RE: ⏺ Climbing the ladder of success! My opinion! Part 2

in #life7 years ago (edited)

when I am retired, I am going to be out enjoying life, and just having a great time

I do agree, but to a certain extent. I don't like the mindset of "I need to suffer now to enjoy myself later". That way you keep telling yourself you are suffering and therefore indeed are suffering.

I enjoy what I do, sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less, but at the end of the day I'm happy I worked my ass off hardest. It's not just the final destination that matters, it's the journey. The challenges we face on the road to success are half the fun! :D

I am certain you yourself are like this aswell, but those words can be understood much differently aswell.

Sort:  

WOW man I just love the way you described that. Honestly, that was awesome.

You are most certainly correct. The journey is the fun!! There is no real destination. It's 100% journey up until (I presume) the point of death.

I actually like to say I work my ass off actually hahaha, but the for me is, I enjoy the grind. It is a journey on it's own. Sure it's exhausting, and sometimes I really question myself with the things I do, but it's a journey in it's own.

I definitely agree that going the more stable (but still hardworking) way is great. I am also a believer in doing 'launches', and not just starting something. Doing the grind, means you are going 10X. There is no rest. It's hectic, but at the same time, the longer-term rewards are 10X. It is not sustainable to remain this way, but when starting anything, I do believe in going absolutely all out.

However, after 3-6 months of grind, it is definitely necessary to pull it back a notch, and start living a far more balanced life.

Nice point of view :)

Thanks ^^

Exactly! And let's be honest here, you, nor I, fall in a group of people that would even be able to just lay down and do nothing. We neeeeeed stuff going on. We need the challenge! :D

True. Starting something out is the hardest. Always. But looking back at how much you've done and how many people you've affected, is all damn worth it! :D

Couldn't agree more that sometimes you indeed need to go out of overcharge. I've had a burnout myself and am at times still feeling consequence. So now I have to force myself to take it a little easier. Imagine the horrors haha :D

Oh WOW yeah. It's pretty crazy hey.

I can understand if you have been burnt out.. I am also taking a break every hour today, just to get back a clear mind. I would definitely say it's not possible to work for 18 hours haha. We need breaks.

I can imagine the horrors..

We are only human after all. ^.^"

Hell yeah we are! But we are also limited humans :) I think if we were using more of our potential, we could take the 'only' right out of 'only human' :)

Indeed we could! :D :D

So let's give it our best and more to do so! :D

Amen to that!! Go for GOLD!
