“If you want to live an exceptional and extraordinary life, you have to give up many of the things that are part of a normal one.” -Srinivas Rao
The larger mob of society will never experience true success.
Why?
Because this majority is unwilling to become the CEO of their life — they’d rather someone else call the shots.
They are unwilling to take risks, to fail publicly, and be forced to try again after getting knocked down.
They are unwilling to sacrifice what is good for what is great.
In short, they are unwilling to give up their “normal” life.
But this is what is required to live an extraordinary life. You must give up the “normal” life for something far more valuable.
Evolving is painful.
The more you evolve into the best version of yourself, the more you’ll be required to give up. You’ll reach a point where you’ll no longer be able to tolerate negative relationships. Eating bad food. Spending your time on time-wasting activities.
Giving these things up is painful. Most people aren’t willing to do what needs to be done.
