If you really want to see what you’re made of, don’t go to therapy to unpack your childhood. Go fight a schizophrenic UFC champion sixty pounds heavier than you.
You will learn everything you need to know.
You'd relentlessly pursue returning to your "past self."
As obvious obstacles arise, you'd forward with the strong belief that recovery is just slow, requiring more effort.
Questions like "Am I worthy? Can I do this?" wouldn’t even flicker in your mind. WHY?
Because you already know you're that person, just temporarily out of form and gearing up to return to peak condition.
