I'm sure we've all heard it: "Yes, but you can't actually make a living doing that" or " You're not as good as them" or " That's not for everyone, just for really lucky people." These types of comments generally come from people who live in a reality of their own, one which they have accepted and created through their choices. That's fine, but the problem is that they believe this to be the reality of everyone else.
I have this interest of reading the stories of people who have achieved incredible things and there seems to be a common theme in the beginning of their journey - they had no reason to believe that they could achieve what was in their dreams, their situation, surroundings and financial position told them otherwise. But they believed, and put action behind their thoughts even when there was no reason to believe it. Secondly, they were surrounded by people who were convinced they would not achieve their dreams, but they put action behind their thoughts even when there was no reason to believe it. Thirdly, they failed a lot in the beginning and had no clue what they were doing when they started out, but still, they got up each time and tried again until they figured it out.
If you're in a position where any of the above is your current position, learn from those who chose not to accept reality and rather chose to create their own reality. They got up each day, put in the work and forged forward until they had brought their dreams to life.
Build your own world, build your own reality and silence the disbelievers by proving them wrong.
Keep well friends and we'll chat soon.
Sincerely
