Day 050
Dear dreamer,
Important lesson
I am definitely a different person compared to who I started as. It's like the feeling when you are dreaming and someone harshly wakes you from that slumber. That's what harsh reality was doing. Somehow, I was not averse to the idea even though sometimes it felt sort of pushing to be me. I was sort of picky previously when it came to what to do but more than anything, I am beginning to understand that it was hardly only about what you planned for, what you did not want. A lot of it will be unexpected but you must do what you have to do as long as you can.
I was watching a story of someone. He mentioned three things that I realise are actually important for the long haul especially if you will survive and not lose too much. We are all bound to lose a few here and there but the point is to get through life without losing too much. If we lose so much that our wins pale in comparison, then you have really failed at it. The three things are;
One, stay humble and never forget your roots. Do not take any thing for granted. This is the parts of you that will always be honest and keep you grateful. Two, stay hungry and never let your passion for more than you are given go extinguished. Do not stop aspiring for more even when it feels like too much and others seem to have accepted average. Keep working, keep tracking. Three, remain true. This means you should stay loyal to your cause. You can change approach, strategy and every other thing except the original cause.
Don't forget, you have this one chance.

You made my day
