You feel stuck cuz you’re not pacing yourself in life. A huge problem I noticed with people is they will get motivated and do a short burst of work. Then slack off for weeks at a time. This is quite possibly the worst way to move about life. What you need to develop is a pace you know you can work at. It does not matter how fast the pace is, but the key part is that you maintain it.

See look at life like a marathon. You gotta be able to keep a work rate that is sustainable for the race. If you spend all your energy sprinting, you’ll never get as far as the man whose willing to embrace the nonstop grind. This is why your pace is important.

The pace builds endurance. As the endurance grows, you can pick up your pace. And now it’s manageable because you built yourself to the point. Eventually, you’ll be able to keep pace with the sprinters and still lap them when there take a second to breathe.

Life is a long game if you play it right. There is never a point at which you need to speed through it. That typically leads to an early ending.

By running a pace you can maintain. You can optimize your thinking and movement. If you’re always speeding at full clip, you can think. If you sit around thinking always you can’t see if your plans have practical use in reality. This is why the pace is important you want to be efficient with every step. Wasted motion has an opportunity cost, that compounds over time if you don’t head in the right direction.

To prevent the devastation of moving fast take your time and stay steady.

The man who is economical and practical always wins in the long run.
