When you choose to do hard things, life’s unexpected battles become the game days you’ve been training for. They’re still hard. But you have a sense of trust in yourself that you’ll get through them. You have a calmness that lets you dance in the storm.
Embracing discomfort rewires your response to adversity. Instead of running from it, you lean in. Instead of breaking under pressure, you grow stronger. Instead of just surviving, you look around to see who needs you.
You’ve trained for this. So, stare adversity in the eyes and smile at that son of a bitch.
