As many times as it takes..

Sometimes, life asks us to persist. Not once, not twice, but many times.

It takes time to reach the breakthrough we’re chasing. It’s a mantra for the kind of resilience that goes beyond effort—it’s about staying grounded in purpose, no matter how elusive the end goal might seem.

The beauty of this commitment is that it redefines success, turning it into something larger than a single accomplishment — it becomes a journey, a test of strength, and a marker of self-growth.

Imagine standing at the base of a mountain, knowing the climb will be steep, the air thin, and the path ahead lined with challenges. Yet with every step, you draw closer to the summit, no matter how many attempts it takes.

This journey is not for the faint-hearted; it’s for those who are ready to keep going despite failures, setbacks, and moments of self-doubt. In these moments, we remind ourselves why we started in the first place.

For every project, dream, or relationship we pour ourselves into, there will be times we’re tempted to quit.

That’s natural.

But there’s something powerful in refusing to be defined by a single failure. Each setback becomes a stepping stone, each “no” a part of the narrative, and each challenge a way of asking how deeply we believe in our vision.

Often, it’s in our lowest moments—when things haven’t worked out despite our best efforts—that we find the strength to continue. This is where we dig deep, reconnecting with the purpose that fuels us but how do you keep going as many times as it takes without losing hope?

Good question.

By building a foundation that doesn’t rely solely on the outcome. Slowly, we learn to celebrate the small victories along the way.

We grow by recognising our progress, even when the big win feels far off. And through this journey, we realise that real success isn’t only in reaching the destination; it’s in becoming the kind of person who can persevere, adapt, and keep faith in their dreams against all odds.

Some days, today’s win might be small. It might look like finding just enough energy to try again, or hearing the quiet encouragement in a simple word that reminds us we’re not alone.

It might even be the quiet satisfaction of seeing our own progress, no matter how modest.

Often, these moments go unnoticed because they pass quietly, but they’re exactly the moments that build the resilience we need to keep moving forward.

So here’s to you and your “as many times as it takes.”

To your unnoticed wins and quiet victories, no matter how big or small.

May you rise each time with renewed strength, embracing each challenge as a stepping stone to your purpose to keep going — as many times as it takes..
