🏆 Mastery

When learning any skill, the most important thing to realize is that it takes time and that it's difficult for all of us. It's quite rare to find anything easy from the get go.

Brain’s natural response to difficulty and stress is to give up and rationalize with "maybe this isn’t for me" and "others progress faster than me" but neither of those are really true.

Those that succeed are the ones that actively ignore their own brain's persistent attempts to provide comfort in failure.
