Building the Strong Foundation, Support Network and Mastering the Basics

5/22/2016

It has taken me a long time to come to terms that before one can achieve higher levels in life, one must build a strong foundation, develop a support network of friends and learn the basic principles. For a long time I've been too concerned with the end result, always striving high but not willing to do some of the initial grunt work. I suppose life is really like an RPG sometimes, in order to unlock the advanced talents in the skill tree, you need to invest your points (energy) into the fundamental skills. Otherwise you may end up wasting time and running around in circles. It seems that some things in life are common challenges that cannot be ignored, avoided or procrastinated lest you delay your own life's progress. I have been dealing with some shaky knee issues lately. I suspect it's an external physical manifestation of what's been happening internally. I need to ground myself. It feels like I keep getting the same reality, the same circumstances and my life cannot progress further unless I take radical action to do the things I have not done before. Sometimes I don't know if I need to do more focused on a few things consistently, or take some breaks, change my mindset and just forget about my new business for a little while. There's so much I would like to learn, do and experience yet I know I need to invest my time and energy on a few things first. I've dealt with this dilemma for quite a while, like when I was deciding if I should do graphic design, concept art, 3D art, etc. Ironic that after all of that, I'm doing something really unrelated full-time now.

Is it possible to become everything, or will that only amount to being nothing? I keep getting asked if I'm still a student. It is true, technically I still am. I am a student of life, always listening and learning without judgment or bias. I am on the right track.
