⏺ You want to win? Here's what you need to do! Part 2

You can give a person knowledge, but you cannot make them think. Some people want to remain fools, only because the truth requires change.
~Unknown~

How true. I just stumbled across this quote, and it actually inspired me to write this post. It just says so much about the mind, and how we deliberately make the decision every time to restrict our efforts to stay 'safe'.

I think that quote can also perhaps resonate to this quote:

You can take a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink.

I know it could seem a bit of a weird example, but just think about it. We all get, in my opinion, an equal amount of opportunities throughout the span of your lives. Through the Law of Averages, we will all have great times, and we will all have terrible times.

With that being said.. Your destination is in fact not determined by your situation, but rather what you do about your situation. It is because of this very belief that I do not feel sorry for most people.

As sad, and possibly cruel as it may sound, I really don't care too much about a person's position. Look, then again, sometimes it's different.. But in the general sense of things, I cannot stand for people who enjoy feeling sorry for themselves. Moaning about their situation.

Here is the truth. Terrible things are going to happen to you. Guess what? That's life. My advice to you? DEAL WITH IT.

Just accept it, and hustle your way out of things. Why do I say this? Because I can say with confidence, that will-power can overcome almost anything. I don't think there are many things that can stop a person with true passion and heart.

So, how can you apply this to something like Steemit?

Look.. I understand some of you are not coming into this with my particular approach. I get that. So if you are just here to explore a bit, and have a nice time, then awesome! But me.. I cannot do anything in my life without at least attempting to making it great.

I am here to make an impact on other people's lives. So for that, I am coming in with a much harder-core approach. Everything I speak about in my articles, I experience. Where else would I get the ideas for my content.

My approach here is simple. I like to see what other people are doing, and see how I can creatively outwork those people. Keep in mind, I said 'simple', not 'easy'. This is by no means an easy task. For that, I do not expect anyone to do it. It's tough. It's a grind. For many of you, it's brutal. But for me, it's a huge passion. I cannot perform in anything without a challenge. If I do not have something to strive for, then I just get bored very quickly and move on.

So I would say that Steemit is fantastic because it is still an untapped bucket of ideas. There are so many things that haven't been tried yet. So for that reason, I think bringing creativity and true passion into this platform is an incredible investment.

More than how much my posts can make, I care far more about getting my content in front of newer faces. So if you would like to show your appreciation, you can share this with others!

I want this blog to be a happy, motivated place where you guys are free to engage and say whatever is on your mind. A place where if you have something on your mind, no matter how dramatic it may be, you can feel free to speak. Resteems are appreciated!

I reward good resteems and comments! I would love to know what's on your mind. Be bold and talk to me in my comments section! I would to know your opinion and what it is you'd like to achieve. I am trying my best to make 2 high quality blog posts per day. So stay tuned!
