The Pursuit. The Efforts. The Goal.

You expend effort on a project so much that it takes its toll on you. People notice. It's that bad. They advise you to take it easy next time. You take it to heart while awaiting the result of your toiling.

Then, it turns out you exceeded expectations. The results show you excelled tremendously. You were among the best.

Thrilled beyond measure, you pat yourself on the back. You nod to the accolades. You bow to the applause. Consciously or unconsciously you accept the fact that giving it your all has its purposes. You discard the counsel to ever take things easy. You shred the thought of partial or incremental effort.

As you soak in the exhilaration of success, you accept that there will be sleepless nights ahead. And you embrace that acceptance while highlighting your next goals.
