  SPEAKER_00: Today I'm taking a break from writing tips or teaching material because I want to share something really important with you.
• 0:15
  SPEAKER_00: There's a saying that is attributed to Plato, and the saying is be kind, for everyone is fighting a hard battle.
• 0:23
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm pretty confident that no matter who you are or where you are right now, you're going through something in your life.
• 0:30
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe you're discouraged or you're thinking about quitting altogether.
• 0:34
  SPEAKER_00: And if so, you need to know this.
• 0:37
  SPEAKER_00: I believe in you.
• 0:39
  SPEAKER_00: I really do.

  SPEAKER_00: Now, why you ask?
• 0:43
  SPEAKER_00: Why can't you believe in me?
• 0:45
  SPEAKER_00: And if you're asking that question, let me give you three simple reasons why I believe in you.
• 0:51
  SPEAKER_00: Number one, the fact that you're listening to this podcast right now tells me that you're still in the fight.
• 0:56
  SPEAKER_00: You want to show up and you want to learn and you want to grow.
• 1:00
  SPEAKER_00: You might be tired, but you're here listening to this, and that's a really, really great sign.
• 1:07
  SPEAKER_00: Number two, I believe in you because you've done hard things before.
• 1:11
  SPEAKER_00: Think of all the stuff you've been through in your life.
• 1:14
  SPEAKER_00: Whatever things you're facing right now, you're gonna pull through.
• 1:18
  SPEAKER_00: You wouldn't be here if you weren't tough.
• 1:21
  SPEAKER_00: And number three, I believe in you because you still have work to do.
• 1:25
  SPEAKER_00: There's that project or that book that you've been thinking about for quite a while now, but you haven't started it yet.
• 1:31
  SPEAKER_00: Or maybe if you have started it, you haven't really tried to finish it or put any forward momentum on it.
• 1:37
  SPEAKER_00: But you're thinking about it quite a bit, which means that you're not done yet.
• 1:43
  SPEAKER_00: Well, my friend, today is not the day you're gonna quit.
• 1:47
  SPEAKER_00: If you're tired and depleted, I recommend a good nap, drinking some water, maybe having some protein, and taking a good walk.
• 1:55
  SPEAKER_00: All of those things will really help.
• 1:57
  SPEAKER_00: The bottom line here is that you've got this.
