Today’s One Thing is a quote I’m pondering by Maya Lin about the importance of resistance in life.
To fly, we have to have resistance. –Maya Lin
I have random quotes at the top of my daily notes app, Obsidian, and today, this quote by May Lin came up.
“To fly, we have to have resistance.” It’s a reminder that resistance isn’t just an obstacle but a necessity for growth.
In life and business, we often encounter resistance when trying new things or innovative ideas. It’s easy to think of this resistance as a deterrent.
Sometimes, flowers bloom in impossible places.
However, like the aerodynamic resistance that enables flight, our challenges can lift us up and propel us forward, honing our resolve and helping us refine our strategies. Each encounter with resistance is an opportunity to rise above, learn, and improve.
Embracing resistance, understanding its value, and utilizing it as a catalyst for growth is a critical element in our personal and professional growth journey.
It’s through the lens of resistance that we can truly gauge our potential and the heights we can attain. As we navigate through the friction of life, we’re not just enduring; we’re evolving, soaring towards better versions of ourselves.
Thank you for reading. Embrace the resistance you encounter today; it’s nudging you towards a stronger you and will help you fly.
That's all for today. Until next time, the pursuit of better never stops. Keep striving, keep thriving.✌️
