Find that spot where you're most scared to go and go there.

And I promise you two things.

One, that it will be painful, at least to some extent.

And two, most importantly, it will be worth it.

It will burn down the old you so that the new you can rise.

And I'm speaking from nothing but experience.

Every word derived from the delta between how I used to live and how I live now.

I'm referring to all the good that came from finding the courage to let my old self die,

a recreation of sorts.

And I'll tell you what happens.

Your mind, your body, at least initially, start to panic.

They say, wait, this is not you. Go back to how things were.

You, you followed orders. You did what you were told.

You were linked to predictability.

Remember how great that felt?

Many of the people in your life, they won't like it either.

For various reasons, perhaps it reminds them of their own limiting beliefs.

Perhaps it shines a spotlight on the fact that most people in your life,

yeah, they want you to do well, just not better than

they're doing.

And so you'll get resentment and gossip and a very obvious tension.

But just like your mind and bodies seek to hold you to the status quo, so does the world
