This week I started 50 Cent's new book, Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter and I can honestly say that this book has a unique way of taking the reader through the mind of a hustler. Some would say that a hustler is always looking out for their best interest, but doesn't everyone? Even if we're looking to create a win/win solution, the end result still is in our favor. Every one is a hustler in one aspect or another and the earlier we come to grips with that notion the more we can get what we want. But why don't we all have what we want? In one word, fear.
From the moment we are alive we all have one emotion in common and that's fear. This feeling is necessary for us to develop as human beings. Without it, we can't create. By using it, we advance our society. Practically, it makes sense for us to use fear. But why don't we use it? It's because it's scary and it's scary because it's unknown.
Everything in life comes down to the choices you make. Earlier in life the choices were way easier or non-existent. Growing up our parents make most of our choices, from the school we go to, to the clothes we wear, to the food we eat, etc: however, as we grow up we end up having to make tougher and tougher choices. Making yourself do what you want to do, when you want to do it, is easier said than done and is one of the toughest feats anyone can endeavor. We all have an affinity to choose the path of least resistance when it comes to making difficult choices. The question is, why do we do that? Maybe it’s because we have become accustomed to the person that we are and the person that we want to be just seems too hard.

CAR
This acronym has enabled me to push my limits daily in the four most important wheels of life: the spiritual wheel, the physical wheel, the emotional wheel, and the financial wheel.
When all tires are fully inflated, the driver of the CAR can get to every destination they desire.
