I still don’t know how to do it. I enjoyed your piece - I like to see related images interspersed throughout an article, so that’s the only thing I’d add. It’s great!

Very happy to have you here. My story is like yours. This is the first social media I’ve ever tried that instantly made me feel at home. Welcome!

Hello Nostr!

I’ve been lurking here for a couple of months and decided it is time to interact in a more meaningful way. To create content vs. just the occasional reply to someone else’s note.

Also previously lurked on X but never interacted as I just didn’t feel part of the community. I am now nostr only.

Anyway, here is a little about me. I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy with a 10+ year focus on geriatrics. Specifically helping people help their parents navigate this current healthcare environment in the US.

It seems no one thinks about their parents having a fall, injury or medical event until they wind up hospitalized and most of the decisions and responsibility falls on the children who usually have little to no knowledge of how this broken system has to be managed.

I have written a book titled The Accidental Caregiver’s Guide: The toolkit for navigating the healthcare system and aging in place. It has 153 five star reviews on Amazon. If anyone would like a copy just reach out and I can email you a free pdf. Also happy to post the book for free on nostr if there is a way to do that.

My wife and I are actively reducing our hours working for someone else and look to spend more time raising our young daughters and focusing on our health.

I look forward to contributing to the value for value community here. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance. Thank you for reading this and have a great day!

Winn

Welcome to the conversation!

Tired? So what? Do you think success waits for you to feel rested? Achievements don’t care about your comfort, and neither should you. The truth is brutal: either you keep going, or you get left behind. Sitting around waiting for the “perfect moment” is a luxury for those who don’t want it bad enough.

### **Why Excuses Don’t Cut It**

Feeling tired doesn’t make you special—it’s a universal experience. Everyone feels drained, but only the determined push through. The difference between winners and everyone else? Winners get it done, regardless of how they feel.

- **Fatigue Is Temporary**: That exhaustion you feel? It will pass. But quitting creates a habit that sticks.

- **Action Over Emotion**: Don’t let how you feel dictate what you do. Feelings are fleeting; the work is what matters.

- **Nobody Cares About Excuses**: Harsh truth—no one’s handing out awards for “almost tried.” Results are what count.

### **Strength Is Built in the Struggle**

Every time you push through fatigue, you become stronger. You’re not just building your dreams—you’re building your resilience.

- **Growth Comes From Resistance**: Muscles grow under tension. The same applies to your mind and willpower.

- **Tired? Good.** It means you’re working. It means you’re on the edge of improvement. Keep going.

- **Prove It to Yourself**: This is your chance to show yourself what you’re made of. Are you going to quit, or are you going to fight?

### **What’s the Alternative?**

Let’s be real. The alternative to pushing through is stagnation. If you quit now, where does that leave you?

- **Wasted Time**: All the effort you’ve already put in—gone. Do you want to start over later, or finish now?

- **Living With Regret**: The pain of pushing through is nothing compared to the pain of looking back and wishing you’d tried harder.

### **How to Push Through the Exhaustion**

It’s not easy, but nothing worth having ever is. When you’re tired, here’s how to keep moving:

- **Simplify the Task**: Stop overthinking. Break it into smaller, manageable steps. Focus on the next move.

- **Use the Pain as Fuel**: Let the fact that you’re tired ignite your determination. Think of it as a test you refuse to fail.

- **Visualize the Finish Line**: Picture what success looks and feels like. Let that vision pull you forward.

### **You’ve Got More in You**

Being tired is a signal, but it’s not a stop sign. You have more in you than you realize, but you’ll never know unless you push past the point of comfort. Remember, the best don’t quit when they’re tired—they keep going until the job is done.

### **Final Challenge**

So, what’s it going to be? Are you going to fold under the weight of your own excuses, or are you going to rise and fight? Being tired isn’t an excuse—it’s proof that you’re in the arena, doing the work. Now finish what you started.

Because tired or not, the goal doesn’t care. And neither should you.
