Going the distance

While I would never have compared writing a blog with a marathon, I feel like a real winner today!

Why? I've completed "that" blog!

The one that takes weeks of research. The one where the links all fall down before you learn some coding. The one that keeps you up at night!

I read somewhere that this is hard work, and that obstacles are sure to arize. I took that for granted. I was told that we need to simply see obstacles as humps in the road, and keep going.

Now, for the first time though, I know what they meant.

Obstacles are those things that make you think "maybe this isn't for me".

And then, when you get over yourself, keep going, finish... Win, you realize the reward of satisfaction at doing something well.

Bring on the next one.

I can do this.

And if I can, so can you.
