Transcript

The view from the top can't be seen until you reach it.

Every step along the way starts to feel impossible.

The journey ahead doesn't seem worth it anymore.

Looking back you see what you have,

A view of what was.

It's hard to see what could be ahead.

The mountain is blocking you.

But if you keep going,

Keep pushing,

Move one foot ahead of the other,

Until finally you reach the top.

And suddenly,

Turning back seems like a greater burden.

You want to cherish the breathtaking view you now have.

So if you are feeling like you need a breakthrough,

You need a little motivation to keep moving,

You are tempted to run back,

Recite these words,

The view from the top is worth it.

Take a deep breath in,

And slowly exhale.

Continue breathing for the next moment as you imagine the view from the top.

Imagine you've conquered your biggest mountain,

You've accomplished your greatest goal,

Your dreams have come true,

And you have arrived.

Breathe.

Allow your breathing to settle.

Recite the words you should have on repeat,

The words that will become your mantra.

The view from the top is worth it.

One more time,

The view from the top is worth it.

Keep going.
