Enemies
Sometimes picking an enemy is all the motivation you need. The more spiritual thing to do is to act out of gratitude and love but it doesn’t seem to move the needle immediately. It’s probably better than perpetually throwing darts at your enemy. Aren’t we supposed to love them? Is showing them how wrong they are… loving them?
I think most winners have a clear enemy. Their mission is to prove him wrong, make him eat his words, and bury his doubt in all your success. Mash the gas and don’t look back. I’ll show him!
Think of all the amazing things that have been built, created, or invented in this world because someone said it can’t be done. It’s impossible… you’re wasting your time… you’re just a dreamer.
The winner says: “Hold my beer”
If you don’t have enemies maybe you aren’t polarizing enough with your mission, values, and principles. Maybe you are just too soft? Too much religious glitter to be a winner?
Maybe, just maybe, one of the most loving things to do is to hustle hard enough until your haters ask if you’re hiring.
