a young girl swimming in the ocean with a quote on it

Once, a young athlete faced constant setbacks in his training. Every time he felt he was close to his goal, something would knock him down. One day, his coach said, "You see that stone? Drip by drip, water carves through it. It doesn’t break because the water is strong but because it's consistent."The athlete realized it wasn't about how fast or hard he pushed but about showing up every day, even when it seemed impossible. From that day forward, he focused on consistent effort, and soon, he became unstoppable. Remember, small steps every day lead to big victories.
