There was a time when we used to categorise people under two heads:
1) Those who sit idle and hardly put in the work,having no interest in refining oneself and helping to raise one's standard of living.
2) Those who work and try to compete with others to have a sense of supremacy.
At that time,people who were under the second head used to be the elite class. The people who always try to compete against the herd.
But now the times have changed. The people under the first head are the ones who are officially broke while the people of the second head have been categorised as average, who only participate in a competition without having any significant impact on the process.
Over the years, a new breed of people have emerged who are nothing like the above mentioned groups. These people are relentless,who always try to disrupt the status quo. These are the people who are way past ahead of competition and seek complete domination. Every person in this world aspires to dominate his field, smashing up the competition and create a monomaniacal obsession towards his work. For those who are aiming to get there, I wish to share some advice with you which may help you in your journey of mastery. First and foremost,you must have the realisation that you have all the power inside of you to turn your dreams into a reality. You must be committed to your dreams and vow to yourself that no matter how bad it is or how bad it gets, you will not lose hope and strive every single day to get a step closer to your dream.
Now, after having that realisation, some might say that you should start thinking positive thoughts and think of holding your dream in your hand. But fortunately, I don't hold that opinion which will stagnate you. I would highly recommend you to do the toughest part of the process right away i.e. Work. One does not get the things which he seek by wishful thinking or positive thinking. I firmly believe that if you want something, then you've got to put in the hard freaking work and go all out to get what you want. Putting in hard work will not ensure you of reaching your desired position in life unless you learn to OUTWORK others.
Elon Musk didn't get here by putting some work then resting on his couch. He outworked others. This is the only way I know of sure shot success. Let me conclude by a quote which best describes my thoughts:
You've got to be willing to do the things today others won't do, in order to have the things tomorrow, others won't have.
Hope it was of help to you.
