This topic reminds me of a chapter two books: The Psychology of Money & The Outlier. They talk about how we tend to look at the patterns of successful and try to emulate with the hope of being just as successful. But not realizing how many factors, specifically luck & circumstance, play apart in a persons success or failure.
Hi ! This was everything I needed to read, when you said “ I know it feels like God is taking us the long, scenic route, but you’ve got the vision & you gon’ get everything you deserve.” I felt this on another level! Yesterday I had one of those moments where I wanted to give up on my dreams, because I feel like I have been on this journey for a very long time, and a part of me is already expecting the life that I have trapped in my head since I was a little girl. But in reality I just like JUST graduated college May 2021. Why am I in such a rush ?? So I am learning that I need to FLY (First Love Myself) and create the habits that my future self will thank me for later. I do wish I was in my dream career as a beauty & wellness, editor, attending events, writing, and traveling. I went to school for advertising and marketing communications and I have been working on my visual portfolio more than my written portfolio. So I do feel like I have to start from scratch but I have faith that this is all a part of the plan and I wouldn’t get this idea of pivoting my career if it wasn’t meant for me. The stars are aligning for all of us I can see it and believe it!
Thank you for sharing this message it was everything I needed today !
I can definitely attest to this! Sometimes the road seems long and you feel like you’re getting nowhere having to put more time in to making ends meet instead of into your craft. Consistency can be hard, but I know the path I’m on still ends in greatness. I’m trusting the Lord all the way! Counting every stride and even the small wins 🫶🏽
New creative here! So much to unpackkkk! I love what you’ve added to the ‘success’ conversation that’s circulating right now. Consistency is necessary but it’s definitely not the end all, be all. I think it’s also important to note that we should define success on our own terms. I’m on the long scenic route right with ya lol!
