In basketball, I usually match up against the same few players each week.
And it gets frustrating because as I get better… so do they.
It wasn’t until I played today against someone who rarely plays that I realized how much better I’ve gotten.
This isn’t to pat myself on the back.
It’s a reminder that while frustration can be an overwhelming emotion that often leads to quitting… it’s also an incredibly important signal that’s telling you you’re in that uncomfortable zone that often leads to growth.
Those who can tolerate frustration the longest are almost always the ones who advance the furthest.
