a letter to the builder inside you
listen up hermano
brother
if you're reading this, i already know one thing about you:
there’s a builder inside you.
you feel it.
even if you’ve been ignoring it.
even if you’ve been scared of it.
even if you’ve buried it under a thousand distractions.
it’s still there.
waiting.
i know because i was the same.
there was a time when i spent more energy copying other people than building myself.
i didn’t even realize it.
i thought i was moving forward,
but really, i was just recreating paths that weren’t mine.
scroll enough, compare enough, mimic enough—
and you lose sight of the fact that you have something different in you.
something they can’t replicate.
something they can’t manufacture.
but the world doesn’t hand anything to those who blend in.
it opens up for the ones who have the courage to build their own thing.
you have to craft your own name.
your own voice.
your own image.
not just for clout.
not just for business.
but because your soul needs it.
because building something that is yours forces you to become who you were designed to be.
you weren't meant to be a copy.
you weren’t meant to run someone else’s race.
you were meant to create something real.
something that carries your fingerprints.
something that when people see it, hear it, experience it—they feel your spirit inside it.
i'm telling you right now:
there's a market for what you truly care about.
it may not be obvious yet.
you might not have found it yet.
but it’s there.
and it's waiting on you to move.
not to rush.
not to force.
but to begin.
to try.
to fail.
to listen.
to keep showing up.
to carve it out of the unknown with your own hands.
because finding your path isn’t a moment.
it’s a thousand little acts of faith stacked on top of each other.
you won’t find it by copying.
you won’t find it by blending in.
you won't find it by waiting for permission.
you’ll find it by getting your hands dirty.
by building things even when no one is watching.
by choosing originality over safety.
integrity over trends.
calling over clout.
and when you finally catch it—
when you finally step into it—
you’ll wonder why you ever doubted.
so if you take anything from this letter, take this:
you are already enough.
your gifts are already real.
your ideas already matter.
your future is already waiting.
the only thing left is for you to stop blending...
and start building.
brick by brick.
day by day.
real over perfect.
heart over hype.
build it so well that nobody can question who you are.
build it so real that even god smiles when he looks at it.
i believe in you.
more than you know.
stay dangerous.
