Everyone wants overnight success.
No one wants a 10-year plan.
Too often, we compare someone’s Chapter 15 to our Chapter 1.
We see the wins. The success. The followers.
And we forget that what looks like an “overnight success” probably took 10+ years.
If you're just getting started, it’s easy to feel behind.
But slow steps are still steps. And progress doesn’t need to be flashy to be powerful.
Let go of the pressure to “arrive”.
Stop:
1/ Comparing your timeline to others
2/ Measuring yourself by external milestones
3/ Believing speed equals success
4/ Trying to skip foundational work
5/ Doubting your own pace
Instead:
1/ Celebrate small wins
2/ Focus on one step at a time
3/ Keep a progress journal
4/ Prioritise consistency over intensity
5/ Track how far you’ve come - not how far is left
Success isn’t a staircase you leap up.
It’s a ramp you build - one small, solid step at a time.
⤵️ What’s one thing you’re proud you stuck with - no matter how long it took?
♻️ Repost this to remind someone you know not to rush their growth.
