Feelings
like disappointment, embarrassment, irritation, resentment, anger,
jealousy, and fear, instead of being bad news, are actually very clear
moments that teach us where it is that we're holding back. They teach us
to perk up and lean in when we feel we'd rather collapse and back away.
They're like messengers that show us, with terrifying clarity, exactly
where we're stuck. This very moment is the perfect teacher, and, lucky
for us, it's with us wherever we are.
