    I’ve had terrible experiences throughout life . Tragedy after tragedy. Losing my mom in my late teens. Losing my older brother shortly after. Losing my close friends while in the marines. Watching my father lose everything and go bankrupt afterwards and through it all was pain. But it made me realize just how much I am capable of. “Terrible experiences poses the riddle of showing whether the person who has them is not terrible.” I realized just how much strength and courage I had, all thanks to painful and terrible experiences. I came out the other side, which again, showed me just how strong I truly was. Had it not been for those experiences, I may have not been this tough, and had this perspective on life. I take everything with a grain of salt now. And am much more calm and collected now. But that came through an enormous amount of persistence and resilience via- pain. I don’t welcome this upon anyone, it’s just a nice tool or fresh reminder that life’s tragedy doesn’t make you a tragedy in it of itself. It provides oppurtunity to grow through it.

    I was on exercise in the Australian army at Shoalwater Bay on the central Queensland coast.
    It was a defensive activity so we had to dig out fighting pits, sleeping bays, communication trenches, put up wire obstacles, go on patrol etc.
    One hot day a grass fire came through our position. We were told to stay put. The fire passed and we were all overheated and coughing from the smoke. Then it started to rain and filled up our pits, and after sunset it got windy and cold with even more rain. At the end of the Ex there was a fighting withdrawal at night and long fast march of 40km to break contact. We could only laugh.

    Negative visualization honestly was one of the biggest components of curing my anxiety. Now, when I say my anxiety is "cured" I don't mean it's gone. Anxiety is natural. I mean it no longer affects my life in the toxic way it did before. I don't ruminate on it or try to push it away.

      @@mcgritty8842 thank you! It's honestly wild to picture myself now vs. myself 10-15 years ago. I used to lie awake for hours at night having panic attacks thinking about situations both real and imagined that made me anxious. Could have been anything from something I said 10 years ago that hurt someone's feelings to the thought that someone could be trying to kill me right now and they could break in any second to get me.
      Now I just kind of accept it and let it go if it's something I can't control. "I can't control the way someone feels because of my past actions, but I can avoid repeating the same action." "Yeah, there is a miniscule possibility that someone could come in while I'm sleeping to kill me. Nothing I can do about it in that case. Time to sleep."

    The point of the “this is what I trained for” quote isn’t that EVERY moment is what you trained for-lots of moments are going to be good times to do more training, and if training is what you trained for then we are getting into some semantic silliness-it is that when moments arise in which there is a need for action (most action is not necessary) you should not cling to your books and weights to learn one more thing or do one more rep (or your covers for 5 more minutes in bed), but apply what you have and who you are to the task at hand until the task is done.
    Do you know what happens to performers who only perform and do not continue to practice? They get worse.
