Nothing will test your character and your heart more than the pursuit of greatness.
The pursuit of greatness will give you clarity that you couldn’t get from anything else. It will reveal the true intentions of the people around you. You’ll start to realise that the people around you, most of them at least, don’t want you to win because if you win, they run out of excuses. They run out of ways to protect their ego. They run out of ways to justify their shortcomings. Things will only change for you when the pain of staying the same is greater than the pain of change. Nobody loves you until everybody loves you. But you have to understand that you have to love yourself in the midst of the chaos that life will inevitably place you in. This world will pray that you forget who you are so they can tell you who you are. But you’ve got to know who you are and what you represent. Keep your real ones close and stay sucka free.
The last of a dying breed 🩸
