The Cost Of Doing Business
You know how many things used to piss me off?
Way too many… seriously.
Car needs fixing = pissed.
I feel drained & like shit = anger.
Marital dispute at 11:59 PM = fuck me.
Stubbed my toe = on fire.
It’s easy to focus on the inconveniences that drop into your life.
But you know what?
There’s a cost of doing business.
• Owning the car that takes you to work and lets you explore the world comes with repairs.
• Cooking that banging-ass meal comes with a dirty-ass kitchen.
• Shaking your thang, going shot for shot till dawn, leaves you feeling like Joe Pesci at the end of Casino.
• Letting dirtbags into your life leads to fucked-up situations.
• Playing the dating game comes with rejection and heartbreak.
• Getting married and experiencing love comes with late-night disagreements (aka shitstorms).
• Having children and seeing the beauty of life comes at the cost of shattering the world you knew.
It all has a cost—
the worst of things,
the best of things.
Next time, don’t sweat it.
