Truth Outlasts the Big Lie

Excuses are a game we play to convince other people, not ourselves.

You don’t even believe your excuses. You know that. But you hope other people believe them.

You know the truth. That is why you make the excuse.

No matter how many excuses you make or how passionately you sell them to others, the truth sits in your stomach like a lead weight. Sell the excuse long enough, and you may even begin to convince yourself.

But the truth?

The truth never changes.

Brick by brick. Do the work.
