You don’t have to hustle — if you don’t want to.
There is no law of nature that says — “Everyone in the world has to hustle all the time.”
No doubt, hustle has value. But there are a lot of things in the world that have value — are you seeking all of them? We forget the small matter of individual choice.
People don’t want the same things. Nor do they want the same life. That is what makes everyone special.
There are people for whom ambition and achievement are like oxygen. But there are others who care more about the small pleasures of daily life. And they are both right.
Furthermore, life is not always the same. When going through a rough patch, even the most ambitious person will need time to heal. Then, there is no need to be superhuman.
Animals in the wild, when injured, take rest. That is how they recover. We seem to have forgotten that.
So find your inner compass. Choose things that are right for you.
Hustle if you like. Don’t hustle if you don’t. Just don’t judge others based on your choices.
