I’m in love with this sentence:
“A person's capacity for growth is directly linked to how much truth they can handle about themselves without running away.”
Once upon a time i fell in love with my best friend. The sentiment was unrequited. The friendship carried on, but my heart almost died. I resuscitated it multiple times. Ultimately, I was born again, stronger & more discerning. We’re still friends. But I no longer yearn him.
if you want to collapse the timeline between where you are and where you want to be, the 'how' is actually incredibly simple. it takes three steps: 1. align your identity with your desire, 2. create a non negotiable routine that locks that identity in, 3. commit to that routine until your physical reality catches up.
