We don’t notice when progress is happening.
We only notice when progress has happened.
Most of progress is spent feeling that we’re trudging along, not getting anywhere and not making progress.
It’s why it’s so hard to keep at it.
And it’s why we shouldn’t always trust our thoughts.
The real challenge is to keep plugging away even when your mind is telling you you’re not getting anywhere, that you’re wasting your time, that you’re fooling yourself.
Progress happens when you ignore that voice and continue to plug away.
