Most people were raised on the lie that "as long as you try your best, everything will work out."
This is false.
The truth is...
The real world doesn't give a fuck how hard you tried.
It cares about whether or not you win.
...and if "your best" isn't enough to win...
It doesn't matter if you did your best or not.
You still lost.
Quit denying that truth to protect your ego.
Get pissed.
Get sharper.
Get disciplined.
Get to work.
Losing is only useful if it makes you dangerous.
Raise your standard.
Make “your best” something that actually wins.
Until then...
"Your best" is irrelevant.
