There is always a price to be paid

 Hey, now I have heard a very interesting day during my usual escapades on the internet and to be specific "Quora website" I came across I don't want to say dumb question(but I did) where the guy is asking what is the best hack to live your own life the way you want, and still achieve your dreams/plans/happiness/success and so forth?

First, let us face it and you can take this to the bank and cash it "there is no shortcut to success" there is however a road to success and a price to be paid which every successful person has paid or rather will have to pay to achieve whatever success one seeks.

Consider this example, I do not know if you are familiar with MotoGP racing, if you are not basically it is just a bunch of guys competing in motorbikes going at lightning-fast speeds. Anyway, long story short the competition has had some very good bikers but one that has stood to be the greatest is the Italian Valentino Rossi.

During an interview, he was asked how does he manage to beat his rivals time and time again he said you know when everyone is on the track it's very easy to go faster on the straight but very hard to go fast on the corners. His strategy was simple to go faster on the corners, and that's how he beat his competitors. 

What is my point? see in life, it is like a race we just have to be faster on the corners, what am I saying? we have to be more agile during times when it is getting tough, we have to put in the work when others are relaxing, we have to persevere when all the indicators are telling us to quit, we have to be more persistent when it is not working out.

My friend there is no passive income/the seven steps to riches/secretes to have billions/ and so forth, all that is nonsense. Please do not get me wrong there is however putting in the work and achieving the results you dream about.

As I close remember it is always easier to go faster on the straight road what is hard is going faster on the corners. It is always easier to look for shortcuts/hacks/secretes and so forth, what is hard is building something from start to finish, what is hard is starting small and accepting being a beginner and willing to grow. Counter-intuitively as it may sound, whoever wins is usually the one who is willing to take the hard things.

You might ask why, why are there no shortcuts/hacks/secretes and so forth for success? well, it has never been, it will never be, and it is never going to change anytime soon in my humble opinion. I suggest we should not ask why are there no "shortcuts?" because there is no answer to that question it will drive us mad rather take this shortcut (pun intended😁) just put in the work, I think that is easier.

Anyway, as always thanks for reading if you like it, a share with anyone will be highly appreciated. If you have any comments, suggestions, or questions feel free to connect with me through my social links below I would be more than happy to hear from you. I wish you a happy and productive week.

Dare

The greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The people who risk nothing, do nothing, have nothing, are nothing. They may avoid suffering and sorrow, but they cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, and live. Chained by their attitudes they are slaves; they have forfeited their freedom. Only a person who risks is free. People, who risk may go through things that seem self-inflicting you know someone looking from the outside so to speak might ask what in the world is this guy thinking? why go through all that? why try you know how difficult it is? These are the people who don't risk anything thinking it's the best decision in the short term but in the long run, those who have risked are the ones who enjoy life, feel, change, find their path, grow, and live fulfilling lives. Just like a plant that is in a cocooned place will always look dull unlike a plant that faces all the elements, is usually more vibrant. Here is my point always try, risk, feel, love, and don't ...

How to know, you are doing the right thing for you

 Hey, have you ever thought that the reason you are struggling with certain things in your life is because of something else other than you? Maybe how you are brought up affected how you view relationships, how you were treated in certain situations has made you change the way you view things, maybe a breakup made you declare there is no love out there, and so forth. I am sure almost every one of us has. Surely what any of us has gone through affects how we view and define these "things" in our life. Talk of relationships, money, and life in general. I mean it is only natural, We are wired the way our brains are created to be for us, to protect us, and thus if anything happens against what is expected it is a cause of alarm. In other words, if for instance what you have done before failed, it's only natural that when you have a chance to do the same endeavor you become alerted and you end up hesitating to do it, or not doing it at all. These "things" that do hap...

The pandemic lessons and why they will always happen

 Hey, surely pandemics have always been with us right?, and as I should also say they are going to be with us. Let us face it there is another virus somewhere waiting to happen and I don't mean to scare anyone but to show what is actually reality. To be honest with ourselves the pandemics that do happen or will happen are usually 99% our faults caused by our negligence, carelessness, and so forth but also through good intentions like trying to experiment with a bunch of drugs to find a better one. Anyway, it should not be an excuse, as pandemics bring all the negative things that we all know yet funny enough through pandemics man has come out more capable and better with a drug to kill that virus and keep the virus in its place so to speak. But as much as pandemics come packed with all the negative stuff we should not forget all the good they come with. what do I mean you ask? pandemics come with their fair share of good talk the Covid 19 pandemic for instance I would say has come ...
