What It’s Like To “Make It”

I watched a YouTube video today that made me think.

The guy in the video was talking about how he viewed his career when he was young and hungry compared to now when he is older and more established.

It was interesting and inspiring, but there was one idea that stuck with me.

He mentioned three of the biggest milestones in his career and what he thought would happen versus what actually happened. The thing I found most interesting is he never ‘made it’ like he thought he would.

This made me rethink my goals and dreams, I’m not changing them at all, but I am changing my expectations.

Things won’t always go the way we want, and won’t happen when we want.

But if we are doing what we love and have a passion for what we do we get more from life than we can imagine, but it might not be what we’re imagining now.

If you’re curious here is the video I’m referring to.
