Somewhere along the line we learn that work has to be hard. That we have to struggle and exhaust ourselves in order to get anywhere.
And when we have that belief it makes working, hard to do, hard to get excited about, and hard to accomplish.
But work doesn’t have to be hard.
Just for today, let your work be easy.
Let go of the notion it has to be hard and look for ways that it can be simple.
Just be consistent, that’s what matters. The time spent working toward something will pass either way, make sure you have something to show for it.
Always celebrate the payoff you get from consistently showing up, putting yourself on the hook and using your time well. Notice the progress you’ve made along the way so you don’t burn out.
