“Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” — Galatians 6:9
If I’m being real, as an early entrepreneur, I don’t think there’s ever a season where quitting doesn’t cross your mind.
Even in the highs, when people are responding, when things feel exciting, that rush is temporary. It fades fast the moment the bills come back and, they don’t match your expectations.
Especially when you don’t come from money.
When you don’t know the rules, you don’t even know what you don’t know. And when that’s the case, you end up making rules up as you go. That’s when quitting starts to feel like the only logical option.
Artists feel this deeply. You can’t walk into a bank and say, “I want a loan to be an actor.”You have to build a brand. You have to build consistency. You have to put in visible work.
Same thing for producers. Nobody buys the script, they buy the proof. Receipts matter.
And you can’t create receipts if you don’t stay in the game.
That’s why most people quit right before their breakthrough.
Not because they’re lazy, but because the pressure becomes unfamiliar and insurmountable.
Here’s the truth though:
Breakthroughs don’t happen all at once. They happen in intervals.
Every time you didn’t quit? That was a breakthrough. Every time you kept moving, that was progress.
Quitting rarely looks dramatic.
Most of the time it looks like:
Slowing down
Pulling back
Doubting the vision
Questioning God
Quitting becomes real the moment those thoughts make you stop.
And you can’t stop. Whatever you don’t exercise will atrophy. Momentum dies in stillness.
What actually moves you forward is accepting the brutal facts?
What don’t I know?
What rules am I missing?
Who do I need to learn from?
Most pitfalls repeat because of unknown rules, especially around money. Bad credit. More going out than coming in. No systems. No structure.
That’s why education, mentorship, and financial clarity matter.
Not to make life easy, but to make quitting unrealistic.
When capital flows.When rules are clear.When systems exist. Quitting stops feeling like an option.
Until then, you learn fast. You move fast. You stay in motion.
Because success meets speed every time.
BRAND MAN TIP OF THE DAY

“Push Through
Resistance Cycles”
Resistance isn’t a stop sign; it’s a signal.
It shows you:
Where the gaps are?
What rules are you missing?
What systems do you need next?
Don’t pause the mission.
Upgrade the execution.
ACTIONABLE MOVE:
Identify one rule you don’t fully understand yet:
Money
Credit
Pricing
Systems
Then commit to learning it this week.
Speed + clarity collapses resistance.
