Something they don't tell you about getting better is it feels like you're getting worse.
You'll feel dumb before you're wise.
You'll feel weak before you're strong.
You'll feel terrified before you're brave.
In order to heal, you need to suffer.
In order to feel peace, you need to experience chaos.
Life disguises growth as failure and progress as pain.
If it's hard, it matters.
Becoming is messy. It breaks who you were to make room for you're meant to be.
You don't build strength by feeling powerful, but by showing up when you feel powerless.
Jan 31, 2026 19:12If you feel tired or uncertain or behind, you're in the middle of becoming and you're just around the corner from success.
When you get there, you'll turn around and realize you couldn't have found yourself without getting lost first.
