Become the variable your circumstances failed to account for.

Circumstances are built on averages. Systems, competitors, and predictions all assume a typical amount of effort, a typical willingness to endure, a typical point at which someone gives up. None of those assumptions are laws. The person who exceeds them is not breaking a rule, they are simply falling outside the model that was used to forecast them, and forecasts have no power to hold you to their estimates.

Identify the prediction currently being made about your situation and what it assumes. Then decide which single assumption you are going to violate this year. Choose the one you can actually control.
