Our hardships seem to be more monetary and intellectual now a days compared to physically in eons past. Time spent out of your comfort zone jumping the hurdles are the times when you grow the most personally for sure.
Getting there can be as simple as starting something and just deciding not to stop when you encounter an obstacle. If it is worth doing, it is probably going to be hard so you know you are in the right place if it is not easy.
Good to see you writing again man!
100%! Things that are difficult are always the most rewarding, be it physically, mentally, emotionally or intellectually!
Thank you, I'm glad to be back writing, I've missed it and I need to be better about jumping over my own hurdles so I can write more ;)
