If you can’t hold on … hold on.
If you think you can’t make it one more second, one more rep, one more moment … yes, you can.
If you’re sure that this next movement, this next round, this next workout will kill you … it won’t.
Life is full of exaggerations. We are full of exaggerations. Everything is so bad, so tough, so horrible … but that is only our minds making it so. I bet we all (each one of us) are far stronger than we ever realize — physically, mentally, spiritually.
The tank really isn’t empty. You’re just being weak. Figure out what you need to do to get strong again: maybe it’s breaths, or water, or rest, or food you need. But it’s something. Figure it out and get back to work. Life does not improve unless you improve.
