The Hustle

Know your dream

By Boss KellyPublished 6 years ago 2 min read

Another dawn breaks as I enter this world of familiarity. Struggling to keep an employer’s grip has led me to disparity. For so long , I’ve tried to go above and beyond wherever I work. But the harsh tone of failure lives in the shadows and lurks. The next day I wake up and called to my employers office with fear. Little did I know my employment status would change and simply disappear.

“ Son, we appreciate all your hard work and desire. However we don’t feel you’re capable enough and therefore you are fire. Your fire in the world that needs to be cold and icy. To keep you as our worker is dicey. “

Every moment of this conversation burns in my mind clip by clip. And it all ends with my employer give me a pink slip.

But there’s not a story or failure and grievance no please no very clear. For no that’s your child of greatness we should never live in fear. My true calling is to not answer to another person or another institution for monetary gain. It is to become my own boss with no doubts and no shame. So each day I work greeting the morning with a smile. I take my frustrations with my pen and paper and the friction between the two last for quite a while. I am not a victim I am not a casualty.

While many think of becoming being your own boss is a dream no I will make it my reality. My ambitions are high and my tags cannot be any clearer. And every day the only person who could stop me lives in my memory.

You’re not Talented nothing you’re never going to make it.

It’s the demons in my mind sometimes I can’t escape it. Like every demon they can be exercised and cast away.

For the world shall watch the fruit of my loins and they shall all say. This guy is a fighter he never gives up. He deserves the applause so let’s pour him a cup. A couple success a cup of talents a cup that she’ll never run dry.

So long as your efforts are in abundance your spirit shall never die. I’m not the richest man at least not yet. But everything starts with a dream and never forget. So take him in your dreams plan cautiously and don’t be afraid to struggle.

For every champion and every conqueror never reachesThat status without the concepts of hustle
