Pain

Principles

Is a side-effect of a problem
By seeing pain, we are making progress
Most bad things are preconceived notions, and in reality, we can find good in them
To make use of our pain, we need to reflect
- Reflecting while in pain is best, but reflecting after is just as important
  - ex) It’s hard to learn forms of improvement while going through a breakup, but after you will have realized things you could have done better
- Results in rapid learning by utilizing our resources and experiences

By catering towards pain, we can:
1. Identify, accept, and learn from weaknesses
2. Let others know you are fine with criticism
3. Not feel obligated to hide signs of weakness

The #1 motivating factor to persevere through tough times is realizing that it is possible

Use feelings of anger and frustration to calm down and be more critical of the moment
Use pain to direct and alert us
- Go to the pain rather than avoid it
