Julie and I have chickens. They hang out in the backyard, clucking and scratching and pooping and laying eggs much as you may have heard chickens do. Julie actually has them trained to come running out to her every time she sees them and eat out of her hand.
One of the side effects of owning these chickens is that they scratch the ground all day long. And we have this thick, nasty ivy that takes up most of our backyard. Slowly, scratch by scratch, these chickens have begun eradicating the ivy. We didn't really notice a change at first, but now, 3 months later, half of our ivy is gone!
Change can happen suddenly, of course, but in this case, change happens

I hope this is an encouragement to you. If you feel like you are not where you want to be or who you want to be, remind yourself to just scratch enough ivy out for today and when you look back in 6 months, you're going to be amazed at how far you've come.
