Default Personal Development: The Core Truth

In my opinion the core truth about personal development is:

To succeed at what you want at some point you will have to do something when you do not feel like doing it. There is no way around this.

There are many personal development materials out there that can give you useful advice, but none of them can make this reality go away. The sooner a person accepts this truth about life the sooner s/he can stop pursuing the next hot system that holds the promise of being the "spoon full of sugar that helps the medicine go down", the magic trick to make something difficult feel appealing. Sooner or later, everybody comes back to the point of having to do something when they don't feel like doing it.
