Now you must

Stop telling yourself why you cannot do it and start reminding yourself why you must. When you have a strong enough reason why, you'll get it done.

It can be all too easy to come up with excuses. And it can be all too easy to let those excuses stop you in your tracks.

Yet you can also very easily let go of those excuses. Though they may sound impressive, they are no longer valid for you.

Because as of now, you have chosen to move forward. As of this moment, you have reconnected with your purpose and you're clear about why you must.

Effort, as difficult as it may be, is a joy when there's a good, solid, meaningful reason behind it. On this very day, you can experience that joy.

Get up, get going, and thoroughly enjoy the process of achievement. Remember why you must, and get it done.
