It took me seven years to get on the path to success, let alone another like eight to become qualified to be a decent human being. How does one overcome more difficult obstacles to gain motivation? Is it just do it? No. The way that you overcome a difficult obstacle is by making tiny, tiny deposits that are going to build up your motivational bank. And then they get to the point they're like, oh, look at all this motivation i have. That's like stacking. It's a 50 % tax on every deposit that you make.
