1) If I can only stay calm & grounded when the conditions are right, my whole practice ain’t worth shit.
2) There’s no point staying in environments that no longer serve you, it’s self-sabotage.
Both ring true, but can’t possibly be? What’s the right balance here?

this is a wild guess, feel free to discard, but the way i’ve seen 1) show up in your tweets, i wonder if it’s wrapped up in an identity thing around wanting to see yourself as tough or capable? needing to prove something?

Years ago, my roommate told me that she’d expect better self-control out of someone who spends so much time in church. It hit me hard cause I felt I shoulda learned much more out of this, and only didn’t cause I’m a bad person.
In a way I might be still trying to prove her wrong
