RE: Do You Know What It Takes to Get Here?

in #life5 years ago

My first guess is a boat.

Oh...you meant like um...not literally there...but like...where you are...or trying to get...

I'm just not a fan of glamorizing my entrepreneurial journey.

Why should you? There are enough idiots and assholes out there making light of what's seldom an easy journey. Not just the get rich liars. Building a business is usually done in long hours at great hardship and often ends in failure. Who wants to read a book about hundreds of days of trying everything to succeed and falling asleep sore? Though it can make for some good blog posts at times.

I do think that starting something great is only for the crazy, rebellious ones. Yeah like, how else are you going to deal with uncertainties, disappointment, changes, debilitating anxiety if you are not that mad enough.

Possibly. It certainly takes a lot to even go against the standard nay-sayers. "Oh, you can't do that." "That's impossible." "You're going to do what?" "Just go get a normal job." Blah blah blah blah blah. You have to have a lot of determination...and maybe a bit of crazy. But that means the "sane" ones are stupid brainless sheep that will just follow anyone over a cliff...which is what's happening currently with the world. Tons of brainless sheep just blindly helping people destroy the world...which we kinda need to live.

Having that bad attitude/rebellious impression or persona, I surely don't attract a lot of positive experiences with people at work.

A lot of bad attitude is environment. Sometimes you need to change your's so you can even have the chance to be happy.

It's way easier, of course, to sit, work - or wait 'till 5 pm, and pretend you're okay with everyone. Pretending you fit in.

Depends on who you are. There were always the kids in school that fit in perfectly, and the kids that didn't fit in at all. Some of those that didn't fit in would later be hugely successful. Some of them entrepreneurs. Some of them never fit in and are never successful. I can't really see the popular kids being hugely successful and starting their own business...but I suppose some of them could. Fitting in isn't always the most important thing.

Good luck moving forward on your journey!
