About this episode

This episode discusses how to cope with feeling off track from your goals and emphasizes that it's okay to pause and return to your path.

When you get off track from your goals, it can be easy to convince yourself that you’ve failed. You miss a few days of your routine. Life gets busy. You get distracted, go on vacation, stay up late with friends, or simply stop doing the things you promised yourself you would do. Suddenly, you feel like you’ve lost all your progress and have to start over. But getting off track doesn’t mean you’ve failed. Sometimes life takes us on little side quests — and that’s okay. You’re allowed to live your life. You’re allowed to pause. You’re allowed to have days that don’t look like the vision you had for yourself. What matters is that you remember you can always come back. Getting off track is not the end of the journey. The path is still there. And whenever you’re ready, you can always hop back on. This is your reminder that you’re not a failure, you’re human — and you’re always allowed to hop back on the path to your desired reality.
