An NBA player currently won a championship but feels like a useless garbage because he didn't play a single second in finals. It only means that success is a feeling, it is not a result, it is not a destination nor trophy. It is not being on the social media and acting like a winner because most people still feel empty after winning a little bit. If you didn't work for something and you won... you will feel worthless, as simple as that. Most people are pretending to be a winner, they are holding trophies, they are flashing their achievements but they knew that it is fake. Just like a bench player who is afraid to take risk, afraid to take the last shot... he will never feel like a winner because real greatness means taking the risk and doing what most people can't do. That is the formula for greatness, you have to do what most people can't do, you have to risk what most people can't risk. Greatness means sacrifice, it means pushing yourself to the limits and seeing your full potential. It doesn't mean comfort and security, it means struggle and fear. You face your fears, you struggle and you find a way. Most people are acting like a winner but deep inside they haven't won anything. Trophies, pictures and likes doesn't define your character. You know if you gave your everything or not.
Always look for the next imperfect and scared action. You don't need a perfect life, you just need to be yourself and you will never become yourself if you're always looking for permission and approval. Just do it, just look for the next step and do it. Never mind about what people say, never mind about what's going to happen next, keep moving forward and never stop... that's all you need to do. Greatness is pushing through despite of being scared and unsure. If you are unsure and uncomfortable then it is much better. Take the risk and never give up, push yourself to the brink of defeat and just keep going. The time is now, if you wanted to become great then you need to do magical things now, something that most people would not even dare to think. You need todo the unthinkable and make a stand to finish no matter what. It doesn't matter if you're tired, scared, lost or stressed what matters is you do what you need to do in order to get to the next level. It doesn't matter if you are feeling bad, your feelings doesn't matter at all, what matters is you do the right thing and you keep going no matter what. Greatness is not about winning or succeeding, it is about trying and taking the risk, it is about facing our fears and not settling for comfort that will never make you grow. You have to try because when you grow old you will regret that you didn't even try. Just become a tryer and not a result chaser, if you will try then you will have more fun, if you will try then you will be able to experience greatness, it is not a win win situation but you will feel good because you face your fears and you didn't hide like everyone else.
