Thank you.

I was relying a lot on someone. We had the same goals & aspirations. We had the plan. We set out to achieve it. And we were working hard.

Yesterday I was told that the person will be leaving my city, going far away. It’s okay in a way, we weren’t committed to this dream, well at least he wasn’t. I was. But I guess I got ahead of myself.

I really thought that would be my future. This future that I imagined completely vanished overnight. I think that is the most difficult part to accept.

I know this feeling will end. I know that there will be a different business partner to work with. Maybe there won’t be.

As Timothy Ferris said, it’s lonely for the 1%, that is why a lot of people accept mediocrity. I kind of understand what he meant by that — having unrealistic dreams is scary & dangerous.

It’s good to hear that I am not alone in this.

So, I thank you for this article and reminder to be positive, despite the way things seem.
