"He who has always spared himself much will in the end become sickly of so much consideration. Praised be what hardens!"

~ Friedrich Nietzsche, 19th century German philosopher from Thus Spoke Zarathustra: A Book for All and None

In other words, Push yourself! That's when we grow.

Find your edge. And push it.

Embrace the challenges life throws at us.

Rumi says it beautifully: "This discipline and rough treatment are a furnace to extract the silver from the dross. This testing purifies the gold by boiling the scum away."

Here's to challenging ourselves and boiling the scum away!

Praised be what hardens!!
