@halletecco Wishing you the tenacity with your writing. I deeply empathize with you as I have questioned my continued contribution to healthcare as I flounder in this abysmal job market.
I can't stop thinking about this...
Michael Caine on his defining philosophy on life:
Use the Difficulty
As a young actor, he was rehearsing a play scene when a chair got stuck in the door and blocked his path.
He told the other actor he couldn't get by the chair to enter the room in the scene.
The actor's response:
"Use the difficulty...if it's a comedy, fall over it, if it's a drama, pick it up and smash it."
This ideaโof using the difficultyโbecame a defining mantra for Michael Caine's life.
"There's never anything so bad that you cannot use that difficulty...if you can use it a quarter of one percent to your advantage, you're ahead, you didn't let it get you down."
This idea hit me hard...
How can you use the difficulty you're currently facing?
How can you embrace the struggle?
How can you find flow through the friction?
How can you sow the seeds of your light during the periods of darkness?
As with everything in life, control the controllable:
The difficulty is already there, you can't control it.
You can control how you react to it.
You can control your response to it.
You can control your attitude towards it.
Lesson: Difficulty is inevitable. Use it.
