Trust in your own strength will save you from dark days.

Trust in yourself gets built the way trust in anyone gets built, by keeping small promises and being seen to keep them. The audience happens to be you.

Getting up at the second alarm because that is what you said. Doing the twenty minutes. Making the call on Tuesday because Tuesday was when you named it.

None of it is impressive alone and all of it is deposited somewhere. On a dark morning you do not need to feel strong. You need a track record you half-believe, which is a far easier thing to have.
