I’ve seen it time and time again in my own dang life…

…there’ll be a stretch where everything feels just okay.

Not bad or broken.

But definitely not progressing. Some days are like I’m moving through wet cement.

I’m mostly talking about fitness and bodybuilding, but this also applies to …business & relationships.

At times it's super frustratting but then the brutal truth hits as it always does.

‘Okay’ isn’t the goal.

‘Just fine’ isn’t why you and I started this journey.

That moment of honesty usually gets me rolling…staying on that ‘just okay’ path for another 3, 6, or 12 months…

…that feels like regret building before it even happens.

That’s our cue. That’s when things shift.

next is one single day of action.

• One day of planning.
• One day of connecting with people I haven't talked to in a while.
• One day of executing on something I’ve only been thinking about.
• One day with an expert, coach or consultant…or simply a day of studying.
• One day of getting back to the basics.
•  

That’s all it takes.

One day of momentum creates the spark…then two, then three.

Suddenly, the same routine that felt like a grind becomes an exciting string of habits again.

Because now it’s progress, not just motion.

I used to dread these phases, but now I see them differently.

They’re not setbacks.

They’re launchpads.

If you’re in that ‘stuck’ place right now, don’t wait for motivation to show up.

Choose action.

Even if it's just for today.
