Michelangelo once said if people knew how hard I worked to get my mastery
it wouldn't seem so wonderful at all and I can't tell you how true this is in
today's day and age where people are looking for get-rich-quick schemes where
people are wanting overnight success and when it doesn't happen what do they do
they simply quit and so this is why today I'm gonna reveal to you the five
ugly truths nobody ever told you about success and hopefully by you embracing
this you make to actually continue persevere so you can create the life you
truly born to live opposed to just quitting and just starting over
something over and over again and just failing in life and so make sure to pay
close attention especially to the final point because that is what you need to
hear right now and so without further ado let's go on to the first point which
is to embrace the fact that people will turn on you the moment I began to do
something that was outside the norm when I began my entrepreneur journey which
was at age 17 my so-called friends began to turn on me and they used to say
things like Tim why you wanna start a business in the music industry when
you've got no taste in music they said come on just have fun just live a little
just come have a drink with us why are you working so hard why don't you
rest all of this stuff we're coming from the people I thought were my friends and
that's when I began to realize that this journey towards success can be a lonely
one especially in the first couple years when you're actually stepping out of the
norm in there in your current environment your current peer group
people will begin to turn on you and so you got to be willing to journey solo
until you meet people ahead of you until you meet up the winners that you've got
to surround yourself with and so embrace the fact that it will feel lonely after
all you're attempting to accomplish what 99% of people on this planet can't
accomplish so embrace it let's go on to the second point it's not as glamorous
as you think despite what you seem to check out on Facebook Instagram YouTube
life of an entrepreneur life of a high achiever life of a successful individual
is not that glamorous there are days where it's just pure hustle there are
days where for example we don't just can't say holiday
and just sip margaritas on the beach there are days where we got a head down the
curtain shut and we're working we're really working hard and then in fact
there will be days where we don't even get to spend time with some people who
are closest to us because we are immerse in our mission the core calling of what
we'd really want to put out there to the world by the time our time has come and
that's what I want to realize you've got to be willing to delay gratification you
got to be get clear on why you really want this it's got to be beyond money because
money once you get it you'll lose that motivation then so you got to get clear
in regards why do you really want this why do you want to make it to the top that is
the second point it's not as glamorous as you think so embrace something much
deeper let's go into a third point which is you'll struggle with work-life balance
even more if you want to get into your own business right now thinking oh yeah
I'll be able to create a life of freedom abundance trust me
I spent more time with billionaires and millionaires than you probably can even
counts right and what I realized is people begin to enter this world of
entrepreneurship wanting time freedom but what ends up happening is they fall in
love with their craft you look at Steve Jobs when he is around he didn't have
work-life balance look at Elon Musk he works harder than anybody else look at
anybody who's reached their definition of success and you realized they haven't
got work-life balance what they've got is they're aiming for satisfaction
they're aiming for what they believe gives them fulfillment and life though
aim for work-life balance you want to realize the fact that work is gonna
be part of life life is gonna be part work so integrate the two and aim for
satisfaction in your life you wanna make sure that your life your business
is in line with your values so that is a third point let's go on to the fourth
point you will never run out of problems and it will seem really really hard if
right now you think you're gonna get into this world of success and one day
when you make your million dollars you will run out your problems trust me you
will not never never get to a point in your life where you do not have any
problems it would just be bigger problems you're dealing with
and of course there will be some first world problems such as what color
Ferrari to pick but you will always always have problems you gotta embrace
that so no matter what you do do not get yourself in your mind tripping
yourself up saying oh yeah one day I'll be to get rid of the Audis problems in
my life because they will forever exist so become somebody who is
relentlessly solution focused RSF make sure to remember that one
relentless solution focus focus on the solutions and you will begin to see more
solutions let's go on to the final point no matter what you think it would not
make you happy whatever you envision in your life in regards to you one day when
I'm living just by the beach when I've got my Ferrari when I've got my
Lamborghini when I got my million dollars no matter what you hear if
you're gonna be tying up your self-worth with your net worth you're gonna be
struggling for most of your life you will be chasing things for most of your
life when you get to the top of success mountain you want to jump off just as
quick because you've been chasing chasing goals chasing goals one after
the other and that's why you will never feel fulfilled you have to realize that
happiness is more about the process it's the journey more than a destination so
embrace it now be grateful now have a routine that makes you grateful now
because that is how you're gonna be to enjoy the whole process these are the
five ugly truths that I wish I knew about success when I began my journey
