It’s been a tough few weeks, and you’re thinking about jacking it in.

I don’t blame you. You’re probably worried, knackered and housing a family of obese moths in your wallet.

Why the hell do you keep going?

Is it knowing that going back to employment will never scratch the itch to build something of your own?

Is it because you’re past the point of no return?

Is it because you have a mission? 👈 Highly advised

Persistence is a mindset grounded in the belief that it will all work out. And that’s a huge weight to carry when it gets tough.

But mindset will only get you so far. There are two things you need to get through:

  • Experiences
  • Somebody who gets it, gets you, and can be trusted.

Experiences allow us to evolve, mostly through the mistakes we will inevitably make. Which is why we need that special somebody to help us through.

Mission is the ground both of those stand on. Belief that it will all work out is fragile, but knowing why it has to isn’t.
