“If you’re going through hell, keep going.”

“The ability to delay gratification is a learned skill. It is the difference between the successful and the unsuccessful.”

“You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.”

You won’t beat resistance every time, and that’s okay. Aim for small progress over time instead of perfect results.

6. Take Small Wins

“The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.”

“Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.”

“Discipline is choosing between what you want now and what you want most.”

The tasks you avoid the most are probably the ones that will help you grow. Use that feeling of resistance as a clue to what’s important.

2. Follow the Discomfort

Success often requires pushing through tough or uncomfortable moments. There’s no easy way around it.

3. Get Comfortable with Discomfort

Social media, games, and other quick fixes give instant rewards that make real work feel boring. Cut back on these so work feels satisfying again.

4. Avoid Quick Pleasures

Make it easy to start work by removing distractions around you. A simpler environment helps you stay focused.

7. Set Up for Success

What you watch, read, and listen to fills your mind. Surround yourself with content that supports your goals, and work will feel more natural.

5. Watch What You Consume

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.”
