Sharp distinction here. The shift from accumulation to availabillity is something that gets overlooked in most fitness or personal development circles. I noticed the same in my own trainng, once I stopped chasing numbers and started focusing on sustainability the whole approach changed. That reframing takes humility tho.

Agreed, and yes, it takes a lot of humility. It's a very difficult transition for many, especially if you have spent your life in accumulation mode. It can feel like a failure, or at least a lessening. It's not. Good observation.

Love it.

Probably not a coincidence, but when I wrote that line, it was also the one that stuck with me the most.
