waves.
Sometimes life is like a wave with its ups and downs.1
You are catching a wave, making progress, and finally taking those small steps—working on your New Year's resolution and developing those small habits just like that new self-help book suggested.
This is the rise, the process of becoming a better version of yourself. You can be proud.
But then something happens, a simple slip, followed by another, and somehow you need to start from the beginning or find it even harder than before.
Now you need to climb back on the board.
The good thing is that now you can remember where you slipped and avoid making the same mistake, right?
Or at least, that’s how it is for me.↩
