Learning an instrument takes years, not weeks. Weight loss works the same way. If you expect the scale to move in a month and quit when it doesn't, you'll never get there. Commit to the process unconditionally and give yourself time.

If you had a kid and they said, I'm going to play the piano, but if I don't get good in a month, I'm going to quit, you would say, no, it's going to take longer than that. Be patient. It's a long term process. However, when it comes to your weight loss, if you don't lose weight in a week or a month, how do you feel? You feel like you want to quit. It's because you approach weight loss with a short term timeframe and you're extremely conditional. If the weight and the scale doesn't move the way you want it to, you just want to quit. You want to give up. You need to stop that. You've got to become unconditional. You have to create the mindset that I'm going to do this no matter how long it takes me. Give yourself more time so that you don't feel so discouraged and frustrated in the short term, so that you can get the long term results that you deserve.
