Pain as Energy

its_never_too_late_cover_480The truth is that turning our pain into energy for good can be one of the great assets of age. We can draw on stores of experience— and heal our wounds— as we work to create the life we want.

Task: Pain as Energy
Pain does use our energy, but we can consciously channel it toward productive and positive action if we are willing to look at our options with fresh eyes. Writing very quickly, so as not to censor yourself, fill in the following:

The truth is, I’m frustrated by...
The truth is, I’m frustrated by...
The truth is, I’m frustrated by...
The truth is, I’m frustrated by...
The truth is, I’m frustrated by...

Now, take the energy you have just uncovered and use it toward a creative act.
