Little sleep here now
You’re already awake though
Might as well get on with it
Think about what it would do
To be all done with this
To not have to worry about it
You’re going to have to do it anyway
There’s no going around it
It’ll suck to do later
It’s going to suck now
Either way it sucks
Might as well just get it done now
You will do it I know you
Once you write it you mean it
You’re ready to go now
You’re eager to be done with it
This is what you’ve turned into
Someone that means what they say
That does what they tell themselves to do.
There’s no avoiding the drag of tired eyes and the pulse of a restless mind. You feel the weight of exhaustion pulling at your shoulders, but you’ve already cracked the seal on the day. You’re awake now—so be awake with purpose. Let the desire to be done pull you forward. That future moment where the burden is lifted? Chase that. Let it be the gravity that moves your feet when motivation can’t.
The task won’t change. The only thing that shifts is when you decide to face it. Delay doesn’t spare you pain—it just repackages it for later. You’ve done this dance enough to know that putting things off only adds layers to the ache. So strip it down. Cut straight through. You’re not doing this because it feels good, you’re doing it because it’s what has to be done. And there’s power in that kind of clarity.
Look at how far you’ve come. You don’t speak empty promises anymore. When you write it, it happens. When you say it, you mean it. You’ve trained yourself to show up through resistance, to act in alignment with your intentions. That’s not a small thing. That’s transformation. The version of you that once hesitated is gone. What’s left is someone who follows through—not because it’s easy, but because it’s necessary.
