#Theweekthatwas @ 09/11/2025
A week of significant growth had several lessons:
As much as we can learn from others' successes, we can also learn from their comebacks
While it is true that feelings drive our actions, the reverse is also true
It is impossible to sound angry when you try to express your anger with a (toothy) smile on your face
Pain felt at the identity level is more likely to spark behavioural change compared to superficial pain
Sometimes we have rules that we've created for ourselves which no longer serve us
Uncomfortable is where the growth occurs
Announcing your intentions publicly invokes a different level of accountability
When we derive our confidence merely from ourselves, we risk falling into a state of arrogance
People don't read your scriptures, they read you
Partnering with others doesn’t require agreement on everything
Many of our deepest held beliefs were not born on the same day as us
