The Clean Pain of Being Alive

Tension is inherent to growth. Tension grows capacity, but only when you allow it and are willing to work with it as opposed to go against it or avoid it. Sometimes you want to run towards the clean pain because feeling a lot of it is often the fastest road towards getting what you want. If you avoid the clean pain of being bad at guitar when you want to play like Jimi Hendrix, you're never gonna get any good.
