Obsession is a gift

Obsession is a gift

Each time I hear the word “obsession”, I smile. There might not be any other word that people misunderstand on such a scale.

Obsession has such a bad connotation. It reflects the imbalance, the “unnecessary” ambition and being “stubborn”.

It seems irrational.

It seems counterproductive. 

Whereas I strongly believe that:

It is beautiful.

It is necessary for all the major improvements.

It is crucial for being a visionary.

If you feel that you can see a path that other people cannot see, and if you feel obsessed with it, then go for it.

Not going for it is a big mistake.

If you want to create a difference, be proud of your obsession.

People who do not feel obsessed about anything do not feel a deep necessity to improve. 

If you do not improve, you cannot build.

If you do not build, you do not lead.

To open a new path for the next generations, own your obsession.

It is a gift.
