00:00:00.000 I had a friend growing up, they got divorced.
00:00:02.060 And at the time, I knew it was painful,
00:00:03.880 but I also said,
00:00:04.820 this could be one of the biggest blessings in disguise
00:00:07.320 if you choose to use it.
00:00:09.140 In that moment, he could have pulled out a white piece of paper
00:00:12.040 and decide what his new life was gonna look like.
00:00:14.520 He didn't have kids, he could have traveled,
00:00:16.520 he could have went to a new city,
00:00:17.720 he could have took up a new profession.
00:00:19.160 But instead, he ruminated around the pain
00:00:22.000 and the story he was telling himself
00:00:23.500 and the failure that he felt he was,
00:00:25.060 and that stopped him from using that as a catapult
00:00:27.440 to becoming a new version of himself.
