Success really is a marathon that requires daily action. Thinking that you will just get directly to success without failure is nonsense and bullshit. 

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going - Beverly Sills

The reality is you will surely make mistakes, risk failure, experience rejection, look humiliated. It’s not to discourage you, but to prepare you to face challenges like a warrior. 

Anything worthy to fight for is NO SHORTCUT. What others experience may not always apply to you. Life will be your greatest teacher that you need during a tough time. You will learn, grow, and eventually you will succeed. 

NEVER GIVE UP my handsome friends!
