Stop chasing success and start enjoying life

What’s to be successful?

I’ve never chased the “success” they teach in school. I chose a life that sustains itself and being able to do something I enjoy doing every day without working too much. The school doesn’t teach anything about that, I only took away basic Maths and English, nothing else.

I have no education or degrees, I dropped out of school after 9 years. I changed schools more times than I can count, I hated the system, I wanted to rip that uniform off every day, I couldn’t focus at school, and was told I needed tutoring.

I had a special teacher up the back right in maths, I had a nervous stutter till I was 21, they thought I was borderline autistic growing up as a kid. I used to rock on the bed and play games with the light and I would play with rocks in the garden until I was 13 and told to stop.

I lost focus, but then I found Muaythai, where I could find that “play” passion again and I kept chasing that feeling and I haven’t stopped.

I’m not saying this because I think I’m successful, I’m saying this because I’m happy that I’ve made a good life out of what makes me laugh and focus every day and sustains us to live a wicked lifestyle.

Pay attention to your hobbies and don’t let them slip as you get older.

Life goes quick!
