The Middle Is Not Nowhere: What to Do When Progress Feels Like Failure | 221

I was halfway through building the Faithful Finisher Diagnostic when I caught myself saying, “I’ve gotten nowhere.” Except I hadn’t. I was in the middle. 

And the middle is dangerous because all you can see is what still isn’t finished. 

In this episode, we talk about how to stop confusing unfinished with failure, read the trail accurately, and find the next faithful marker when the summit still feels far away. Because sometimes the clearest evidence that the work “isn’t working” is simply that you haven’t finished it yet.
