This simple quote attributed to Albert Einstein is short but says alot. In simpified terms, it means when you encounter hardship, the experience of a difficult situation will reveal to you your true self.
When you are experiencing difficult situations or setbacks, whether they are mental, physical or emotional, how you truely face a dilemma reveals your true strengths, weaknesses, character and aptitude. Unless you are a psychopath, these personal attibutes are for only you to know as only you are a part of you and your thinking.
Through encountering adversity you will come to know your true authentic self better and deeper. Through self reflection begins the process of a more focused intentional path towards self improvement. Naturally, your true self internally is a reflection of how you are as a person externally and shapes your personality.
When your life is not exposed to difficult situations / environments, you don’t really expose to your self to develop inner strength to deal with challenges and discover your true potential.
Through mental and physical discomfort, you will begin to unlock a better version of you. Accept that the process maybe painful and or uncomfortable both mentally and physically. Challenge yourself daily and personal self growth will naturally happen. What you previously would have perceived as difficult will soon become the new normal.
Here I am last night, manhandling the Monster Tyre @ptfarmuk . This beast is a new addition at the farm I had yet to take on. The challenge naturally presented itself and so it just had to be done! It is almost as tall as me!!
So what will you be doing to challenging yourself today?
