When my daughter was 3, We were trying to get her to learn to eat vegetables.
(Greatest task for mankind in some homes)
Well....Brussel sprouts sort of "stinkwhenyoucookem"
she wasn't too thrilled when we put them on her plate. She connected the smell in the house to what was on her plate and was reluctant to eat them.
I was fast on my feet and told her ther were baby cabbage (pronounced like Nicky Minaj)
She downed them and has loved them to this day.
The moral of the story:
It's what you are thinking that is real to you. so instead of saying It's harder than I thought" say instead, "It will be better tomorrow if I get through today."
Keep that thought in mind every day and you will get through
