Doing something only when you “feel like it” is a guaranteed formula for failure. Passion isn’t enough, talent isn’t enough; you have to commit to putting in the work. Somewhere, there’s someone just as passionate and talented as you that’s willing to hone their craft daily – they’ll beat you on game day. Pursue your passion and be willing to put in the painstaking work it takes to succeed. Lots of folks want success without sacrifice but life doesn’t work that way. Marathon running is a great metaphor for life because in order to succeed you have to make daily deposits over a long period of time.
