I know I haven't been on here in quite some time, but trust me, it's not because I've given up... but because I stopped talking/questioning and started doing.
What I am doing now is not quite fastlane yet, but it will translate into that eventually. Not to get too into it, if you wanna know just PM me.
Anyway, someone recommended I make a twitter to promote myself on a higher scale. I did so, and within a day I had about 15-20 followers, which I thought, and still do - was miniscule. My sister was saying "DUDE! Are you serious? How are you not happy? Come on, don't be so ungrateful".
It's not that I'm ungrateful, but that I know if I, even for one second, start to say to myself "Hm, yeah know... maybe I am doing really well", my work ethic will slack. I mean this when I say I REALLY am working hard like you guys have told me to do. Some days just working through the night and not sleeping for 24 hours, or going to sleep at 4am and waking up at 10. Granted, I love doing it, but still- bitch work will always be bitch work.
But is this a bad thing? Not necessarily being ungrateful (because I am grateful) but not being content?
People don't seem to get the whole "I don't wanna settle for average, I wanna make something out of myself".
Hell, half of my friends don't talk to me anymore because they've become miserable. They have nothing to work toward except for what their parents tell them is important. It's sad.
