Stop looking for Overnight Success

Did you ever get frustrated and impatient because something took a LOT longer, and was way harder than you thought it would be?

I know for me, I used to think that success really did happen overnight!

This idea probably came from watching a little too much TV, and thinking that the superstars I looked up too didn't work extremely hard to get where they're at.

So, when I started my own business, the fact that I didn't become rich overnight was really discouraging...

What I've come to know is that if you want to achieve something big it’s going to take a while. It takes hard work and dedication. It takes working on your craft while others and chillin'. And that it's ALL about the work you put in when nobody is looking.

Although it's easier than ever for someone to get their name out there(thanks to the internet,) it's becoming more and more difficult to actually focus on anything. In the world that we live in today, there's a BILLION distractions trying to steal your time.

Being successful means: 

1)That you’re not going to fall for all the distractions, and that you’re going to put a laser focus on your goal.

2)You're willing to be patient and turn every failure along the way into a lesson. A setback is just a chance to learn and do it better the next time.

3)You will commit and be in it for the long run. Just DECIDE how your life is going to be and don't care how long it takes you to get there. Think long-term!
