Relentlessness becomes strength when it learns precision.

Persistence without precision is just repeated effort, and repeated effort at the wrong point can be sustained indefinitely without producing anything. What turns relentlessness into real strength is knowing where to keep applying it, so that each repetition lands on the same useful spot rather than being scattered across whatever seemed pressing.

If you have been working hard without much movement, spend a session on aim rather than effort. Identify the one thing that would matter most if you kept at it for six months. Then bring your persistence back and put all of it there.
