Stay true to what you do, keeps it real
Success is a daily dream of many. We strive everyday to perfect the skill we have chosen as our careers, but what defines being a star? What is the main purpose of doing what you doing? It is evident that the youth of today has chosen a different route from that of our parents and those that came before us. We take more risks, we go harder and we pour our hearts in the things we believe in most. We do this everyday even forgetting that these dreams sometimes make you loose track of important things in your life.
There's really nothing wrong with being ambitious, nothing wrong with wanting to make it out of the situation you were born into. It becomes wrong when you start feeling that what you do on a daily basis is better than what someone else does. we hide our insecurities behind the "haters", the people we believe are out right jealous and would never want to see us succeed. Truth of the matter is most of us don't even have haters, how can someone who lives down the street hate youu when you are both stuck in the same hood doing different things to make it? How can you justify not working with another niga simply because you and your posse think what he is doing is irrelevant to you?
Most successful partnerships comes from places you least expect. I think when you set the bar, you mustn't forget who makes you. A star shines, but if no one admires it it becomes pointless. stop acting like you own the world cause in order for you to make it you need the support of people you don't even know. It is very satisfying to go to sleep knowing that you helped someone else rather than counting the people who did you wrong on that day.
When you start going out and letting your ego lead you instead of just being yourself and letting your work speak for itself, remember this...when you started doing what you are doing you never really knew you where going to progress faster than most people. You didn't count on getting lucky breaks. You were just brave, and fortune favors the brave.
There are no stars, only people who represent a beacon of hope to those on the same road as you. You choose to be a leader, do not let success cloud your judgement because it can disappear as fast as it appears.
Believing you're a star, defeats your purpose.
