Your North Star

Everything we want to do ultimately boils down to a few things that inspire us. This explains why we sometimes choose to follow our dreams instead of chasing money, the universal definition of success.

We endure hardship and embrace discomfort, even when we could lead a more comfortable life.

Find those things. Follow them like a north star.

I know it’s very hard to do that. The world is unfair. It doesn’t care about what makes you happy. It just doesn’t care.

And that’s why we need a north star—your own north star. Your sense of purpose. What inspires you to get out of bed and go to work every day. To do things that change the world you live in.

Protect that with your life, because having a purpose greater than yourself is one of the best feelings, while working on something uninspiring is the worst.
