When we distract from our path towards goal, and struggle to come back, do we start over? I don’t think so, for all the work that has been done before distraction still remains. But sine many times we believe ‘omg, i have to start over’, ‘its all for nothing’ etc, the believe and thought kinda make it somewhat true. You see, believe and thoughts are so powerful that if you keep believing you can’t, you actually can’t! Somehow this time, the journey toward my goal is relatively persistent, I do get out of the way for few days, but I don’t lose hope, and I firmly believe that I can….so resuming from where you started doesn’t invalidate everything you did and you are starting new, it means, you took a break, now you will resume your journey towards your goal.
Its Never Late To Start Over
