1. It's okay to slow down, and it's okay to take a breather. If you need it, do it!

2. Set a deadline for yourself to BE AT the other side of your bridge. This is to hold yourself accountable AND to make sure you don't stay sedentary in your break.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Keep moving forward. Forward is forward. No matter your speed, celebrate the progress you are making.

Hooray! Now you have three more mental tools! So keep moving forward and cross that bridge!
