People try to tell me I should rest more. People try to tell me I should take a break. People try to tell me I should slow down. People try to tell me to “live a little”. And I am! Living a LOT, honestly. Living more than I ever have before. The thing they don’t realize about me, about US, is that this hustle? This stuff we do everyday that looks like WORK to everyone else? Actually IS us living and being HAPPY. Doing what we do best. Being who we truly are. Getting paid to share our gifts with the world. We don’t have to slave away in an office, in a cubicle jail cell, in ANY PLACE, because we know we can do better than that. We know we ARE better than taking orders from someone else (BLECH, as IF we would let someone try and boss US around!). We have this thing called PASSION. This thing called getting it the fuck DONE. This thing called craving the RESULTS. And doing what it takes to GET those results. It’s actually next to impossible for us to rest. It makes us feel restless, gross and even PISSED OFF. We just wanna CREATE! We just wanna SELL! We just wanna be US! And so we do. The words “rest”, “break” and “slow down” just aren’t in our vocabulary. They make our skin crawl, honestly. The fact of the matter is, the HUSTLE is what gets us up in the morning. We LIVE for the hustle. Would die for the hustle! Cannot, WILL NOT live without it! Always going, always...
