10 years for 2-3 minutes?
by i. n. vested 
 
10 years for 2-3 minutes?
he trained to win the gold

after a few minutes those bright lights began to dim

·       instead of focusing on the outcome goal (the weight loss, the gold medal, the wedding day, etc.), appreciate the process.

·       focus on the small day-to-day wins that show your investment in yourself (your health, your well-being, your ease of mind).
 
athletes, politicians, and future brides sometimes focus on the big party/win instead of appreciating the short-term moment processes.

* inspired by an orion taraban video in which he spoke of an olympic gold medal winner who worked for over a decade to realize that the few minutes of glory wasn’t worth all he’d given-up in the process.
 
* in marriage, the big party/win comes before the decades of work that (more often than not) results in devastating, irreparable loss.
