anybody else deal with this??? sometimes i swear its a blessin and a curse (at the same damn time) on one end i feel like its good, all this hunger is pushin me to days where imma finally be able to kick back and exhale like ":ahh: we here now". on the other end all this hunger and ambition fukkS with a nikka. to the point that i feel like i cant stop and enjoy or appreciate life for what it is right now cuz i'm so focused and determined on the future and makin somethin better. sometimes i question whether or not i'll even be able to enjoy it when i reach point b, where ever that might be. wonder if maybe i'm trapped in some kinda idealism and'll NEVER be satisfied. i wouldnt say its depressin but its definitely frustratin. i cant figure how to deal

You're happy with 50%. You're on top and you don't have enough. You're happy because you're successful, for now. But what is happiness? It's a moment before you need more happiness.

Right now im making the most money i ever made in my life and somehow im not satisfied with it. My hunger wont let up and let me enjoy it. This voice in the back of my head keeps whispering "nikka you should be making more". I blame the homie for this (:pacspit:) but he's right. Settling is for losers

I suffered from dis for a couple of years. All i did was devote ALL my time to developing my skills (art). I became a prisoner to my own obsession wit gettin better n better at it. And da more i saw da great results from such ridiculous focus, it only made me want to push harder n do it even more. It was like i was thinkin i was buildin up such a great arsenal n base but in reality i was actually buildin a prison AROUND myself without realizing it because dat's all i wanted/desired. Till one day i just stopped n realized dis shyt is gonna be a LIFE long journey and i'm ALWAYS goin to get better n i'm never goin to be truly satisfied because i will ALWAYS be challenging myself to do better than what i did before.

It took me a minute to break out of dat state of mind but once i did...:wow: i felt so light n free.

It's great to have drive n passion but if you're not careful dat shyt can consume dat ass without you eam realizin it. TRUST. :usure:

enjoy the experience kinfolk.....
life is like the bad bytch in highschool...the more you chase
the more she plays hard to get.
ignore that bytch sometimes and life will let you get your
finger stanky.
I used to be on the edge on some....i gotta do this by this time
in my life until my uncle told me something.
you wanna see God laugh at you.....tell him your plans.

yeah stressful is the word. i used to meditate a few months back. it sound corny but that helped alot. i mean it feel like my ambition went up, but at the same time i was able to see shyt for what it was and enjoy it. maybe i should get back on that :manny: this patience game is a bytch though

this the most difficult part of it. the idea that by fallin back i'm SETTLIN for some shyt. you look at jordan or kobe... you think them nikkas settled??? :childplease: :mjpls: i doubt its ANYBODY out there that made somethin major outta themselves and took satisfaction in what they had at the moment. bron finally got his ring last week and when he said he stopped playin with hate and started playin with love it had me like :ohhh: but at the same time i wonder what that trophy up did for him... finally liftin that trophy up. that had to be incredible high. i'm still chasin that first high... and i feel like once you FINALLY get that one, aint comin back at all.

yep, happens to me all the time, until I stop and think that I like my life currently (even tho I want more) and I live for the day. usually I get drunk and party my ass off. to take my mind of things, life's too short to be depressed.

Grass is always greener. Find out what you want in life, then slowly chase that.

Breh I got this problem x10. :sadbron:


I almost literally have a burning fire of ambition in my stomach everyday. It drives me to insanity some times that I just want more and more success. I feel that at my age I should have already been invented something or been recognized for something. It's a crazy feeling I don't wish it on none of ya'll.
