Do You Know How Lobsters Grow?

 

Do you know how lobsters grow?

Until recently, I didn’t.  Why would I? 
Then, I saw an incredible, 90 second video with Dr. Abraham Twerski on this very subject.  
Since that time,  I can’t tell you how many clients I have shared this concept and video with.  
Here’s a sneak peak:  
“The stimulus for the lobster to be able to grow is that it feels uncomfortable…Times of stress, are also times that are signals for growth.  If we use adversity properly, we can grow through adversity”.
How true is this?  I know it has been for me and many of my clients. 
Check out the video here.  
How lobsters grow is a great metaphor for each of us in our lives.  Like a lobster, in order for us  to grow, we must also shed our shells.  Most times, this is hard and uncomfortable.  But without it, growth is not possible. 
I hope this has as significant an impact on you as it has had on me. 
Here’s to living a life you love!
