Equanimity- Evenness of mind or temper; calmness or firmness, especially under conditions adapted to excite great emotion; a state of resistance to elation, depression, anger, etc.

That's what getting uncomfortable is truly all about for me. About preparing for the unknown. It's about recognizing I can get through difficult pursuits and don't have to listen to the voice that tells me how hard that it will be.

The other part of this process is acceptance. Acceptance of what is happening, regardless of my personal desires or outcomes I'd wish to see. Accepting the good AND the bad, and remaining calm about it.

When I do this I tend to realize the amazing things that happen right in front of me.  I realize that for me, happiness isn't a destination, it's already here. So it's like this positive feedback loop that makes me want to continue to cultivate these dispositions.

I hope you enjoyed today's show, if you did share this a friend that would enjoy it.
