This is the second half of yesterday’s post: Things You Do NOT Need. If you haven’t already read it, please click here now.
What You Really Need
If you don’t need most of those things, what do you need?
You need passion. You need to be absolutely passionate about what you
believe in. If you don’t feel passionate about something, chances are you
haven’t discovered it yet. Keep looking.
You need a vision and a task. The vision tells you where you are going;
the task tells you what to do next.
You need the two answers. What do you really want to get out of life?
How can you help others in a way that is unique to you?
You need commitment to stay the course. Most people give up at 5,000
hours; the winners continue to 10,000 and beyond. I liked what Seth said
about the 3,000 posts he’s written: the first 2,500 were the hardest.
Very Important: What’s the difference between the things you need and
the things you don’t need?
All of the things in the first category are up to you. Most of the things
in the second category come from other people.
Mostly, you need enough. You need enough money, enough time, enough
courage. What is enough? That’s for you to decide
But don’t worry about what you don’t have. When you let go of all the
things you don’t need, a lot of other things become much easier.
