Pain doesn’t feel good, but pain is necessary. It’s the GPS for survival. It’s the guidance system that tells you that you’re off course. When you make a habit of turning painful situations into powerful execution, it all starts becoming easier.

The problem is that there are many distractions out there in order to hide the pain, but at the end of the day, the pain is still there. So the more you distract yourself, just like I have tried to do lots of time, the bigger the underlying problem gets.

We all go through pain, which is part of the human condition. There’s not much we can do about pain, except learning how to manage it, minimize it and hopefully eradicate it. But it’s easier said than done. Pain is complex and usually it carries several components and each would need to be deconstructed and healed before the pain is completely gone.

So if you’re going through pain, have gone through pain or will go through pain, when you become a pain alchemist you learn to use that uncomfortable opportunity to turn that pain into absolute power.
