“Be thankful for what you have.”

We’ve all heard that before, but what if being thankful is actually keeping you from what is best? Please allow me to explain.

Life works because of tension. Light and dark. Good and evil. Pleasure and pain. I’m all for encouragement and positive reinforcement, but we can’t deny that conflict, tension, and pain are incredible motivators. Without friction between a tire and the road, your car isn’t going anywhere.

Tension is necessary to move forward. But how do we navigate that when it comes to making a change as big as our residence, relationships, and especially our vocation?

In this episode you’ll learn about the “Sadistic Selfie” -- something I used to navigate the balance between being grateful for the life I had vs. stepping into the life I really wanted.
