Growing Pains

 

It's called growing pains, not growing pleasures.

Whether you're embarking on a career shift, more responsibility, or a fresh season in life...your "Hollywood brain” likes to imagine growth as an exhilarating leap from one frontier to the next.

In reality, it's more like a slow, frustrating, awkward trudge through a muck of mistakes and uncertainty.

Ideal soil for self-doubt.

Like quicksand, the more you fight…the deeper you sink.

So, give in and let go:

  • Give in to the reality that this may be a tough and trying season

  • Let go of expectations trying to tell you what this should look or feel like

Be gentle and patient with yourself.

It’s the best way to conserve the energy needed for the growth in store for you tomorrow.
