Almost

Monday, April 28
We’ve all been there.
You almost went to the gym.
You almost had the hard conversation.
You almost stuck to the routine.
You almost took the next step.
You almost applied for the job.
You almost spoke up in the meeting.
But here’s the thing: Almost gets you nothing.
It’s a dangerous place to live because it feels like progress.
It feels like you’re close.
It feels like you’re in the game.
It feels like you’re doing the work.
But you’re not. You are only building frustration and regret.
The more time you spend in almost, the more you lose confidence in yourself.
You know what you need to do, but you’re not doing it.
And that gap is where doubt creeps in.
So forget almost. Do the work. Finish the job.
Keep chopping wood. 🪵🪓
