“All along you were living to bloom, but in the midst, you forgot about the sunlight”
We are constantly moving forward towards a goal and in the mid-way, we forget why are we moving. We get lost and forget our purpose. I have experienced it. And I know, you have experienced it too. Tell me if I am wrong.
At least, now you know, we have this one thing in common. But do you know is what makes you, you? It is your hustle. Although, your hustle is different from mine, you aim to reach at the destination. And so do I. Before everything else, let’s understand what hustle is.
What is a hustle?
Theoretically, it means to push roughly but in reality, people refer it to say, “work hard”, “Keep moving”, “Keep trying”, “Keep pushing forward”. There is no one specific meaning but rather just synonyms.
One perfect example is the movie, “Eddie the Eagle”. It is a real-life biopic of Olympian and ski jumper Michael Edwards. His motto is simple, “Never stops trying”. And this hustle of his separated him from the rest.
Why hustle?
To reach somewhere we must start somewhere and this is what hustle is about. As said earlier, it separates you from the rest. My aim here is to help you with your hustle. Let’s start.
Remembering the hustle

- Ever since birth, you are asked what do you want to become. What do you want to be? This one question has made you to see possibilities. This made you aware of the different options available. Let me ask you again, what do you want to become.

On some days, there would be darkness and no hope,
The days would be rainy and winters would be cold,
And when you are left with nowhere to go,
Remember to gather strength and row.
Sweetheart, get up of your bed and work,
Work till things turn around,
And shine out loud,
Giving hope and strength, a cloud.
Trust me, trust the rush,
Chilling your body filling up the crust,
Be flexible and gear the flux,
For happiness is the crux.
