It’s humbling to start fresh, start at the bottom, from a deficit of sorts.

The key is not confusing humbling with shame.

I am not ashamed to start things anew, to have to begin from a learners position, to start behind where I want to be.

See the long game. Understand that it’s a process and a discipline. Plan accordingly.

Lots of figurative weight being shed. Doesn’t mean solutions or complete healing, but I’m very slowly feeling lighter.
