We all have asked this question ourselves, what should I do with my life?
Unfortunately, most of us don't really have a good answer to that question! In fact, every time we ask this question, we have a different answer and you are probably already tired thinking about it!
so you decided to simply go with the flow and not burden yourself about it!
But the problem is that your answer to this question will probably determine how successful you are going to be in your life!
Anyways, I will try to help you with that enigma.
Before that lets clear some things out.
We've always heard on the internet, school and talking to our friends: "Do what you love, what you are interested the most", and that might be true to certain extent, and it actually is, but it's not practical for most people because we are passionate about too many things, making it difficult to simply choose one. And what happens is that you start something, get really excited about it, energized and motivated, until you have to handle certain obstacles and you start losing interest and decide that maybe that is not for you, you create tons of excuses to stop doing that. After that, you come up with something new, a new passion, that will end up with the same story, you try, you get excited, you have to overcome obstacles, you give up, and decide that that is not for you and you try something else. No matter what you do, sometime you will get bored of that. That's why it's not only about doing what you love, but it's also important to do what you care about, something you feel it's important to be done, so if obstacles come, you will most likely overcome them, making your way to success. Because with that, deep inside, you know that that is something that MUST BE DONE regardless if you like it or not.
But remember, you will not be motivated all the time, everyone has those days that they wake up and think "I hate my job", everyone can be sad, frustrated, but everyone can also be happy.
But the moment you realize again the importance of your job or business, it will push you to keep doing what you're doing.
You may be thinking that this advice isn't good enough, because sometimes, even if you find your passion, you don't know how to generate income out of it, and we all need money, that's a fact. So what's the point of keep doing it?
It's normal that you think that if you have never been in the business industry.
But believe me, in the modern world, almost everything can be monetized. There are people making a living just by playing video games.
But one more problem.
Even if we do something that we love, we are eventually going to give up if we don't see good results, it will seem pointless. And that is because we don't understand how growth happens, we have always been told that as long as we keep working hard, we will keep growing. But that's not true. Growth is not a straight line that keeps going up and up and never stops. But rather it increases incrementally over time. Take this for example:
When you go to the gym, if growth would be a straight upward line, we would always note the difference, but in the real world, you don't simply go to the gym and see results, it takes time, but if you work out for 4-5 months I guarantee you that you will see the difference.
And everything else works in the same way. So if you are just starting out a business, or maybe a steemit account, don't get frustrated by the view count, just keep grinding, you need to keep improving and always bring better content to who already follows you, and be confident that you will grow.
Don't just focus on what you are passionate about, but also do what you care about! Keeping in mind that GROWTH TAKES TIME so be patient and hustle.
