Do it for your future self

“Make Your Future Self Smile” Designed by Carmellita in Designer and Canva

Motivation is momentary, but discipline and purpose keep you going when you’re demotivated. When I feel stuck, I shift my focus from my feelings to the commitments I’ve made.

Yes, rest when you’re demotivated, but don’t quit. Rest is restoration. You need rest to rejuvenate.

Inspiration doesn’t fall out of the sky. Inspiration follows effort.

And progress may not be visible until consistency compounds over time. Trust that the fire will return. Until it rekindles, keep going. Your future self will thank you.

Fam, I’m curious. What can you do today to make your future self smile?
