Patient Progress
You can try to rush things but that can cause tension in the universe and you may find faster is slower.
Be patient. Organise your time and leave plenty for the challenges that other people, machinery, technology or nature may throw at you.
If your mind is calm and the route is well planned, with ample contingency time, the challenges will be weathered without a storm.
Make patient and persistent progress and you will win.

Think. Dream. Visualise.
Get going on this first step. Ignore your life today, as it is, and start noting down your absolute ideal life.
Don’t try to figure out the how, just focus on the what. What would your ideal life, in all aspects, look like?
Get as broad and detailed as possible. Paint a magnificent picture. Do no hold back.

You’ll Get Through
Resilience is a critical attribute or skill to have. Being able to survive and thrive, despite challenges and difficult times, is such an important mindset to develop to a high degree.
Life isn’t always fair and neither does it go to plan every day. Sometimes you struggle for days, weeks or months on end. You need to be able to navigate the ups and downs of life without losing overall enthusiasm and discipline to carry on without missing a beat.
Learn how to bounce back, keep going, build a vision, and not let things hold you down and trap you there for weeks, months or years.
Life’s short. You’ll get through anything you train your brain to get through, persevere and move forward stridently.
The sooner you can learn to bounce back quickly, the more incredible your life will be.

Plan! Plan! Plan!
No matter what you do, you should have a plan. A written plan is even better. It’s great to have thought things through a little and have written down those key points or elements.
This is great visualisation process and prepares you for speed bumps and other challenges you might encounter.
See the vision. Adjust as necessary.

Practice Detail
Big picture and generalisations have their purpose and place. However, you need to focus on the nitty gritty, nuts and bolts and detailed bits in order to finish a job well.
Make a list of all the steps you can possibly think of to finish a project from this point. Then crack on and get these steps completed.

Pain Is Temporary
Remember this always. Pain is temporary. History is forever. DNA is forever. Life is going to have its ups and downs. Don’t get locked in on the downs. These too shall pass.
Hold on to great memories. Let painful ones go. You don’t need to drag those around with you. They will weigh you down and you will be less light, attractive and free.
Focus on great memories. You’ll smile more.
Let the pain drift away. You do not need to cherish it and bathe in it like a masochist. Set your soul free.

Results Without Sacrifice?
Rarely would this happen.
If you want to be great at a sport, you will need to sacrifice dating time, drinking time, drifting time and put a lot of training in. Same with education, work, relationships, etc.
You’ll need to sacrifice time, comfort and ease for involvement, hard days and tough work.
It will be worth it in the end. But you have to believe it and live it now.
