Motivation for the Mid-Way Point
When you find yourself in the middle of a big, scary forest, tired and emotionally spent, you have the choice to run back or finish the journey.
Both options seem hard.
If you would have known that the path was this treacherous, you might not have started it in the first place.
Thank goodness for naivete.
Take a break. Sit down. Have a snack. Take a nap.
Pace yourself until you catch a second wind.
The Universe is conspiring to help you. It will work out.
