The good life is learning to do hard things well.
We do this by embracing the suck of doing hard things. When we embrace this we quickly realize doing hard things poorly is the reality preceding the aim of doing them well. Trust the process, friend. Keep reaching for tough targets. As I told another “mature” clients recently, we are not preparing to wind down as we set 2030 targets. We are leveling the hell up. We laughed as we imagined life in our 70’s. We are not winding down, at least it’s not our plan. We cannot predict disease, disaster, or much else in our future. We can dream big and face the brutal facts of our reality without losing hope. We can inoculate ourselves for the unchosen suffering by finding joy in enduring the chosen kind.
God, help me receive your love with gratitude. God, help me model the way, embrace pain and suffering, and embody truth in Love. God, help me accept my place, lack of control, and stay in the fight. God, help me give more than I take. God, help me level up – not wind down. God, help me live hard and love harder.
Beautiful day, today. Beautiful day to level up.
Live hard. Love harder…
