When you outsource your happiness, you’ll always be under stress.
You can be a writer with spelling mistakes.
A language learning expert who is afraid of speaking a foreign language.

There’s something you’re doing great at.
There always is.
Can you see it?
The wall separating you from what you really want is real – until it isn’t.

And once you walk right through it, you’ll understand that everything you want is possible.
Not just for others.
Also (and especially) for you.

Without anger, how do I know I’m grateful?
Without gratitude, how do I know I’m angry?
Without pain, how do I know what pleasure feels like?
Without pleasure, how do I know I’m in pain?
Without bad moments, how can I appreciate the good ones?
Without good moments, what gets me through the bad ones?
Contrast.
A rough morning doesn’t mean a rough day – but it could.
A pleasant morning doesn’t mean a pleasant day – but it could.
