Be persistent: If you want something badly enough, you need to work at it. This is especially true when it comes to relationships.

I'm not on my A-game today. I'm not emotionally alert, having trouble seeing clearly, mentally foggy.
I can 'bag it' or press in more intentionally to try to overcome. Sometimes persistence seems natural; sometimes I have to choose it. I have a sense of what it needs to be today....
