⋆.˚ 𖥔˚ PERSISTENCE ISN’T THAT FUCKING HARD. YOU’RE JUST OVERTHINKING IT.
Here’s the truth, babe:
Persistence isn’t some mystical, complicated, twenty-step ritual with moon water and six daily meditations.
It’s literally just this:
“Yeah. It’s already mine.”
That’s it. No glittery lightning bolt. No thunderous spiritual awakening. Just a quiet, calm, deep-rooted certainty that what you want is already yours.
Not “might be,” not “hopefully,” not “if I do everything right.”
It is. Yours. Period.
“What if I’m just delusional?” “What if I don’t deserve it?” “What if it’s not working???”
Okay. Take a breath. Let’s be real: doubt is normal. You're not a self-help robot. You're not here to repeat affirmations like a broken cassette tape in a yoga studio. You’re not meant to be perfectly positive every hour of every day. That’s exhausting and unrealistic.
Even when you’re crying.
Even when you’re spiraling.
Even when you feel like a damn goblin in emotional shambles—
It’s still yours.
You having a moment of fear? That doesn’t undo the energy you’ve already locked in. You having a breakdown in bed at 2AM? Still doesn’t change the fact that what you want is already on the way.
Because you decided. You claimed it. You set that standard. And once you’ve decided something is yours, that energy doesn’t just disappear because your vibes were off for a day. This isn’t about being perfect. This is about being solid.
You’re human. You’re allowed to feel like shit. You don’t have to constantly be chanting “I am abundant” while forcing a smile like a possessed Barbie. You can fall apart. You can doubt. You can scream into a pillow. You can be a whole mess and STILL be magnetic as hell.
Because persistence is not about controlling how you feel. It’s about knowing that beneath all the chaos, deep in your core—you already believe. That’s all it takes.
That lowkey, quiet belief that never really leaves.
That tiny flicker in your chest that whispers:
“No matter what I feel right now… it’s mine.” That’s the kind of power you don’t have to scream to prove. That’s the energy that bends reality for you. Unshakable. Subtle. Devastatingly effective.
So cry.
Eat junk.
Doubt yourself.
Throw a tantrum.
Take a break.
Feel it all.
But don’t EVER fucking forget who the hell you are.
You’re not just manifesting.
You’re embodying.
You’re not waiting.
You’re arriving.
You’re not begging.
You’re declaring.
Because it is.
Even on your worst day,
you’re still that bitch.
🖕 Love,
✦ Mercy, your raging godmother or whatever <3

It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.
Mark Twain
When you go to another level in your life. It demands a different version of yourself.
If you let 3 or 300 failures stop you, then you don't want your goal. The ones' who stick it out, in ALL the bad/stressful/impossible/no way out situations are the ones who make it out alive. All you need to do is focus and endure.
