We filmed thoughts and ideas drop two yesterday.


I'm exhausted. But I wanted to take the time to write this down.


We often pursue a version of success we perceive from other's dreams. Watching people make money. Travel. Live a "wealthy" lifestyle.

But the only thing that will ever make us happy is doing what we love.


And,


it's important to understand that doing what you love may not become that other vision of success you saw. It may not manifest into money. Or fame. Or women.


It manifests as an internal fulfillment. Something that can't be described. It can't be captured in a way to explain to others.


It's the feeling of waking up after an 18 hour day of creating, exhausted in bed, barely able to peel your eyes open. Building something with your hands, and feeling the calluses forming. Finishing a marathon, your feet burning and knees shaking.


Knowing you set out on a dream, one that may have been absured, one that only you could have accomplished the way you did.


And eventually,


others see you dreaming. It becomes contagious.


And they begin to seek it for themselves. They may fail, though, pursuing your own dream as if it were their own.

But some may take inspiration, and find their own unique path.


It's never as you had imagined it exactly.


But it's yours. Your own dream. Your own life.


In your own hands.
