Looking at this picture, I don’t think these people knew that one day they will be where they are today, but they believed in what they were doing, and they believed that even though they are not there yet but they will get there.
Today they are successful people, and this happened because they believed in their talent and it took them years to be where they are, yet some people think it only takes a few gigs to be successful. If this is not true but you need to work hard, wait and be patient and you will get where you want to be.
