The shift from an amateur mindset to a professional mindset.

Amateurs are pretenders, they fake, they make excuses, they have various reasons why they can't do it, they follow how-tos, techniques, systems, prescriptions all leading to nothing, they never penetrate deep to the core of the matter, they are always fucking around on the surface, they are emotional, they don't take it seriously, their acts are only on the surface of curiosity, their intention is weak, mind is dull, they are not honest, not sincere.

Professionals are serious, they are not about fucking around, they get the job done with A+ grade at all cost, they penetrate directly to the core of the matter, everything they do is sincere and honest, bulletproof mindset, they control their emotions, they study and train to better their weaknesses, always sharpening their mind and body, they make no excuses, they don’t react but respond.

Out of 100 people, 99 are amateurs-all living in their fantasies in future with their wishful thoughts and imaginations but they never amount to nothing and 1 is a professional, they get to get everything because professionals have done their homework already, they live in the now, focus on the task at hand because they are serious, they sincerely want to get the shit done so they find ways to get it done.

Professionals are masters at what they do. Amateurs are pretenders living in their fake world of excuses.

Professionals are fully in control of their mind and body. Their body and mind can breakdown but their spirit never wavers even after death.

Amateurs are slaves of their mind and body, indulging in useless activities, wasting time and energy.

Professionals live and exist in the NOW, amateurs live in the past and future.

99 amateurs against 1 professional, it’s not even a contest, it’s a massacre.
