I already did it for this long.
I made it past wall after wall.
It’s just one more day of this.
It’s just one more wall to overcome.
Nobody can stop you but you.
Decide right now that you will.
Don’t allow any other thought in your mind.
Only I can, and I will.
The rest, just let them float on by.
Don’t grab a hold of them.
Let them get taken away by time.
Eventually, you’ll be too far in to quit.
The day will already be started.
So think about what it is you want,
why you want it, and what you need to do.
This is just another day of doing what you need.
It’s not what you want, I know.
It’s for what you want though.
I can already hear the excuses forming in the back of my mind. They come quietly, like whispers, trying to make me doubt the simplicity of it all. But I’ve learned their game. They only have as much power as I give them. Today, they get nothing. Not a single moment of attention.
I’ve come too far to let hesitation take root now. I’ve climbed too many walls to question whether this one can be overcome. What’s a single wall compared to the mountain I’ve already scaled? What’s a single push compared to the thousands I’ve endured? It’s nothing. It’s just noise. And I refuse to let noise drown out my purpose.
I remind myself that this is for something greater than the discomfort I feel now. The ache, the effort, the discipline—it’s all part of a bigger picture. Every movement I make today is another brick laid in the foundation of who I’m building myself to be. These small, daily battles are what define me. Not the grand gestures or the fleeting moments of glory, but the grind, the persistence, the quiet refusal to give in.
So I tell myself again: just one more day. Just one more wall. And when that wall is behind me, I’ll find another. Because this is who I am now. I don’t stop. I don’t quit. I don’t falter.
This is not for what I want in the moment. This is for what I’ve always wanted—to prove to myself that I can. To show myself that I am worthy of the dreams I’ve set. And as the day begins, I carry this thought with me: I’ve already made it this far. I will not stop now.
