 Trust in the Process: Keep Going, No Matter What



By Colleeno Chippy


Life has a funny way of testing us, doesn’t it? Just when we think we’ve got it all figured out, a challenge comes along that shakes our faith, rattles our confidence, and makes us wonder if we’re on the right path. But here’s the thing: every great story has a turning point, and yours is no different.


Trust in the process. Even when the road ahead seems unclear, even when the journey feels overwhelming, there’s a purpose to every twist and turn.


What Does It Mean to Trust the Process?


Trusting the process means believing in the journey, even when you can’t see the destination. It’s about knowing that every step, every struggle, every victory is shaping you into the person you’re meant to become.


Think of it like planting a seed. You water it, nurture it, and give it sunlight. For weeks, it looks like nothing is happening. But underground, where you can’t see, roots are forming. Growth is happening. And then one day, seemingly out of nowhere, a sprout emerges.


That’s the process. Growth is happening, even when it’s not visible.


Why Trusting the Process is Hard (and Why It’s Worth It)


Let’s be real—trusting the process isn’t easy. There are moments when you’ll feel stuck, defeated, or like you’re walking in circles. You might feel like giving up entirely.


But here’s the truth: every challenge you face is teaching you something. Every setback is preparing you for a comeback. Trusting the process is hard because growth is hard. But it’s worth it because the person you’re becoming on this journey is stronger, wiser, and more resilient than you can imagine.


How to Trust the Process When Times Get Tough


1.⁠ ⁠Focus on Progress, Not Perfection


You don’t need to have it all figured out right now. Take it one step at a time. Celebrate small victories and remind yourself that even slow progress is still progress.


2.⁠ ⁠Let Go of the Need to Control Everything


Some things are beyond your control, and that’s okay. Focus on what you can do today—no matter how small—and trust that the rest will fall into place.


3.⁠ ⁠Reflect on Past Wins


Think back to a time when you overcame a challenge or achieved a goal. What felt impossible back then is now a chapter in your story. Use those moments as proof that you’re capable of handling whatever comes your way.


4.⁠ ⁠Surround Yourself with Positivity


Whether it’s uplifting books, motivational podcasts, or encouraging people, surround yourself with things that remind you to keep going.


Inspirational Thoughts to Keep You Going


• “Every storm runs out of rain.”

The tough times won’t last forever. Keep moving forward, and you’ll find brighter days ahead.

• “The universe is never in a hurry, yet everything gets accomplished.”

Like nature, your journey unfolds at the perfect pace. Trust that everything is happening in its own time.

• “What’s coming is better than what’s gone.”

The best chapters of your story are still ahead. Keep turning the page.


A Personal Message from Colleeno Chippy


I know how hard it can be to keep going when the road feels endless. But I’ve learned that some of life’s greatest lessons come from the moments when we feel the most lost. It’s in those moments that we discover our strength, our resilience, and our ability to rise above.


Trust the process, even when it feels impossible. You’re growing in ways you can’t yet see, and your breakthrough is closer than you think.

The Illusion of Productivity: When Learning Becomes a Hiding Place

  The Illusion of Productivity: When Learning Becomes a Hiding Place By Colleeno Chippy In today’s world, productivity has become a badge of honor. We chase full schedules, long to-do lists, and endless multitasking as proof that we’re doing something meaningful. But here’s the truth — being busy doesn’t always mean being purposeful. Sometimes, productivity is just another form of procrastination. We study, we plan, we prepare — but deep down, we’re avoiding the real work that demands courage, vulnerability, or faith. When “Busy” Becomes a Distraction There’s a special kind of exhaustion that comes from doing everything except the one thing that would truly move your life forward. It feels safe to stay in constant motion. To learn more, research more, or organize more. Because if you’re “working on it,” then you don’t have to face the fear of actually doing it. But motion isn’t the same as progress. You can be moving every day and still standing in the same place spiritually...

The Difference Between Motion and Action: Why Progress Demands Movement

  The Difference Between Motion and Action: Why Progress Demands Movement By Colleeno Chippy There’s a subtle trap many of us fall into — one that feels productive but keeps us stuck. It’s the illusion of progress. We tell ourselves we’re “working on it,” “getting ready,” or “still planning.” But sometimes, what we call progress is really just motion — not action. Motion Feels Good, But It’s Not Always Growth Motion looks like researching, brainstorming, journaling, and talking about your goals. It’s reading books on healing without actually healing. It’s watching motivational videos without applying a single lesson. It feels like progress because you’re engaged — but it’s safe. There’s no risk in motion. Action, however, takes courage. Action means showing up, even when you don’t feel ready. It’s pressing “publish” on that post, applying for the job, writing the first page of your book, or booking that first client. Action transforms intention into impact. The Comfort of Mo...

The Weight of Self-Accountability

  The Weight of Self-Accountability By Colleeno Chippy Introduction It’s easy to point fingers when things don’t go as planned—blaming time, circumstances, or even other people. But true growth and greatness demand something far deeper: self-accountability. Holding yourself responsible is heavy, yes, but it is also the kind of weight that builds strength. Discipline and accountability go hand in hand. Without them, greatness remains out of reach. Why Excuses Keep Us Stuck Excuses are comforting because they relieve us of responsibility. But every excuse is also a chain, keeping us locked in the same cycle. When you stop making excuses and start owning your actions, you take back your power. Accountability may sting at first, but it is the doorway to transformation. The Strength in Owning Your Choices Self-accountability means being honest about your part—your decisions, your habits, your patterns. It’s not about self-blame but self-ownership. When you recognize your role in ...
