I know, silly question.
Of course we all know how to make ice.
But what about melting it?
Let’s picture this.
Imagine you have an ice cube sitting on the table in front of you.
The room is cold and you can see your breath.
It’s currently 25 degrees…
Ever so slowly the room begins to heat up.
26 degrees…
27 degrees…
28, 29, 30, 31…
Still nothing.
Then, 32 degrees.
The ice begins to melt.
A one-degree shift, not a noticeable difference, seemingly no difference, but it unlocked a huge change.
We often get frustrated with our results, but what we often don’t realize is sometimes we’re heating up the room.
Breakthrough moments are often the result of many previous actions which build up the potential required to unleash major change.
We need to stick through it, stay with it long enough to build up those habits before we see tangible results.
If you find yourself struggling it’s often because you haven’t yet crossed that bridge of potential…you might be at 31 degrees.
When you finally breakthrough, you and those around you, will think of it as overnight success, but we need to know that it was all the work we did leading up to it.
It doesn’t matter if we’re talking a fitness result, a financial result, a business result, a growth in your career, or a breakthrough in a relationship.
All big things come from small beginnings.
Keep showing up, building those habits, and stacking those wins.
1% Better.
Dedicated To Your Success,
