  • Summary

  • As humans, we tend to move away from pain and move toward pleasure. I mean, who wants to experience pain, right? Now, I'm not talking about physical pain (burning hand, cut, hit, etc), I'm talking about perceived emotional pain. The pain that you imagine will occur if you do something or fail.

    The truth is, so many valuable lessons lie in the pain. And when you brush it off and move toward pleasure, you are truly just delaying the lessons or missing them completely. Pushing down/away pain is like trying to push a beachball under water. As hard as you try, the ball will eventually come out from under the water with some force and typically smacks you in the face!!! This is exactly what happens to "pain" when we brush it off.

    You know I am a HUGE fan of the thought flow model (Episode #1 of The Mindset Architect Podcast) as; we know thoughts create feelings/emotions/energy and the model teaches us that we can change our thoughts. The emotion/feeling/energy of Pain is one that I wouldn't rush to change. Let it process and let it work through your system. Here is what I recommend doing when you experience pain:

    1 - Acknowledge it - do a "pain download each day"
    2 - Name it (fear, anger, frustration, anxiety, etc.)
    3 - Sit with it and ask yourself, why you are experiencing this pain
    4 - What positive things could the pain do (motivate you, drive you, push you)
    5 - Thank the pain - take a moment and thank yourself for allowing the experience of that pain

    Take a listen and learn how to navigate this incredibly powerful tool.
