Getting Frustrated

Every once in a while I look in the mirror and think, shit, is it really worth punishing myself like this? Do I really want to get up at 4 in the morning every day to go to gym and have sore muscles all over when I don’t see much change in my reflection?

My wife said feeling like this means I am human after all. I think it means I am getting extremely frustrated...

Here is a good quote to read when you are feeling like I am feeling today:

"A man goes to an old-fashioned well to pump some drinking water. The man pushes the pump's lever over and over again, and is seemingly making no progress whatsoever. The man is indeed making progress, however, it just isn't visible to him at the time. Deep in the underground pipes, suction is being created and is slowly siphoning the water to the surface. If he gets discouraged and stops pumping, the water will fall again, and he'll have to start all over." - article by Skip La Cour.
