No one knows exactly how their path to success will go. There’s always this underlying sense of discomfort regarding the future in anyone’s journey. Though, you can’t let the fear of the unknown stop you from exploring. Through trial and error, you allow yourself to find clarity in what makes you feel alive and what you’re willing to devote your life to. Each trial, even the messy, scary and difficult ones lead you closer.
