A RULE FOR LIFE | Powerful Motivational Speech

"It may get worse before it gets better, but it WILL get better" - unknown

In today's episode, I'm tackling the idea that things often get worse before they get better. Every new journey begins with a dip into vulnerability and discomfort. I'm reminded of the visual of a wavy line, where each new peak is preceded by a trough, a necessary low before the high.

 This is the essence of any challenge—when you're riding the high of your current wave, it seems counterintuitive to dive into the next trough willingly. But that's the story of many greats we admire, from Walt Disney's initial failures to Steve Jobs' early struggles with Apple. They all understood that to reach new heights, they had to start from a new bottom.

It's about being willing to fight through the valleys of despair, understanding that discomfort is not weakness but a decision to grow. Embracing the idea that it always gets worse first means accepting that we are enduring the present for a better future. This episode is a reminder that the lows we face now are paving the way for the peaks ahead and that our willingness to embrace vulnerability today can lead to our greatest triumphs tomorrow.
