In the high-performance world Jana and I try to play in, we know that reaching the "Summit" requires more than just grit.  It requires Atmospheric Clarity. When the finish line is in view, the pressure is at its peak, and the engine is red-lining (metaphorically speaking), is where most teams stall. They start "solo grinding" instead of "shared partnering.”  Just like in nature, when water boils, the team turns into an every person (every molecule) for himself to get over the finish line.

“The universe does not withhold your goals; it waits for you to become structurally capable of receiving them.  We are all navigating our own "Spiritual Curriculum," where our actions are merely the fruit produced by the soil of our thoughts and feelings.”
