Easy Success? Embracing the Challenges and Finding Ease (Myths of Momentum Part II)

Don't quit just because it's not easy.

Writing is painful.

Folding laundry is painful (or at least no fun).

Running a business is stressful. No matter how awesome the people who work with you are, there are stressful moments.

We often believe that if it's meant to be, it will be easy.

Maybe success will come easy, and that would be a sign that we're on the right path...

So if success isn't forthcoming, we doubt our decisions and end up quitting... often right before our efforts pay off.


This is part of the Myths of Momentum series, where we’re looking at what we’ve been told success should look and feel like. We often imagine that success should come easy, happen quickly, and be fun.
