The level of endurance one has towards their passion is fueled by not only their passion and love, but also by their personal discipline and mindset. Whether you are focused or not, when someone partakes in a particular craft or skill, the higher level the time you sacrifice, the more you earn. At the same time, this could also be channeled into negative energy, which at times could backfire, leaving you with a sweated out attitude of being worn out.
As people run around, in circles or running up to the top, there always is the chance that the person could be wasting time, but it doesn’t matter. Perhaps that’s what’s life is about – searching and following the unknown until you realize your full potential or being able to find something along the way. To be honest, how many people in the world can really achieve their dreams? The ideology of failing or the low chances of success in life is then up to debate. Without sounding too discouraging, it’s hard to really emphasize how hard it is to suffice in a world of street culture and hip-hop, where the level of appreciation is always very minimal, and at times, it seems like you are almost obnoxious when displaying signs of temporary glory, and yet would always aim higher, but in reality, there’s a limit.
Kiddies might have playful fantasies, but killers hit their targets. To be able to reach that goal, being tired or worn out is the least you can complain about. It’s almost ridiculous on how when you hear successful people say, “Just work hard and follow your goals,” could it actually mean something or be that easy? Reality could be dreadful and non-promising at many times, but as human beings, if you don’t believe in yourself, then what else is there to trust? The risk and danger of everyday life and your hustle determines your position in society a few years down the road. If you are not running till that last breath or working till you drop, then you are just a child. Sleep is the cousin of death, and workaholics always go farther then the casual workers. Perhaps with the mix of insecurity and uncertainty is what makes life interesting. While people believe in faith, we believe in ourselves and nothing else. IN HYPE WE TRUST.
