Discipline isn’t punishment. It’s not beating yourself up. It’s the practice of choosing the difficult thing over and over again until it becomes a normal part of your day.

The healer also needs healing. The planner also needs surprises. The giver also needs to receive. The thoughtful also needs to be thought of. The considerate also needs to be considered.

If you don't understand why somebody is grieving for so long over something, consider yourself fortunate that you do not understand.

The next time you're with your family, just observe. Watch how they speak, interact, and what sensations come up in your body. You'll get a masterclass on self awareness.

Yes, healing is hard. Becoming the best version of yourself isn’t meant to be easy. Not healing is also hard. Re-living generational trauma cycles is hard. Being stuck is hard. We get to choose our version of hard.
