# Chapter 334

Another crazy intense trip in the books. Lots accomplished and lots completed and lots of fun along the way. Plenty of disappointments as well. This is life and what are you taking away from this? You can grow from this, or you can cringe from this, or you can mold from this. Growth is the healthy one on my opinion. Take the wins and enjoy them. Plan for more in the future. Minimize the negatives as much as you can and learn from them. Rinse. Repeat. Love life. This is clearly the way to go.

But far too often we focus on the negatives and we spend our time cringing. Waiting for next shoe to drop, the next thing to happen, looking for trouble and finding it. Wishing for more wins, but often failing to take action and make them happen. In this all too common scenario the negatives are the focus, the wins barely felt, planning revolves around negatives. Far too much of this going on.

And then you can just mold. Keep things emotionally dark and rainy and decide that action is pointless so you take none. You just sit there and mold. You dig your roots in to doing nothing and this becomes your normal. It is a difficult place to break free from and gain some traction. The longer you are here, the more strength this place has over you. It is an easy place to come to and a difficult one to leave.

Just stay away from cringe and mold positions in life. They are blood-sucking parasites that give little in return for all that they take and demand. Be healthy, choose healthy, stay healthy.
