This is a lesson in perception and just understanding that right there changes you from worrying to being free and to live happy… A lot of times we just get caught up in what people show us and it’s a lesson and that is you never know unless you’ve shown, there are things a lot of people go through and when you see them one on one you’ll be amazed how they are still standing… not going to lie, if you where hit by the same heat I’m not sure you can live the next minute. So would you now look at the grace you have…
“let me take it back to the beginning of a friends story… at 15 he was already making a lot through what he was doing, but when I approached him now that he’s 24 my mind mind was blown away after listening to his struggles and journey.. he knew what he wanted to do behind closed doors when no one was watching and had a strong over view of where he was headed.. firstly he started with photography and he got a camera of his own, did that over a year and made a few bucks taking shots of models with his design..
He made money editing and when he’s brand got more noticed he got popular and then more earnings streamed in.. but since he liked fashion so well he built something really interesting with some apps then went on to make some shirts and made some profits from doing all that then reinvested. And that kept being the new pattern which was working for him but guess what he lost everything like literally everything… he ran into a road block and that cost him all the money he earned through hustling…
But that didn’t stop him, he had it in him and you’d always want to be around him cause he is a genius… so he looked for someone who would support his idea and his talent and it kind of worked.. At the age of 16 he got his first sponsorship and overall it was a day he would never forget.. there was an event he hosted all by himself at that age but still lost a lot because of the turn up, I think if he hosted something now people wouldn’t hesitate to pay a visit…”
But you know what lessons I learnt from him, he didn’t see anyone above him like a God but he dealt deeper and searched for what will make him shine and started with the little that was available… not that he’s brand is massive but he has something that can never stop growing.. these where just the little things he faced cause he went all in and even borrowed money from his friends and family.. and really pushed himself to the level of exhaustion.
So if you want to start your own business get ready coz it’s going to be one hell of a ride… You may not have an entrepreneurial support but you have to start this even though there will be countless trial and error and so many failures but I promise you that it’s worth it at the other end of it..
Not to discourage you but you don’t have to envy anybody, you’ll be surprised what he or she did to get to that position. It maybe your boss or someone you see having a lot going on even as you try so hard to imitate it wouldn’t add up… what you have to do is for you to build your own career and your vision and then finally add efforts and wisdom towards it..
“Rome wasn’t built in one day” a really famous quote, the energy you’re showing must be put in the right things that will yield you a good result.. I just met him in a party and we both discussed them he told me his last life and how he got to where he is now.. I think he one of the youngest entrepreneur I have seen that makes it big time.. I called friend because I was startling to know him as likewise him too, and that was how my mindset changed.
I really appreciate my reader as you all are wonderful and the main reason why I still do this… God bless you all..
Have a good night rest…
