Hussle & Motivate
“Come out with us sis we got a section and a few bottles. Just to celebrate passing my test.”
On a Tuesday? Not I, I have an audit in the morning, so I need to in bed by 8:30 which probably won’t happen but I for sure don’t need to be getting drunk.
“But you’re 25 when are you going to live? When do you let your hair down? Do you date? Is there anyone that has your attention when you’re not working? What do you do for fun? “
To be a 25-year-old CEO of a multi-million dollar black-owned company has its ups but also has its downs. Like when you live in a city where the best night in the city is Thursday and you have to open a school at 6 am on Friday.
I opt out of those drunk nights because I’ll have 200 kids screaming in my ears and then tequila will laugh and say
“ you the old bitch in the club now, learn when it’s time to close the tab”
I’m blessed to have the position I have at such a young age but I must admit it’s hard as shit sometimes I wish that I could have time to fall in love and focus my energy on them because my foundation is already built.
Sometimes I wish I could just live in the moment and not worry about hustling.
It’s hard to find someone strong enough to handle you not obsessing over them because you don’t have time to.
It’s hard to get your friends to understand you can’t take off in the middle of the week to go to Atlanta for the weekend.
I don’t have a job that starts at 9 and ends at 5. My job is when I open my eyes to when I close them and then I’m Strategizing in my dreams.
The 20s are for grinding, building a foundation for your life.
The people meant to be in your foundation will stay, they will understand and they will assist the best way they can. Live and love at the moment and celebrate when absolutely necessary. The moral of the story is to make something of yourself. Become somebody before you say you need somebody. Fall in love with you first, then fall in love with what you do. If you follow your dreams you’ll never have to work a day in your life
Balance is for your 30s or maybe just mine.
