What separates this claim from mere motivational cheerleading is the word *continuous*—not occasional bursts of willpower, but the grinding, unglamorous repetition that most of us would rather skip. Hill isn't celebrating the dramatic struggle or the victory; he's pointing toward the monotonous Tuesday when you don't feel like practicing, training, or trying again after yesterday's failure. Consider a musician learning an instrument: the growth happens not during the exhilarating moment of nailing a passage, but during the hundredth repetition of the same dozen measures when boredom sets in and your fingers ache. This is why so many people plateau—they mistake the absence of struggle for arrival, rather than understanding that struggle itself *is* the substance of becoming.
