Tweetable Comments ”I have to go through this process, but I am in control of so much more.”  ”What if this actually goes right? What does that look like for me? And what little things can I do each day in order to come out stronger from this?” "Live your life by design instead of default. Default is: I'm gonna let this frustrating thing—someone's rejection—control my life. Design is: I'm gonna take this, use it as an opportunity, figure out what I can control, and keep going, keep showing up for something even better." "You need to be ready to fully adapt to anything—and make sure whatever you're working toward can hold up when life starts lifing.'Cause life is gonna, life is gonna be life thing at all times.”
