RE: Success Is A Journey: We Need To Do Today, What We Want To Achieve Tomorrow
Thanks for bring up this point, that success if a journey. Too many times for the younger generation, they see the lifestyle and glamour of their idols, but they did not see the suffering and sacrifices they had to go through to reach where they are.
They misled themselves, trying to "become" their idols, by doing the things they do, owning the things they bought. Sadly, if any emulation is to be done, I think the attitude of those idols, especially during their younger, striving days. That's what supposed to be copied and acted upon.
Sometimes I'm being told that they deliberately choose not to see the journey, hoping for a quick fix. Hope, sadly, don't always work that way.
That is very true especially for the younger generation. Not sure whether this is partially due the parenting style. I will do some research and this could be my next topic.
Someone asked this before in an event I attended, directed to the entrepreneur that was speaking:
"It's because of entrepreneurs who always show off their amazing lifestyle that is giving the wrong perception to the younger generation."
Over time, personally, I posted less too, because I am conscious of the message I'm projecting, intentionally and unintentionally.
And don't even get me started on the humblebraggers.
