It's funny, but many spend energy on proving to everyone around how cool they are, forgetting that the main enemy lives right inside. Woke up in the morning? Victory. Got out of bed, and didn't scroll through social networks for another two hours? Victory. Decided to eat a salad instead of pizza? Victory. You see, thousands of small battles around us every day — and they all really count.
The humor is that sometimes we make an epic drama out of the internal struggle, and then we are surprised that victories on the external front come slowly. But if you start with something simple — with yourself — it turns out that everything else is much easier.
So next time you think "it's impossible", just remember: your biggest rival is yourself. Beat him, and you're a champion.
