Hey guys, let’s keep it real today — somebody asked me the other day: ‘What does resilience actually FEEL like?’ And I was thrown off a little bit, because that’s a fantastic and DEEP question. Because here’s one thing everyone gets wrong: We all think resilience feels and looks like a Rocky montage, slow-motion running, music, sweat dripping over us, looking heroic… right? NOPE. Resilience actually feels like absolute garbage in the moment. Straight-up messy, ugly, “why am I doing this to myself” vibes. When you’re grinding, when you’re stuck, when you’re NOT performing yet… it does NOT feel good. It feels like frustration city. And I used to hate that. I’d think to myself, ‘If I’m frustrated, I must be failing.’ But then it hit me… frustration is literally the address of the Learning Zone. Think about it: • A baby learning to walk falls 400 times…screams…then tries again. Frustrated. • You learning to drive, cook, dance, code, post on TikTok without cringing… same deal. • Me trying to hit a new PR or nail a skill on the field is usually equated to pure frustration. Frustration isn’t the sign something’s wrong. Frustration is the sign something is HAPPENING. Growth is loading… So now when I feel that tighntess in my chest, that “I’m the suckiest suck of all sucks” voice, I literally smile and go: ‘Ohhh we’re in the Learning Space, let’s go! The magic isn’t speeding through the frustration to get to the ‘performing’ side faster. The magic is how LONG you’re willing to chill in the chaos. That’s what separates the people who quit from the people who end up unstoppable. So next time you’re frustrated, don’t run from it. Give it a high five. Say: ‘Thank you for showing up — this means I’m exactly where I need to be.’ Drop a note in the comments if you’re in the Learning Space right now. And tag a friend who needs to hear that frustration is really just growth in progress. Let’s learn to embrace the the grind, not just the glory. Love your guts! — see you in the messy chaos that is performance!
