There is only one way to see greatness and that's to do what great people do, it's tremendous work and passion, it's tremendous work. That's the only way, that's why only few people are great, only few people are willing to make sacrifices for greatness. It's not going to be easy, it's really hard. Michael Phelps the greatest olympic swimmer of all time sacrifice all of his life for training, he is living like a monk everyday practicing and disciplining himself, and that's why he is super great, that's why he mad it to the top. It is what it is, you really need to make sacrifices, you need to go all out, lock in and grind the whole day, that is what greatness is all about. Remember, you are wishing for something big so you better give something big too, big effort, big sacrifices, big everything. You need to pay the price, because being great is not about wishing, it's about doing, it's a lifestyle, it's a choice, it's a sacrifice.
Look for the training of great people, look at their lifestyle, look at their work ethic, copy them and you will be like them. Greatness is not a complicated thing, you only need to do the basics but the problem is it's hard, it's simple but it's hard because you need to exert a lot of effort, you need to enjoy working all day, you need to separate yourself from the pack. The price of greatness is really big but don't get ever intimidated with it because you can do it. Great people were just humans too like you, they were not special, the only difference is they can make a lot of sacrifices for their dreams, they can leave everything just to get their dreams. They don't care about anything outside of their dreams, they only care about chasing success and nothing else. They don't care about the latest jailed corrupt politician, they don't care about the world melting, they don't care about the cutest dog on the internet, they have their own journey.
Greatness is simply defining what you need to do and you repeat it a million times, as simple as that. Now the question is can you trust the process? can you embrace the boredom? because it's not going to be a lot of fun, you will get bored of it but it can turn you into a different beast, it can make you something special. Greatness can be chased by anyone but it's not for everyone, you are only qualified to experience it if you're willing to discipline yourself to the extreme and take massive actions everyday, can you do it? can you leave any entertainment that you're so addicted with? can you make sacrifices that are out of this world? can you go to the extreme even if it hurts so badly? can you believe in yourself even if you're failing repeatedly? Greatness is scary not because it's hard but because it will take away your happiness, it will make you a nerd, it will make you a lone wolf. But just like what I said, there is a price you need to pay, you can't be getting something without sacrificing something.
