Do Not Trade

Don’t trade away your happiness now to earn money in hopes that if you make enough you’ll be able to buy it back later.

You can’t.

Start Counting When It Starts Hurting

I don’t count my sit-ups. I only start counting when it starts hurting. When I feel pain, that’s when I start counting, because that’s when it really counts.

Every single day

You don’t set out to build a wall. You don’t say, “I’m going to build the biggest, baddest, greatest wall that’s ever been built.” You don’t start there. You say, “I’m going to lay this stone as perfectly as a stone can be laid.” You do that every single day. And soon you will have a wall.
