Mentor One Person in Life to Understand You’re Made for More

“If you try to be everything, you’ll be nothing.”

I always wanted to be the one-man army for our brand because it sounds cool to brag-off, you get it.

I used to keep doing whatever tasks I got and stole whatever I can’t do because it is out of my department just to have more tasks on hand and I enjoyed doing it as well.

The more tasks I had, the more I felt alive.

Probably, I wanted to be the Wonder Woman in real life.

Or, maybe I wanted to distract myself with tasks so I don’t have to face the harsh real world.

I kept taking all the tasks I could get my hands on until one day, a team member gushed cold water in my dry thinking— oaaaauuuuch!

“If you try to be everything, you’ll be nothing. Try to be the hero and you can’t enjoy the rain outside. Be the crew and everything you wish depends on you.”

That felt true. I cried. For five days.

I couldn’t bear my tasks going to someone else. The tasks I fantasize about daily. Tasks that gives me the desire to sleep three hours late and wake up two hours early leaving my comfy bed that I don’t allow anybody else to even sit down.
