If you look at the reasons why so many people give up, the answer is usually some variation of “it got hard.”

And I get it. Life gets hard, schedules get busy, and things happen - no one is here to argue otherwise. However, it’s a universal truth that strength is built through difficulties. Muscles grow after you challenge them. Diamonds form under pressure. We all know the cliches, but that doesn’t change the reality that difficulties are essential to rise.

You can’t avoid them.
You can’t erase them.
You can only move through them.

Instead of shrinking from difficulties, challenge yourself to face them head-on this week. Identify where you’re struggling, create a plan of action, and move forward.

Great things are waiting for you on the other side.


1. Failure is inevitable. The sooner you accept that, and move anyway, the sooner you’ll knock it out of the park.

@drgurner: One thing I find with almost every ultra successful person?   They've had big swings that didn't work out. It's just not where their story ends.  People who refuse to allow anything to take them out, are never remembered for their failures, but their wins.  Take Big Swings.

2. Feeling stagnant? The solution is the same: keep going.

@mabintou: Before you level up you will probably feel stagnant. Each chapter of your life has some kind of “rock bottom” but thankfully the only way is up from there.

3. You probably know what you need to do. Are you going to let yourself take the leap?

@IAmAaronWill: That move you’re scared to make might just be the one that changes everything.

4. Create your own rules, then smash through them again and again.

@drgurner: Most people live by "imaginary rules” that restrict: - How much they believe they can make - What they try for - What rooms they belong in  They believe these like they're real.  So much behavior is dictated by imaginary rules- It benefits you greatly not to follow them.

5. Today’s actions shape tomorrow’s outcomes. Make your future self proud.

@austin_rief: Thought of the day:  Your 85 year old self would probably give anything to be doing what you’re doing today.

6. If you want to tap into your Midas Touch, you’ve got to be your first true believer.

@ABetterJones: Remember: Belief comes BEFORE ability.   It's the foundation of every story of outrageous success.   Someone believes they CAN do it, long before they have the evidence to prove it.

One of the best decisions I made in 2022 was signing up for a yearly subscription of @drgurner’s newsletter. Monday mornings instantly upgraded.
