When you struggle/grind persistently for years, when you sacrifice partying/spending $$$/eating on a regular basis/sleep and you don't see any progression that near equals the work put out: its depleting, when people like your work but don't appreciate it or like it enough to purchase or help with exposure it feels like an internal collapse (especially when you see and know others who take short cuts/sell themselves get to where you aim to be),
You begin to steadily ask your self, why am I doing this???? Is it all worth it???? Am I wasting my time???? What am I doing wrong???? And it feels like the weight of your creative world is on your head, shoulders- arms and back of your neck: and you're just carrying it around heavy lifeless- This is where it Becomes Easy to Quick, drop everything you believe in and walk free, No Responsibility or Obligation to your Dream......
!BUT!
....this is where you pick up Another Weight, a Heavier Weight, the Weight of Regret, "what if", "I should had", "if I didn't quit...." And this weight isn't on your upper mentality anymore, its in your HEART and walking with a heart with that kind of weight is walking dead... When you stay Persistent till Success the Weight of the Sacrifice Lifts Up and becomes the Aura that Fuels your Drive even More!.. No weight in the heart, just High Spirits
Never Give Up No Matter How Gloomy your Path Seems or Becomes and success isn't Self Accomplish and that's it, its When you Achieve all of your Dreams Capabilities and you Share/Guide and Build with Others on a Progressive Path
Its Very Vital to have a Circle of Progressive People.. You Feed off of Their Vibes and Excel on their Inspiration

" And this weight isn't on your upper mentality anymore, its in your HEART "
ReplyDeleteThat's deep, and true on so many levels, take it from someone who's dealing with 'what ifs'
The point is, you gotta reach rock bottom a few times on your climb upwards, or else it would never be worth it and you will never enjoy the fruits of your labour.
All these trials we go through on a daily basis is a test of our faith, our strength, our trust in our own abilities, the weak at heart won't make it far, but the strong ones always prosper. The struggle is there to prepare us for whats to come. Maybe the past 3-4 yrs toughened you up enough with life lessons learned and such things of that nature, to be able to deal with that one crucial event/step/battle (or even small event etc) that will come up in another year or two, that might..just might be the window of opportunity that will open up all the doors for you.
Keep this Beautiful Struggle, as Talib Kweli says, going strong because you are destined for Greatness.
Blessed Love
I love how you feel the thread of this... You feel exactly what I feel and hat I mean... Exactly! only the Strong Hearted Prevail, And I agree that the Struggles on Your Path makes your Accomplishments Feel That Much Better, You Gotta Earn before You Deserve!
