Face your fears bravely.

Hi People,

I just had a talk with my mum with regards to my part-time degree a couple of days ago.

I came up with tons of explanations as to why I should not get a degree (those were excuses from her point of view.)

I told her like formal education is to make a living and self-education is to make a fortune. I also mentioned that the primary reason why I was able to achieve mini successes all these while was because of my burning passion.

I am 100% passionate about my job, I’m 100% passionate about my side hustles, I’m 100% passionate about steemit. But one thing I have zero passion for is STUDYING.

All these elaborations made her realized that I’m just avoiding my fear of studying. She called me out for it & momentarily I was ashamed of myself.

She left me with this sentence, “you can prove me wrong by achieving all sorts of successes. But it doesn’t matter to me. I only want you to prove me wrong by getting a degree.”

This short episode made me realized that if I do not remove this “tendency to avoid my fear”, I will be in deep trouble when I venture into entrepreneurship in the future.

School officially started today & I will take the upcoming 3 years as a test for myself to see if I’m able to handle a commitment despite having zero passion for it.

If I’m able to succeed, nothing is going to stop me.

Stay Hungry & Hustle Hard!
