An underrated trait that isn’t talked about enough is stubbornness.

Be very stubborn. Be very very stubborn about the things you want out of this life thing we’re doing here.

Refuse to be beat down. Refuse it. Refuse to lose your spark.

Be a mad man. Nobody cares.

Let people say you’re cringe. They’ll adjust later.

Look stupid. Look foolish. Look like a novice.

No problem.

Most men live in quiet desperation. They’re tiptoeing through life.

Don’t let that be your lot.
