What if This Thing Might Be Easier than I think?

When I want to start something new I usually assume it’s going to be hard.

Heavy.

Complicated.

I tell myself it will take all my strength just to begin.

But what if I change my outlook? What if I believe it might actually be easier? Not because I’m denying reality, but because I’m choosing perspective.

Sometimes the weight is in my head, not in the task.

Sometimes the first step is lighter than I make it out to be.

Marcus Aurelius: “If it is endurable, then endure it. Stop complaining.”
