The Dream Is Sold Separately From The Hustle

By Evan Sanders


Dreams are free. Hustle however, is sold separately. Boy is it costly.

When on the journey to doing your most creative work, life appears to get pretty simple. You work stupidly hard, fall asleep, and wake up to try hard all over again. Monday through Friday are the staple for almost everyone except for entrepreneurs and those that are attempting to create something. For the case of those people, Saturday's and Sunday's exist as another 2 days of opportunity to get ahead.

This is the grind.

It's going to take everything you have. Your vision is going to demand that you put forward your best effort, work yourself past where you presumed your limits were, and to dream as big as you possibly can. There's nothing like chasing a dream and riding the roller coaster of exhaustion and pure excitement. But this is how it's really meant to be. It's what comes along with doing what you love.

You also truly have to be content to hear the small whispers deep within yourself and tune out the negativeness that folks bring to the table. Without a doubt, take the time to hear those that are trying to give you valuable counsel on your journey, but in the final analysis, you must make your own calls and advance with confidence and with tenacity. Because without those character traits, you may burn out and struggle to face the inescapable fact of failure. Failure is part of the game and it's there to teach you methods not to do what you have set out to do. Failure serves as a very valuable course adjuster when you are going in the wrong direction.

So embrace the hustle, embrace the grind, and embrace failure. These are all parts of success. Have faith that if you keep going towards what you love with passion, you may ultimately arrive right where you've got to be.

Invest in the hustle, it will certainly never fail you.
