We often lose perspective of just how good everyday life is until it’s taken away and we’re dealing with something unexpected. 

It can happen to us at any moment, any time.

So before that happens, open your eyes to see just how good life is, even in the difficulty. It’s not easy—yet what we’re dealing with now will soon be a memory; take a moment to look around and just be in it.

Gregory and Vincent are both undergoing significant changes in life, changes that are both exciting and demanding.

On this episode, they discuss the importance of documenting life in the highs and the lows, for the highs serve as reminders of the good times, yet documenting life in the lows reminds us just how much we’ve made it through. 

In this conversation, Vincent and Gregory also discuss various strategies for dealing with personal challenges and overwhelming emotions.

Timing will never be perfect to do what we're meant to do in life, what we know in our hearts we must. Yet action begets action; when we begin, things fall into place, not the other way around.

They explore the concept of departmentalizing thoughts and emotions, finding outlets during the seasons of life which we just can’t handle, and learning to handle intense emotions.
