Life Lessons For Hustlers



"Lord of the Rings Edition"



(And The Hobbit, too)

A thread...

The Shire is a safe and happy place.

But nothing ever changes if you stay there.

Getting Started on Your Journey Sometimes takes a little push.

Some of us are like Bilbo and are called to step out into something exciting ...

Others of us are more like Frodo...

Driven to chase success by the knowledge of what life looks like if we ever quit.

However humble your beginnings, your early victories often give you the tools you will need for bigger adventures later on.

This journey isn't just about the destination...

It's about the people you take with you.

You will not always travel with the same people.There will always be the chance of

Some treachery...
Some painful partings...
Some unlikely alliances...

But these, too, are part of the journey.

A big enough goal will elevate you above your personal prejudices

Character will be tested when you are asked to choose between

Principles
&
People

(And many fail such tests)

There are days where you may not feel like you have the strength to go on.

But with the right friends, that won't matter.

Through it all, remember what you're fighting for.

It might be:

-friends
-building an empire
-living out a dream
-accomplishing a great task

Or maybe it's as simple as finally being free to fully enjoy what you started with.
