 There have been many many times in life where I simply wasn’t feeling it.

Where I didn’t feel like honoring my commitments to others or to myself. 

I simply just showed up and did shit anyway. 

I did things I didn’t want to do. At times I didn’t want to do them. For small amounts of money. 

I did things that were painful or difficult or unpleasant and I did them without complaint. 

I did these things because I knew they were necessary to get the results I was after. 

Most people are not willing to do hard things and so most people get the same results.
