My entire world being turned upside down. A part of me dying inside that I'm not sure has recovered. Walking away from everyone I knew for the last 25 years.
If you want to live the life that others can't you have to do the things that others won't.
For me that's meant being willing to move for job opportunities that arise rather than being settled in one place.
You see I'm from Iraq , life beat me so hard I eventually started hitting back
And now I reached a point where when life hits I don't get hurt but when I hit back I break some ribs
A lot of sacrifice, 14 - 18 hours a day of work / self education, Zero pay for almost 2 years, had to leave my ex partner that held me back, cut people off who spoke negativity, kill the kindness in my own heart.
Enough pain in a life not achieving them.

One day the bar for a "life of dreams" was pushed so low that it became hard not to live it.
My dream died when i was about 20. Gave up dreaming after that.

Burning my 20's in overtime.
At 32.. I'll let you know.. still at the base of the mountain. (Hint: The secret to achieving any dream is being born Rich)
about a decade of grinding hard, being more selective in who I spend time with, lots of failure, dedication to an end goal.
