Hey guys, welcome to a new pep talk on your Sunday to get you going before you start the week.

And this one's a little bit of a kick in the butt, but like a gentle kick in the butt.

Let's have a real moment today.

You've been thinking about quitting, haven't you?

And not because the dream isn't worth it.

You've been thinking about quitting because it's taking too long. You've been thinking about quitting because it's harder than you expected it to be. Or you've been thinking about quitting because you're not seeing

the results you thought that you would see by now. And that's fair. Okay? It's human to get tired.

It's human to doubt. But before you go rewriting the plan and scrapping the goal or deciding that this just isn't meant to be for you,

let me give you this gentle reminder.

You don't need a new plan.

You need more grit.

Now look, I am not saying that we should never pivot.

I am not saying to ignore wisdom or signs or strategy.

What I am saying is don't confuse discomfort with misalignment.

Sometimes it's not a sign to stop. It's a sign to dig in. Because here's the

truth. Most goals aren't lost because of bad plans. They're lost because we quit too early.

One of my favorite quotes says,

we are kept from our goal, not by obstacles,

but by a clear path to a lesser goal.

Meaning when people get discouraged,

they will find a goal that is not as much fun, that is not as

exciting, that is not actually taking them where they want to go, but it's a goal they can achieve.
