Should I Give Up On My Dream?
There’s more to that than you think
Yeah… that’s a tough one.
Because… if I say yes, I run the risk of encouraging people to live a very very hard life of uphill battle after uphill battle. Which means they run the risk of burnout and bitterness.
But… if I say no, then I’m not just a realist. But I’m also a jaded asshole.
I’ve told myself that a TON all throughout my 20’s. Especially after I graduated college and my blueprint for life ran out.
But fast forward a few years, and I found something of an equilibrium to pursuing my dreams without really pursuing my dreams.
Allow me to elaborate.
The Social Narrative & Your Narrative
If you’re American or visited/know a lot about America, then you’ll know that there’s a lot of pressure put towards “Doing what you love”. Or even further, “Making a living doing what you love.”
And there’s nothing wrong with this statement at face value.
