Haunted by potential…
Yesterday I turned 32.
A lot of the people I look up to in this game that I’ve met have told me things like “you’re dripping with potential”
That I’m right there.
And as I turn 32 that same potential that used to excite me has started to haunt me.
Multiple times I’ve thought I was knocking on the door of my big break only to let life block me and let the moment slip away.
I’ve dealt with real challenges.
But everyone has.
That’s life.
So I sit here this weekend and wonder… am I ever going to kick the fuckin door down?
The problem tho is the whole thought process of kicking the door down sounds like your usual grant cardone type of just work harder, grind, push through type of advice.
And at the end of the day I’m already a work hard guy.
That’s all I do.
My job and my life has made me gritty.
People talk about being in the trenches while they sit on their laptop lol.
My day job is the actual trenches.
Sometimes the only answer there is bein gritty as fuck.
It’s gotten me far in “real life”
But hard work isn’t what’s going to get me where I want.
Finding the bandwidth to be creative is the missing key for me and my situation.
Sometimes I have it and sometimes I don’t.
Being creative, resourceful, and consistent seem to be all that matters.
Something crazy happened last night as I was split testing whiskeys 😅
I came to the conclusion that the door doesn’t need to be kicked down.
It’s already open.
It’s my job to walk through it.
That’s our only job.
