We believe the stories we tell ourselves, so why not make them powerful and passion-driven? Why is it easier to believe that the next big thing is just going to fall in our laps than it is to believe we can get ourselves there with small steps every day? Thomas isn’t going to sugar-coat this for you, stop hoping and praying that things will work out, get off your ass and chase down what you want. Even if it were to fall into your lap, if you didn't work for it you don't deserve it.
