Embrace the Struggle

The moment right before you break through is when it hurts the most. That's not a coincidence.

That's the test. Every person who ever achieved something worth having wanted to quit right before

they made it. The difference between them and everyone else wasn't talent or luck.

It was refusing to stop when stopping made the most sense. Your brain will lie to you.

It will tell you this is too hard, that you're not built for this, that maybe you should

try something easier. But here's the truth. You're closer than you think. The struggle you're

feeling right now is proof you're growing, not proof you're failing.

Diamonds form under pressure. Muscles tear before they build. You don't get strong
