Final Thoughts 

We all struggle to trust the process because of our inclination toward linear thinking. 

In other words, we believe we are entitled to steady benefits in exchange for our steady investment of time and effort. 

That’s not the case. 

The truth is that life never takes a straight line. 

It’s okay; it’s expected to think linearly. We’re hardwired that way. 

But there are some things we can do to combat this. 

One of the easiest ways to motivate yourself is to constantly remind yourself that everyone who has achieved anything worthwhile started precisely where you are now.

And we can use their quotes to fuel our drive!
