Persistence comes with great reward.
<p>For three months, I could not access a platform I was working with as a writer, even though everything had been fine before then, I had access, I was doing the work, and I was showing up consistently.</p><p><br/></p><p>Then, all of a sudden, I did not have access anymore, no warning, no clear explanation, just a wall every time I tried to log in.</p><p><br/></p><p>For three long months, I searched for answers, I asked questions, I stressed the people assigned to vet my work, and I kept going back and forth trying to understand what had gone wrong, yet the most frustrating part was that I could not even reach the platform directly.</p><p><br/></p><p>So I carried it with me, in my thoughts, in my emotions, and in the quiet anxiety that followed me every day.</p><p><br/></p><p>Today was one of those days where nothing felt right, my phone had issues, unexpected expenses showed up, and I truly was not myself at all.</p><p><br/></p><p>But somehow, in the middle of that exhaustion, I kept researching, I kept trying, and I kept looking for a solution.</p><p><br/></p><p>And then it happened.</p><p><br/></p><p>I realized the problem was not the platform, not the people, and not even my work, I had unknowingly tampered with my phone settings.</p><p><br/></p><p>One small detail I had overlooked had cost me three months of stress.</p><p><br/></p><p>The moment I fixed it, I had access again, just like that, and I will not lie, I was so happy that I had to pause and breathe.</p><p><br/></p><p>In that moment, something deeper settled in my heart.</p><p><br/></p><p>Sometimes, the thing we are fighting so hard is not as far as we think, sometimes the door is not locked and we are simply holding the wrong key, and sometimes what feels like delay is actually redirection.</p><p><br/></p><p>The lesson I am taking home is this, do not stop searching, do not assume the worst too quickly, and do not quit just because it is taking longer than expected.</p><p><br/></p><p>Some breakthroughs do not come with noise, they come with clarity.</p><p><br/></p><p>If you are battling something right now and it feels endless, please do not relent, because you might be one small adjustment away from your answer, and when it finally clicks, you will understand why you had to keep going.</p><p><br/></p><p>I'm rooting for you 🤍 </p>
