Here, here!

For many that haven't experienced it, such inspiration can seem cliche. Sort of like "Great things come to those who wait - but only what's left over from those that hustle". Being consistently passionate about something is infectious to those around and motivates them to want to help you reach your goals. Great advice Jacob and best of luck in your endeavors. :)

Jacob, this is a great post! This is right inline with the things I have been thinking about in my series on success. I plan to use this idea at some point, don't worry I will certainly link to this post when I do.

>Don’t let anybody tell you no, and don’t let anybody get in the way of your dreams and your goals. If you want something go get it.

Great point. I love the positivity in this post Jacob. We all have enough to deal with when it comes to our own resistance. Let alone the resistance of the outside pressures of society and our friends and family. If you really believe in your dreams, there is no justifying them to anyone. I find that my own demons and doubts are enough to contend with, I don't need to hear about anyone's resistance to my path. No's are easy, try saying yes to success.
