"Resist & Persist."
Personal growth is not easy.
Making major changes to your lifestyle is a process.
Working hard to achieve your goals is a journey.
Positive results and outcomes do not happen over night.
Maintaining a lifestyle of continual growth is a life-long journey.
A process.
To have a chance at sustaining this way of life, you must be able to do two things well.
You must be able to resist and persist.
To resist the urge to lose momentum or stop.
To fall back on old ways and bad habits.
Because you don't cannot see a material-improvement.
To resist the urge to succumb to instances of instant gratification.
To forget the reason why you started down this path.
To prioritise short-term gain.
To persist, no matter what challenges are thrown in front of you.
No matter what the outcome.
No matter what you produce or don't.
No matter what people say.
No matter how long it will take.
If your personal growth and self-mastery is important to you, trust in the process.
Resist and persist.
Strive to live, live to strive.
