The world will say that you’re crazy until you succeed.

February 4, 2013 2 Comments


Most creative people are labelled “crazy” by the moderate middle at least once or twice in their lives.

If you haven’t been told that you are crazy, then perhaps you need to take a few more risks.

Most people live their lives imprisoned by fear, so when you take risks it challenges their safe way of being. BUT the ideology of normalcy, safety and most of all FEAR must be challenged if we are to do anything worthwhile with our lives.

Of course the world will say you are crazy until you succeed; after that they will slap you on the back and tell you that they believed in you the whole way through.

LIARS.

But none of this matters because as risk takers we do not live under the yolk of another’s label but we follow that sacred voice that calls us forward into something more.

    Yes, even my own family have been perfect pricks about this. And even after successfully running my own guitar studio for 8 years, I am still weird, crazy and lazy. Oh well. Sometimes when people come around it is simply too late.
