and they understand that sleeping is for the wealthy. Besides, they didn't come to earth to sleep and they can sleep all they want when they are dead.
√ They create opportunities from every challenge they are faced with.
√ They are voracious readers and they live off the pages of books that can transform every aspect of their live.
√ They strive for relevance at all cost because they have seen & understand that the world has no place for irrelevant people.(Ignorance)
√ They understand that their struggle is different and they cannot afford to lazy around or sleep for more than 5 hours at night.
√ They don't care and have absolute no business with what people will say to/about them.
√ They can never watch 5 movies in a day ( never, I'll shake this table soon), they understand that they can get all the entertainment they want when all their goals are achieved and crossed off the vision board or dream book.
√ They write out all their goals and find ways of actualizing them.
√ They are ready and willing to make a lot of sacrifices to attain the height they want.
√They understand the world will not see them, unless they show themselves to the world.
√ Their pains doesn't lead to depression, instead they convert their pain to the fuel that accelerates them to success
√ They don't measure their beginner or start up pace with secondary hustlers. (They are familiar with the stages of growth)
√ They walk around with a success mindset
√They understand that luck = Preparation + opportunity, hence you can't be luck if you're not prepared at all times.
√ They understand that time is money and every time wasted on irrelevant discussions and association is a debit to their bank account.
√ They are the ones that are very strategic and intentional about their associations and circles.( Rich mentality only)
You will know a typical pioneer hustler when you see one. They are never dullards and most importantly, they know that in the bid to attain success, they cannot and will not do it without God and that's why the put God first and hustle behind.
My advice: Do not live, eat, think or act like a secondary hustler when you're nothing close.
This write up is a wake up call to every pioneer hustler in rest. There are a thousand & one things to do, if you're truly intentional about your success.
Remember, success isn't magic, it doesn't just happen
Let's all get up and work, the world is not waiting for us, she has her own agenda and that agenda is to work with the people that are fit to be worked with.
