FR#16: Be Grateful For the Grit (Lessons Learned While Painting Concrete)
Sometimes you don’t win. Sometimes you’ve got to do whatever it takes to get by.
Sometimes you have to paint concrete.
Those times it feels like your current circumstances are so far removed from where you want to be that you can’t even see the connection.
In this episode I talk about a time when I had to paint concrete in order to pay the bills and support my family.
I had no work, a head full of self doubt, and I felt like a failure. It was a really humbling time, but out of that experience came the realization that difficult seasons are inevitable, what matters is the growth we choose to do while we’re there.
If you’re going through something challenging right now, or if you’ve been through something that felt like it might break you, this episode is for you.
If you’ve been beaten down by circumstances but you just freaking KNOW that there’s more for you in life, this is for you.
If you’re trying to find MEANING in your PAIN, this is for you.
