If you’re following your heart, and you’re not breaking the law, don’t be afraid to challenge societal norms. Follow your passion when people think you should play it safe. When the crowd goes one way, you go the other. If it feels right, go with your gut.

When I found sobriety in 2013, my family wanted me to play it safe. “Do something you’re familiar with,” they said, “don’t take any risks.” It came out of both love and fear, but in reality, they were playing by societal norms.

Luckily for me, my heart was singing loud and clear. Having experienced a perspective shift in detox, I became intensely curious about the human mind. I wanted to go to college to learn about human suffering, why my own suffering disappeared, and to share these experiences with others.

My head was telling me to get a normal job, but my heart was screaming at me to follow your passion. That was nearly 7 years ago. I’ve just published my memoir, and in less than 12-months time, I’ll have completed my Ph.D.

“Don’t fear failure. Not failure, but low aim, is the crime. In great attempts, it is glorious even to fail.” — Bruce Lee

Are you afraid of failure? If so, you’re not the only one. Fear of failure prevents many people from taking action, and as a result, reduces their potential success in life.

The question is, can you succeed without failing? No, not unless mediocrity fulfills you. The best way to learn is through failure. When you fail, you learn. And when you fail big, you learn big.

You might be worried about the consequences, but the fact is, the risks will be worth it, and you can always ask for forgiveness. As a mentor of mine once told me, “Asking for forgiveness is far easier than getting permission.”

‘Obstacles do not block the path. They are the path.’ — Zen Proverb

Challenges can be used as fuel. You don’t just want fuel — you need it for growth. Instead of merely coping with life, you need to lean into adversity and use it for growth.

If you want to practice this habit, you need to focus on progress when life throws you a curveball. It doesn’t have to be a major setback — opportunities for growth are everywhere.

If you find yourself getting stressed, you can use it as an opportunity to practice non-reactivity. If you fail at something, you can use it as a chance to learn a valuable lesson. You can also use challenging relationships as a chance to practice tolerance, compassion, or even your perspective-taking skills.

Every situation is an opportunity to grow, especially challenging ones. So instead of simply trying to cope, use challenges as fuel for growth.
