Work is work, do what you can to make it through another day. That’s what most of us do, we do what we can to just get by for one more day. The fatigue stays, it never really heals. Always lingers. You know that you’re going to be stuck doing this for some time so suck it up. At least you have good things to be grateful for. Utilize all that you have at your disposal, become a machine for productivity. At least give it a shot, see what comes out of it if you stick to it for 3 months. You’ve already seen the drastic benefits of daily practices. How the rewards reaped from it are given much much later, but they are better than you could have imagined. So keep adding to your daily task. Fill up your day with demands that never end. You’re already in misery working here, might as well use it as a training camp.
Somewhere along the line, I stopped waiting for things to get easier. I realized the heaviness doesn’t leave—it just changes shape. So now I lean into it. Not because I enjoy the grind, but because I know what comes from it. Every repetition, every demand, it all stacks into something real. I’m not chasing ease anymore—I’m building stamina for something bigger than comfort.
The trick is turning the misery into momentum. Treating the weight of the day like a sparring partner instead of a prison. If I’m going to be tired anyway, let it be from overreaching—stretching into something worthwhile. Let this be my proving ground. I’ve already seen what happens when I commit daily. The returns don’t show up when I want, but when they do, they’re undeniable.
So I’ll keep stacking the bricks. Keep working when I’m tired, when I don’t want to, when the excuses try to feel valid. Let this job become a forge. If I’m stuck in the fire, then I might as well be molded by it. Because one day I’ll look back and realize that this version of me—beaten down, exhausted, relentless—was the one who built the future I’ll finally get to enjoy.
