![Jese Leos](https://bookshelfspot.com/author/truman-capote.jpg)
In today's competitive world, the desire to succeed and make something of ourselves is common among individuals. Whether it be in our personal lives or professional endeavors, we all strive to achieve greatness. However, simply wanting success is not enough; one must be something if they truly want to make something. This article will explore what it means to be something and discuss the key elements that lead to success.
What does it mean to be something?
Being something refers to embodying the qualities and characteristics that align with the goals and aspirations one has set for themselves. It means being dedicated, passionate, and constantly working towards self-improvement. It also involves embracing a growth mindset and being open to learning new things. Those who truly want to make something of themselves understand that success is not handed to them on a silver platter, but rather earned through hard work and perseverance.

The Power of Passion and Purpose
Passion and purpose are essential factors that drive individuals towards achieving their goals. When someone is truly passionate about something, they are willing to go above and beyond to make it a reality. Passion fuels creativity, determination, and the ability to overcome obstacles. It ignites a fire within, making individuals unstoppable in pursuing their dreams. However, passion alone is not enough; it must be coupled with a clear purpose. Understanding why you want to achieve something provides direction and clarity, enabling individuals to stay focused and motivated on their journey.
The Road to Mastery
Becoming successful in any field requires mastering the necessary skills and knowledge. It requires a commitment to lifelong learning and continuous improvement. Those who want to make something of themselves understand that expertise is gained through deliberate practice, dedication, and perseverance. They are willing to put in the hours, seek feedback, and push themselves outside their comfort zones. By continually striving for mastery, individuals position themselves as experts in their chosen field, opening up new opportunities for success.
Embracing Failure as a Stepping Stone
Failure is often seen as a setback, but those who want to make something of themselves view it as a stepping stone towards success. They understand that failure is an inevitable part of the journey and see it as an opportunity to learn and grow. Instead of letting failures define them, they use them as fuel to improve and to make wiser choices going forward. By embracing failure and treating it as a valuable lesson, individuals can overcome obstacles and ultimately reach their desired level of success.
The Importance of Taking Action
Being something requires taking action. It is not enough to dream or have aspirations; one must actively work towards their goals. Taking action involves setting specific and achievable targets, breaking them down into smaller steps, and consistently working towards them. A key aspect of taking action is also being proactive and seizing opportunities as they arise. Those who want to make something of themselves are not passive spectators in their own lives; they take charge and make things happen.
Building a Supportive Network
Surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals who support and motivate you is essential on the journey to success. A strong network provides guidance, advice, and a source of inspiration. They keep you accountable when you feel like giving up and celebrate your victories along the way. Building a supportive network involves seeking out mentors, attending industry events, and connecting with people who share your passions and goals. Together, you can uplift and empower each other to reach new heights.

To truly make something of ourselves, we must be something. This means embodying the qualities and characteristics that align with our goals and aspirations. It involves being passionate, purpose-driven, and dedicated to lifelong learning and improvement. Embracing failure as a stepping stone, taking action, and building a supportive network are also crucial aspects of achieving success. Remember, success is not just about the end result but also the growth and transformation that occurs along the way. So, be something if you want to make something, and the possibilities will be endless.

be something. if you want to make something. is a pop top energy drink spiked with caffeine laden words that are calming to the soul, while at the same time capable of spurring volcanic eruptions of energy and frenzied moments of accomplishment
be something. if you want to make something encourages makers to stay in the moment and allow ingenuity to be the pace car. each short blurb hands over a raw account of an artists rocket fuel fast, can’t stop, won’t stop, sometimes mixed martial arts bloodied adventure. it humorously highlights the speed bumps that were approached way too fast and encourages the reader to push past the exit ramps desperately calling for companionship and accelerate toward the reward on the horizon.
be something. if you want to make something runs over the big scary words of the business world like “copyright” and “business plan” and spits out what makes real sense in the life of doing more of what you love for a living.

be something. is long flight, overhead compartment jammed with images following kenT throughout his journey to make the walls of your home, office or secret lair as memorable as you are.

as a marketing consultant, i spend a lot of time teaching people how to be. be original. be helpful. be authentic. be obsession-worthy. be so good they can’t ignore you.
when I met kenT it was like getting struck by lightening.
my first experience with him was in a free class i was teaching to 1,100 entrepreneurs. you can imagine among 1,100 people it would be really ridiculously hard to stand out. especially online, in the middle of a fb group that was moving so fast i could hardly keep my little fingers typing. as i was scrolling and connecting with my students, i noticed that every post had likes and comments, but one post had more likes and comments than anyone, and the number kept climbing.
here’s what it said: i’m kenT, and i’m an artist. but not the tortured kind. i create one-of-a-kind images - no two are exactly the same. some are big. some are small. some have words. some have none. but what I really do is make people feel happy + free. they don’t even have to know why. after all, happy + free is a great place to be.
people loved kenT’s unusual “” and took notice. i took notice. it surprised me. because it’s rare to find a business owner who says his true purpose is to make people feel “happy and free.” and you could feel his energy pour through his words, and you could see it in the photos of his paintings that he shared.
as the days went on, kenT’s assignments stood out. always. he was so damn good that, throughout the class, other students were forfeiting their chance to win that day’s prize and pleading with me to just “give it to kenT.” and it wasn’t just his talent that stood out. he took the time to cheer on his classmates. to share helpful and thoughtful comments. he lived and breathed his . everyone knew it. there are so many ways to be it can be maddening. everywhere you turn there’s someone telling you to “be” this or “be” that.
after getting to know kenT, striving to “be” just an ounce like him guarantees awesomeness. since he’s too humble to include a “be kenT” chapter, this intro is my way of doing it for him.
