Stop Stopping
Apr 23, 2025We've worked with head coaches.
First-round draft picks.
Olympic medalists.
Fortune 100 CEOs and their teams.
NYT bestselling authors.
Founders who exited to millions.
Sounds flashy.
Maybe it is.
But here’s the truth:
They’re just humans.
Humans who did the one thing most people won’t.
They refused to stop.
In failure.
With critics.
On the good days.
And on the ones where everything in them wanted to quit.
They refused to stop.
When they didn’t win the starting job. When the launch bombed. When the market dipped. When no one was watching. They refused to stop.
When teammates checked out. When the kids went to bed. When their vision felt blurry. They refused to stop.
That’s the difference.
Not talent.
Not luck.
Not being better connected.
They just didn’t stop.
And while the world doesn’t always bend to the flashy—or the gifted, or the loudest in the room—It tends to lean toward those who stay in it. Who take action. Who keep showing up.
Because in the end, the scoreboard lags. The metrics don’t always tell the truth. The results don’t always show up on time.
So here's a better metric:
Did I stop today? No.
Track that.
Measure that.
Stack enough of those days, and the rest will take care of itself.
One more step.
One more rep.
One more milestone.
Stop stopping, and the results will come.
