The only way to know whether you'll attain your greatest dream that's very difficult to get is by working at it for a very long time and confronting the negativity that comes with the process.What you want has a high chance of failure, enough to make you very uncomfortable. The process will cost you money and stress on your mental and physical health. It'll require at least 7 years of hard work, meaning thousands and thousands of hours of sweat, both mentally and physically.
