Sometimes we get stuck in this cycle of, like, burst of motivation followed by a period of wallowing in our despair. And the problem is that even when we have the burst of ation, we don't reinforce that in any way, shape or form. Part of getting rid of the despair is acknowledging when you do have some wind, no matter how small,. and say, you know what? Good job bro, good job girl. You did it. That's ok. It may not be enough, but like, at least to day i can be proud of what i accomplish.
