7 Tips to Make It Through the Messy Middle

Anyone who has ever tried to do something outside their comfort cave has surely been to the Messy Middle -- that uncomfortable place in your goal work where the excitement of new beginnings has worn off and success is not yet in sight.

You know, that place where the work becomes work.

The Messy Middle is where dreams and goals go to die.

And often, they do.

When the discomfort of doing hard things becomes too much, it is very tempting to throw in the towel and go back to the comfortable life you had before you ever started working on your goal.

But throwing in the towel and quitting is a choice. It is something completely in your control.
