The way to success is the way of the
craftsman, where you work really hard for years. You show up every day. You do
the work. You see yourself as an artist dedicated to your craft with a desire
to get better every day. You put your heart and soul into your work as you
strive for excellence. You desire to create perfection knowing you’ll never
truly achieve it but hoping to get close to it. You try new things. You fail.
You improve. You Grow. You face countless challenges and tons of rejection that
make you doubt yourself and cause you to want to quit. But you don’t. You keep
working hard, stay positive, and persevere through it all with resilience,
determination, and a lot of hope and faith. Then you make it! Everyone wants to
work with you. And the world says, “Where have you been?” And you say, “I’ve
been here all along and hopefully getting better day by day.” To the world, you
are an overnight success. To you, the journey continues. You’re a craftsman who
wants to make your next work of art your best work no matter what you have
accomplished in the past.
