...Uncomfortable...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"...no one can ask another to step-up or be healed. ..but one can let themselves step-up or be healed and thus offer the others what they have received... who can bestow upon another what they do not have?  ...and who can share what they deny themselves?

....so long as we believe in our heart of hearts that our capacity is limited, we'll grow more anxious and unhappy.  ..but one who trusts, who knows, who believes in our ability to expand, has no right to be anxious about anything. ..anxiety is the mark of a higher energy insecurity, a disconnect.

...we speak of stress as if it were present in the world as something that attacks us, like "an anxiety attack" as if anxiety is a combatant. ...but the stress or anxiety in our body is rarely the result of external forces or entities attacking you; but rather the result of a weakened connection or link to your true mission, reason for being, what you know, or focus on what truly matters, a gratefulness for the present... 

...believe, know, expand, cherish the opportunity to maintain presence while being uncomfortable... in life, in training, or on the race course....

...you see, you can't feel stressed and appreciative at the same time.
