"It's a painful decision, to choose nothing over something in the moment, in exchange for your future self having what you really want.
And it feels like a gamble. It really does. Because the proof that what you really want will be your reality, doesn't quite exist yet.
And if you wonder why so many people don't truly get what they want out of life, it's because to bear that very feeling, is often too much. The self belief that's required to endure isolation and the fear of missing out, in hopes that one day the dream comes true... it's pretty significant. But I'll tell you this: to be the person with that willingness, the one that can digest the pain and keep moving forward until the ideal is found for that person, the ideal isn't so much of a gamble."
