HOW THE BAD THINGS IN LIFE CAN MAKE FOR A GOOD STORY

Today on my morning commute, I was thinking about a great win we took last night and all the hardships we had to overcome in the past several years. I thought to myself “man if somebody was watching this on tv they would be going crazy after seeing all these rollercoaster rides” and that’s when it hit me, as cliche as it sounds it really is about the journey.

Think about how uninteresting it would be if The Flash beat every major villain in a single episode or The Godfather just showed Marlon Brando reigning supreme all day. No story is complete without drama. Even though, people strive to live without petty drama it is the dilemmas/problems that give our life story depth.

Michael Jordan didn’t come out the gate being the greatest basketball player of all time, he didn’t even make varsity squad in high school on his first attempt. Van Gogh only sold one painting in his lifetime…ONE! A major lesson I’ve learned is not to be outcome dependent, meaning being hyper focused on the results of an outcome instead of just taking it as it comes. That’s equivalent to rushing ahead to the season finale without watching any of the core episodes.

If you are wanting to rush to the “good parts” of life chances are you’re already in it, enjoy the show baby you’re going to be here for a while!
