For the longest time, the hustle life\u2019s been lionised,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The tireless worker with eyes on the prize, iron will and\niron mind,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Good things come to they who work their asses off, the\nmagnitude of achievements only as good as given efforts,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No rest for the weary and sleep is for the dead, slackers\ncan only live in prayer if they wish to get ahead,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No respect for the ones sitting on their hands waiting for\nthe grim reaper,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Out on the pitch and barely scoring, wouldn\u2019t even cut it\nfor second or third-stringers,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can\u2019t conquer new worlds if you don\u2019t venture out to sea,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But easy to judge, too, from afar without knowing the full\nstory,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Are you familiar with \u2018em? Or just judging the cover sitting\non the shelf?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why not pick it up and leaf through a few chapters? Might\nlearn you a little something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Illnesses of the mind on the rise, been many years now and\ncounting,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Possible aftertaste from society\u2019s definition of true\nhustling,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the subject of dreams the masses are wont to dismiss\nothers\u2019 as bulldust,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Is it any wonder why too many are closed books and\napprehensive to the concept of trust?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Depression and anxiety spreading like the plague,\ninsecurities and jealousy more than tripled,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Felt by all at some point or another but for many more such\nsymptoms are everlasting,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chase and conquer\u2019s where it\u2019s at, be it work, play and even\nrelationships,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Staying in\u2019s for losers and the cowards, days are made for\nseizing,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dare to stumble and you\u2019re written off and starting again\u2019s\na folly, rest and self-care exercises in sloth and vanity, that\u2019s what they be\nsaying on the daily,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not all plans go accordingly, won\u2019t always reach success in\none go,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Multiple attempts might be necessary, just need to go with\nthe flow, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But where there\u2019s passion there\u2019s a way, just gotta find the\nright one,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But if possibilities yield nada then a fresh start never\nhurt anyone,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ones that y\u2019all judging could be such persons, taking\nnew directions after the previous turned out to be failures,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sitting, planning and plotting, that\u2019s another type of\nhustling, perceived lack of actions could mask a mind working\ntwenty-four-seven,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then there are those taking a load off to catch their\nbreath, gather their bearings and their senses before taking the next step,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Others in deep meditation, floundering against the haze in\norder to gain clarity,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can\u2019t do that on the move, clearly, bet y\u2019all would sneer\nand call \u2018em lazy,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then there are those at war within themselves, the assailant\nunseen and persistent, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Faith in their abilities non-existent, the lingering scars\nare insurmountable obstacles,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Or maybe they\u2019re on the straight and narrow but choosing to\noperate within the shadows,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why does it only count when they\u2019re crowing from rooftops?\nThe silent achievers, too, more than earned their props.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Good on you for thinking that you\u2019re killing it, but who are\nyou to label \u2018em?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Who permitted you to sneer at all others? Some might be\nthriving without your knowledge,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That work ethic sky high, enough to put yours to shame, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There\u2019s always someone better, Friend, regardless of age,\ngender, background or race,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hustling harder than you ever could dream about, eating up\nmost of their twenty-fours, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Seeds sowed before the fruit\u2019s grown, the resulting harvest\nmaybe even greater than yours,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So what if they cultivate from their hiding place? Away from\nshiny tall buildings that you call a working place?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Better check yourself, fast, before what comes to light\nmakes you look a total ass,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Think before you judge, there\u2019s more than meets the eye,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That so-called fool that\u2019s wasting their life could very\nwell be serious hustlers in disguise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
