Insightful read!

This is why fighters spar - a bit of controlled adversity, undertaken regularly and with progressive escalation, prepares a fighters mind to remain present in the very real "fight or flight" response in an actual fight. It allows them to perform, "under the lights", when they need to most!

I think you've done a great job of highlighting how this principle applies in all facets of life! 😁🙏

I related to this deeply. I do experience that shock, and also excitement and curiosity for what lies ahead and what will be coming into my life because I chose to make this change. Thank you for breaking this down. It's truly helpful. Love, Virg

I completely relate to the stress of change that you’ve described. I’ve moved to different countries twice where I didn’t know anyone, and I’ve now gotten to know myself in that I get very homesick the first couple of weeks, but I just have to breathe and let it pass before I become amazed by the new place I’m in. Now I’m in that weird quarter-life crisis transition between the end of university and starting a career. It’s been tough figuring out what kind of career I want and doing the work to pursue it at the same time. There are times I freak out and feel extremely unstable in the uncertainty of the near future. But I know it will work out eventually, and I just need to have faith and trust that I’m going to get myself there :). Thanks for sharing this post.

Thank you for sharing❤️ i experienced the same things as you and that’s exactly what I’m talking about here, the shock after moving in a new country for me was exactly where I started reflecting on this feeling

I loved this and I’m definitely in the middle of a change at the moment. The thing that really stood out was the acknowledgement to reconnect with the deeper why ! That was the reset /realignment that I needed to hear today . Thank you 🙏.
