#266 When you stop worrying, you know

Today, you’ll force yourself to chase fulfilment, not instant pleasure.

Because when you start getting the taste what’s on the other side of your avoidance…

Soon enough you won’t need brute force anymore.

Before it can be about good writing, it must be about consistent writing.

Before it can be about running PRs, it must be about running consistently.

Before it can be about , it must be about being in that yoga pose in the first place.

Before it can be about fulfilment, it must be about doing something that fulfills you in the first place.

Before it can be about the content, it must be about the consistency.

Why do you love writing, despite the fact that the act of writing is often a drag?

Why do you love running, despite the fact that the act of going for a run is often a chore?

Why do you love learning languages, despite the fact that the act of practicing is often riddled with frustration?

Why do you love it so much?

And wouldn’t it feel good to remind yourself of that love every day… so you make sure the love is there to stay?

Not taking action on your dreams won’t get you anywhere.

But taking too much action will burn you out – and won’t get you anywhere either.

In an ideal world:

• You underdo it when you feel super excited (to avoid burnout)
• You overdo it when you feel defeated (to make sure you stay on track)
