Oh man, anxiety used to plague me. Yeah, those things are just common for us to like, that's how we operate, we try to avoid that. Yeah. You know, today I realized that even in the fear, there's like so much to be learned, there's so much progress to be made still, there's so much growth to be gained through it. Yeah. Right? But again, only through the experience and through, you know, the evidence of going through shit, learning from it, becoming a better person because of it, reflecting on it, saying, wow, that worked.

How can I become a better person? Absolutely. That could become better. Yes. You know, I don't have to be the same person anymore, I could just gradually become better.
