Pressure creates diamonds

Day 1049 - Day 589 - Aug.31.21 - Pressure creates diamonds

Pressure is a privilege. Never forget that. It’s a privilege to be under pressure. Whether you’re playing a game and coming down to the last moments of having millions of eyeballs on your every move, it’s a privilege. When you’re in the midst of it, it may not feel like that because the moment may be so great but it’s always a privilege. Enjoy the spotlight. Embrace the pressure. Enjoy the haters because it means you’re doing something right with your life. Just because people offer their opinion on what you’re doing or who you are does not mean that they know who you are. They don’t know the struggle. They don’t know the failure. They don’t know the pain. Even if it looks like you were an overnight success, they don’t know the time it’s taken for you to get where you are. No matter what, focus on the work. FOcus on the present. Focus on the problems in front of you because nothing else matters. Smile and enjoy the moments. Saw the most beautiful starry sky I’ve ever seen. Remember, pressure creates diamonds. Embrace it!
