If you keep quitting things at the same point, the point is worth studying. That’s where your real lesson lives.

STILLNESS

WHAT THIS MEANS

Quitting several different things at the same stage says the stage matters more than the activities. Somewhere around week three, or the first time you are visibly bad in front of people, something consistent happens. That consistent thing is the actual obstacle, and it will be waiting in the next activity too.

Work out where your edge sits by reviewing three things you dropped. Then plan to go one week past that mark in whatever you are doing now. Getting past it once teaches you more than a new hobby will.
