@ryanweather Please clarify!

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

Sean McVay shares a universal truth about adversity and resilience.

"You're either in it, you're coming out of it, or you're gonna go back into it in a short period of time."

That's the reality. Adversity isn't a one-time event - it's a cycle.

"The separator is people's ability to handle that. How long can you stay in some of those uncomfortable spots and knowing that real growth is occurring?"

The question isn't whether adversity will come. Because it will.

The question is: can you stay in the discomfort long enough to grow from it?

"Adversity's inevitable. That's what's so great about sports. We learn so many things that test you in ways that are reflective of what you go through in a bunch of different arenas."

You don't grow despite adversity - you grow because of it.

The best aren't fearless - they just keep showing up.
