Things in life seem to be impossible until you get them done.
What you need to get them done is persistence- the ability to keep on going no matter what the obstacles are.

"As long as you keep making shots on goal, and you keep getting back up, eventually you'll get through. Just stick at it."

1/ THINKING
The first thing you need to do is THINK about what you really want to achieve.
It has to be something that you value and care about.
Don't get influenced by others, it's your vision that matters.

2/ SETTING A GOAL
Now you have a goal. Don't get too excited because it was the easiest part.
You might have thought that it will make you jump out of bed every single day, and sure it will, until you get tired.
That's the phase when you will be tested.

3/ SMALL STEPS
In order to tackle your goal efficiently try to break it down into smaller steps so that you know how to start.
Now is the time for action.

4/ ACTION
Once you decide to start taking action you will quickly recognize that it's not as easy as it seemed to be.
The biggest obstacle will be most probably yourself.
There will be days when you won't feel like doing anything, but you have to keep on pushing yourself.

5/ CONSISTENCY
The times of struggle and frustration show if you really want to succeed.
Only staying consistent will enable you to move forward.

6/ INNER CIRCLE
Your inner circle will also play a huge role at this stage.
Surround yourself with like-minded people who inspire you.
Remember: quality > quantity.

7/ JEALOUSY
When you start to somehow make things work a bit people will quickly see it.
What comes with it is jealousy.
Don't worry about people talking behind your back, there is a reason why they are behind you.

8/ FAILURES
Treat failures as opportunities to begin once again, more intelligently.
If you are not ready to fail, you are not ready to succeed.

9/ PERSISTENCE
Persistence is what stands between your dreams and reality.
This key factor will show if you are a quitter or a winner.
Winners never quit and quitters never win.

10/ PATIENCE
The success doesn't happen overnight.
As many say: Patience is not the ability to wait,
but the ability to keep a good attitude while waiting.
Keep your thoughts focused on the goal.

11/ SUCCESS
Now is the part that @naval mentioned.
You got through it all. You are free. You succeeded.
It can take you years or even decades of preparation and action to get to this stage.
Let's meet there in the future.
See you!
