The Most Rewarding Part Of Hustling Is The Not The Money
You must see it to believe it. Going from zero to hero is a real thing. You’re always one phone call away from your life changing.

TRUE STUFF
It’s very difficult to explain. You look at your bank account. You analyze it’s running to zero. You realize you do not have enough. The bills are coming due. You are close to default. Your wife is worried. She’s never seen this before. You all are newlyweds. Can you perform? Can you win? There is 1 second left on the game clock. The answer? A resounding yes.
My favorite quote from the Art of War is “Even Amongst Chaos there is opportunity.”
There is truth to this.
I write from first-hand experience. I am different than many. Sometimes my articles are distributed. Sometimes they are not. The algorithm changed a lot here in Medium. Therefore, I write less. Most successfully distributed stories are run on sentences, grammar messes and mainly about someone’s emotional struggle.
Nothing wrong with that. This is what Medium is now. I figured out how to write and get distributed. I wrote one piece in that format. Not my cup of tea. Quality writing is too important to me.
My reads are way down from the 10k+ reads last year. I have a lot of loyal followers. I write for them. It helps 100–200 people each time I write. Eventually it gets to a thousand. All good. I get the messages. If you’re new, I’ll reward you with this help. People claim success but overlook triumph. Do you know the difference between triumph and success?
TRIUMPH
You need triumph to become a professional hustler. The world is fraught with struggle. There is a lot of adversity. You know this. If you are alive, you most likely experience this reality. The fundamental difference between success and failure is resilience.
My favorite quote from the Art of War is “Even Amongst Chaos there is opportunity.”
The ability to remain in a situation for a long time is a staple of a hustler’s success.
