The Most Ignorant One Is Still Smarter Than You
The greats look so effortless.
They look so proficient.
They look so hardworking.
They seem so talented.
My efforts are ugly.
They’re rough around the edges.
I procrastinate too much to reach them.
I’m not talented enough.
I’m not great.
Those people you looked up to were just like you.
Rough around the edges.
Their attempts started off ugly.
They procrastinated.
They once weren’t talented enough.
They were once not great.
Yet look at them now.
And look at you, looking up at them.
You know what built that difference?
TIME, EFFORT, AND CONSISTENCY.
You Vs. You.
DAY IN, DAY OUT.
GETTING IN THE RING AND BEATING THE OLD YOU.
No matter how big the chasm was.
It’s as they say:
Rome was not built in a day.
You’re not there yet, but you will be.
Forget about the time it takes and simply make it there.
The most ignorant one is still smarter than you, since they look at the chasm of experience and see an adventure.
Whereas you see an insurmountable challenge.
