Each day, we often see things we can't necessarily have right away, but we want it NOW.

A flashy Lamborghini zooming past you, a large mansion that catches your eye when you're driving down the road, someone in the gym who is bigger and stronger than you, a person with wealth and status that you aspire to be. You want these things. You want them right now. You'll do whatever you can to get yourself closer to these things, without mapping out a process that you will enjoy navigating.

When you see these people, however, it is only the top of the iceberg. These are the material results that only people at the surface level can see. What you cannot see is everything below the water: the insecurities like the pain, the lack of fulfillment, and any baggage that person may be carrying on their path to wealth or success.

It is best not to draw motivation or pay too much attention to the material successes we see of other people. Instead, focus on your own process and the joy that it brings you. You will often find that if you chase money, success, and the material things alone, you will wonder why it made you happy in the first place when you get there. This will leave you searching to fill the void that is still within you.

Do what you love. Ask others what made them happy in their QUEST and JOURNEY to reaching their success. Instead of comparing what you have to what others have, find inspiration from different people and implement it into your own recipe for success.

Find your passions and what gives you life every day. Allocate your time and effort to these things and the happiness that you can bring to other people in the process. The rest will come.
