The top is lonely.
Wrote that in my notes a while back. Figured I’d share with you all!
The top is indeed very lonely. It's like, society (the school system) tell everybody that "perfection is not attainable" and people quit before even trying!
It's like, no, no: the "ideal" is never attainable, like you cannot "grab" the horizon or God.
But it is NOT A REASON to stop chasing the damn thing!
Men (and woman) of my generation needs to stand up to mediocrity, put their welding mask down and start fixing their own life before saving somebody else! I am a mess; like everybody on the planet. I have my weakness — I am ANYTHING ELSE BUT WEAKNESSES, as Jocko Willink would put.
Here’s a quote from the man: “I get emotional over stupid things, I waste time, I care too much about things that dont really matter, I judge too much. But I do not accept that. I do not accept that my weakness are what I have to be. I am fighting those — It is okay to refuse to become our weakness.” Boom.
I am in control of who I want to be, and so are you.
Picking oneself up and getting better each day, that’s something to do
Out.
