Slightly stronger

You become stronger by making use of your strength. You become stronger one small step at a time.

In this next minute, see if you can be just a little bit stronger than you were a minute ago. It’s a small choice that can end up making a big difference.

See every challenge, every encounter, every situation as your opportunity to be slightly stronger than before. Make it your intention to make good use of your strength, and by doing so you make more of it.

Strength can build on itself when you let it, if you exercise it. With patience, with persistence, with intentional choice, grow stronger.

The same dynamic applies in the other direction too, causing you to gradually lose strength if you don’t use it. Either way, what you choose day after day, moment by moment, is multiplied over time.

Point the trend in your favor. Be slightly stronger, repeatedly, consistently, and build great strength in your life.
