Build your own hustle

From the latest phones, to what’s in vogue, flashy cars, huge houses, the fastest devices. At some point or another we often find ourselves wanting something that all too often seems far, far beyond our reach, many times because our purses, pockets and wallets have a ridiculously whirly vortex of space. Nothing wrong in wanting the finer things in life.

So we sit and brood over our safara state, go into depression, get ulcers and turn from dreamers to coveters, there is a difference I hear. The truth is though, these things are actually within our reach, and it really is that simple. It is said that nothing feels better than being your own boss and that makes one twice as proud of their hustle. There is a lot of power placed within us and in the wake of every new day, we forget to meditate upon that and come back to sleep on the same when we retire in the evening, in the comfort of our beds. Whoever coined “sitting on a pot of gold’, definitely had me in mind when they said it.

We have seen it happen and we will continue to see it happen. Is it happening enough though? I think not. Every youth wants to ‘create jobs’ but after all that talk nothing much comes out of it. It really doesn’t add up… but I know what to attribute it to. We don’t know what we are good at, how to commercialize it to our advantage; and we lack the drive to want to find out. We lack passion and that will forever make the difference between us and the likes of Ace Maich, This is Ess, Emmanuel Jambo, Dennis Kibet just to name a few youth who have actually sought to commercialize their talents and passions. They will continue to drive their hustle owing to the fact that they took time to know what were good at.

Most successful business ideas aren’t sourced from the media, they are internal instincts, a feeling, an urge backed by the knowledge we have about ourselves. Once you have done that, you can start to grow your business and feel boss. Tell a friend, to tell a friend.
