It's normal to feel discouraged when things aren't turning out the way you'd planned but that doesn't mean it's fun! But the thing is - if you quit and give up, you're only creating more discouragement. Which is exactly what you're trying to avoid. So learning how to manage your mind is SO important.

In this episode I'm sharing:

- What creates the feeling of discouragement and how to get yourself out of that emotion

- Why it's normal to feel discouraged when you start something new and how to manage your expectations without losing hope or aiming too low

- How setting effort-based goals, rather than results-based goals, can help you persist through the initial stages of something new

- Why gratitude is so powerful and simple ways to practice it

- And more!
