Things usually get harder before they get easier.
If things aren’t going as easily as you’d like, maybe it’s because you’re avoiding what’s hard.
- Relationship issues? Usually stem from an avoidance of hard conversations.
- Career issues? Usually result from not doing enough of what’s hard, first.
- Joy issues? Usually turn up when harder to handle emotions aren’t properly dealt with.
The solution, of course, is to stop avoiding what’s hard and confront it head on.
Only then will the path finally become easier.
