THE JOURNEY IS NEVER PERFECT. It's uncomfortable, it's challenging and it takes strong mental power, your old self will find ways to bring you back to square one. People will disagree with your vision and approach. Your circle may become smaller. You'll fail more than you ever have. Plans won't go ahead. You'll feel disappointed and at times wonder if it's ever going to happen.

But, there is no better feeling than a sense of accomplishment. Proving to yourself (more than anyone else) that you can do it; that you HAVE done it. Reaching a milestone that was never intended for people like you. Getting that sense of euphoria as you reach the other side. Watching your dreams turn into reality. Living a better life. Feeling healthier. Waking up happy. Paving the way. Setting new standards. Becoming the highest version of you.

Hard times suck... but good times can last longer if you promise to do you proud.
