I think this sounds good but is ultimately not good advice.

Finishing, as in will power, focus, and vision, is like a muscle that you can take to the gym.

This advice is the equivalent of going for a run one day and never picking up the habit. I don't think it will lead to fitness.

Yes, a weak work ethic takes years to rectify. I had a very bad weak work ethic because of health issues when I was a kid and only in my 30s did I finally fix it.
