We must understand that progress is not linear! Let me give you a specific example. If you want to make progress at the gym, don't expect to be able to increase the weight you can lift in every single training session. There will be days where you didn't sleep so well, didn't eat enough, or simply conducted your workout differently, and that will affect your performance. You might be able to lift less weight than in the previous session, and here's the thing: that doesn't mean you're not making progress. That same logic applies to many different areas of your life. You have to be able to think long-term. Yes, you might not have made any visible progress in the current week, but that doesn't matter, if you look at your trajectory from a distance, you'll see if you made progress or not. Progress takes time. Besides that, there will probably be setbacks along the way. There will be moments where you'll plateau, or where you'll even decrease your performance. But if you keep making the effort, you will surely get over those obstacles.
