To the athletes, actors, actresses, singers, dancers, rappers, musicians, fighters... competitors: Immediately when we were born, our blood had talent. But in talent lies a curse because with talent comes expectations. Expectations that are RARELY attainable due to the never satisfied attitude within a champions soul. During competition or performances, this is a REMARKABLE gift to be brave, fearless, heroic, and to prepare tirelessly to WIN....to be... PERFECT. When the lights shut off and the crowd funnels back home and out of your life...forever.... then... its just YOU. This is when the talented, over-achievers lose all sense of purpose. This is when we unravel all over our city with the people that once thought so highly of us to witness in shame and disappointment. This is when we turn to destruction. We see no other option.... Somehow, someway, we have to be okay with no crowd, with no spotlight, with not one ounce of praise. We need to find peace and purpose, anyways. Some of the most talented individuals cannot handle when it gets quiet. When theres no more newspaper articles and attention. THAT defined them. (Whether they knew that or not) But at a certain point, were ALL faced with...... ourselves. So, believe it or not, the star athlete or artist, is VERY prone to depression and addiction issues. Anything..... not to face that its over. To keep the adrenaline alive because without that, were dead... Well, I have good news. The inner peace, purpose, and being compassionate towards others is WAY better than any championship, game winning shot, or packed auditorium. BELIEVE THAT. Its avaliable to you. Work on it like you worked on your muscles, your voice, and your jump shot and youll see.... #BzBe13 Strength and light
