Spirit of Momentum

Dear friend,

Your goals will feel very distant at this moment because you haven't built up the small habits and skills to create momentum. As you progress down this path, things that seem difficult today will become the new norm. You underestimate your own ability to adapt and learn.

You knew this would be difficult when you set out on this journey, but remember that you decided on this path because it would be worth the struggle. It's about progress and not about perfection, you will stumble through this while you learn how to maintain balance.

At the present moment, it will be difficult to see the ripple effects of the work you do but there will come a time where you will be grateful for having put in the hours. Approach all your problems with a focus on the process and trust that the results will come in the future.

Exercise is a good example of how things take time; if you learn proper form, focus and eat properly, the ripple effects down the road are great. However, you won't see the results of that work instantly. Things take time, so don't fret over your day to day struggles.

Most importantly, you have to remember that you are the product. Your external achievements won't be as crucial as the person you are becoming. No amount of accolades or money will be as valuable as the growth you will have as a human being. The external world can change overnight but no one can change your internal realm without your consent.

Your letters to me have been so focused on frustrations with the external world, shift your focus to your internal world. Accept your reality for what it is and see the challenges in front of you as an opportunity for growth.

- Love, JeyRam
