“I felt alone and worse it was my fault I wondered if I was just wrong, an imposter, a 22-year-old kid who had no idea of how things actually worked. Now, years later, I understand that that is how things work, when there's no sense of higher purpose, so it's up to all of us to create it so we can all keep moving forward together.
One of my favorite stories is when JFK went to go visit the NASA Space center and he saw a janitor holding a broom and he asked him what he was doing and the janitor replied: " Mister President I am helping put a man on the moon." The purpose is that feeling that you are a part of something bigger than yourself, that you are needed, and that you have something better ahead to work for. The purpose is what creates true happiness. J. K. Rowling got rejected 12 times before she finally wrote and published Harry Potter. Even Beyoncé had to make hundreds of songs to get Halo. The greatest successes come from having the freedom to fail. Ideas don't come out fully formed, they only become clearer as you work on them. You just have to get started.”
Thanks.
