The Middle
When many start a new relationship, hobby, business, job, etc., they talk about two things on social media:
The Beginning and The End.
They talk about their excitement, support, and optimism in the beginning.
They talk about their achievement, learning, and relief at the end.
One thing they don’t talk about?
The Middle.
In reality, Few even make it to and through the middle.
That’s because the middle is, well, messy.
It’s a messy mix of mistakes, sacrifice, risk, doubt, lack of sleep, loss of control…
It’s downright painful.
The middle is the definition of discomfort, but if you have the discipline to drive to and through it…
The Middle is magic.
It’s where you grow.
Sure, this growth comes with pain. That’s why they’re called growing pains.
I’m sending you this short note because I feel like you’re in the middle.
I want you to know that I’m in the middle, too…
And, today, you and me are going to do what The Few do.
We will embrace our discomfort and grow through our pain.
Remember The Middle doesn’t last forever… but our growth does.
Stay on the hunt!
