Yes.

As opposed to just looking at how much is left to go.

Totally.

If you just look at the top and you go, oh God, that flag is so high.

Oh my gosh, there's so many, you know, there's such a steep climb.

But if you look back and go,

How did I get halfway up here?

That didn't take that long.

Oh, okay, I've done half.

Okay, I've got another.

And it's just so fascinating to me that we haven't been trained to do that, to actually acknowledge.

And I say that to everyone when I'm speaking on stage sometimes and I'm working with someone in the audience who's having a really tough time with this.

Something I like to remind everyone is each and every one of you have been through something really difficult.

Each and every person has been through a...

Extreme pain, whether it was the loss of a loved one, the divorce of family members, a breakup, the loss of a dream.

Everyone, there is no human on the planet who hasn't been through something that for them was exceptionally difficult.

and you're still here and you survived.

And maybe you've even fallen in love again and have an amazing job and have found kindness and grace within yourself.

And if you don't look at that as a monument and as a marker,

of how far you've come, nothing will ever fill that.
