• Periods of Exile and Growth: Feeling lost or stuck is often part of the creative process. However, these moments of exile can also be valuable opportunities for growth, as long as we persist and learn from the experience.
• The Hero’s Journey: Every person embarking on a creative or entrepreneurial path undergoes a hero’s journey. By embracing the challenges and setbacks, we can emerge more robust and aligned with our purpose.
• Facing Resistance Daily: Consistently showing up and doing the work, even when Resistance is at its strongest, is the key to long-term success and fulfillment.
