Don’t Let the Process Punk You Out of the Promise

This weekend I shared one of my favorite quotes with someone I was encouraging: “Don’t let the process punk you out of the promise.”

That gap between who you are right now and what destiny has for you can break you if you let it.

OR at the very least it will have you settle for JUST good enough.

The reality is, most significant things in life you have to grow into.

And it’s hard when you plant your little seed of faith and hope it was already full bloom.

But life doesn’t typically work like that.

Looking back, my half marathon training reinforced that for me, because even at my big age, it’s easy to forget.

There’s no jumping from running 1 mile to running 13 miles overnight.

There’s a plan; you stick to it, and no matter what happens, you stick to the plan, or you get back to the plan.

Life is going to throw so many things at you that you don’t have control over…

But the one thing you do have control over is doing THE NEXT RIGHT THING.

It can feed your ego to get something fast, before you’ve really put in the work…

Becoming THE PERSON is the REAL FLEX though!

So if life takes something from you, you’re the person who can go get it back.

And more importantly, you know who you are.

Don’t despise growing in the gap…the process is where greatness is cooked.
