What Are You Willing To Give In Order To Succeed?

How far are you willing to push?
How much are you willing to do to make it to your dreams?
Will you sweat?
Will you cry?
Will you bleed?

Everyone who hasn’t achieved success thinks it’s easy, that the people at the top just got lucky. It wasn’t sweat, blood or tears that made them reach the top but some random circumstance.

But how do you know?
Do you actually know the amount of sweat people put in night and day to train?
Do you actually know the tears that were shed in those lonely nights where success seemed further away than any dream?
Do you actually know how much blood is shed by everyone that has ever dreamed of more?

Success is not easy. If it were everyone would have achieved it.

Luck has so little to do with it!

It’s not luck that makes a best-selling author appear out of nowhere after 15 years of writing.

It’s not luck that turns athletes into the best in the world after 80 hours worth of training, 6 days a week, for hundreds of weeks straight!
