the characteristics you want to embody? Like others have suggested, sometimes it is a question of just enduring the challenge or “toughing it out,” as you’ve implied. But sometimes there’s some learning that can take place from others who have experienced what you’re feeling that can really help. Maybe it’s a strategy, or maybe it’s just emotional encouragement. Either way, there’s a good chance that you have encountered someone that would be willing to genuinely listen to you and offer experienced advice and encouragement for what you hope to have for yourself—including this thread. Reach out brother, let this group on CB prove itself to you.
