Accept All Challenges.

It does not matter what is in front of you…

• Relationship drama.
• Work struggles.
• Annoying person on the subway.
• Old patterns of behaviour.
• Unresolved issues with your parents.
• A friend is MIA and ghosting you.
• Fear of the presentation you have to give.
• Awkwardness of learning a new skill.

Accept all challenges. Immediately. Without hesitation.

Do not avoid. Squirm. Deflect. Deny. Avoid. Escape. 

What is paramount is the fundamental principle—the posture—beneath all challenges: you face life head on. 

You go forward.

You persist through what is resisting you.

No challenge is ‘beneath you’. No problem is too big or too small for the totality of your spirit. This isn’t a deviation from your path. This is your path.

This is your life, happening right in front of you, waiting for you to meet it fully.

How do you possibly know that the Curriculum life is giving you is not exactly what you need, precisely when you need it? Since when did you have a sound grasp on the workings of Almighty Impenetrable?

• “I’m working on scaling my company, and this relationship drama is stupid, I don’t have time to deal with it.”
• “This is too much for me, I can’t handle all of this responsibility and uncertainty.”
• “Why does my partner still not trust me? Why are we still arguing about the dishes? Why is this happening? It’s so trivial.”
• “I’m too depressed to do anything today, no way I can take the walk or get on my yoga mat.”

No.

This is the moment. Your moment. Your challenge.

And you accept all challenges.

Life is giving you a gift. The healthy dynamic tension required to bring a new level of mastery out of you. 

The side conversation with the stranger at the coffee shop may hold the answer to the relationship problem you haven’t solved. The momentary delay in your commute is saving you from a head-on collision. Learning how to lead your team is teaching you how to lead yourself. 

Face life head-on. Unflinching. Unblinking. Unbreakable.

It does not matter what is in front of you...

Nothing is beneath you. Nothing is beyond your reach.

You were made for times like these,
