Summary

Overnight success is a myth — and here’s why. It’s easy to compare yourself to what you see on social media, but the truth is that our growth is never a straight line. Today, I share how you can stay in the game mentally even when you aren’t seeing the results you want. I’ll reveal the benefits to playing the long game and the surprising benefits of delayed gratification versus immediate gratification. I also dive into ways to build your certainty muscle during slow seasons, rewire anxious thought patterns, and create small wins that lead up to the bigger ones. Even your slowest season can be the key to your next breakthrough!
