The only way out of suffering, as Robert Frost said, is through it. We don’t run away from the bull, we take it by the horns. Because ultimately, we perform at our best when we’re not suffering, so we all have a vested interest in committing to a journey of self-discovery, no matter how challenging or uncomfortable it makes us.
The Mindful Athlete
George Mumford and Phil Jackson

The Inner Game of Tennis
W. Timothy Gallwey
The avoidance of our mortal, transient condition is pathological. To be mindful of our fragile fate each day, in a non-morbid acknowledgement, helps us remember what is important in our life and what is not, what matters, really, and what does not. It has been my experience that those who handle aging and mortality least well are those who fear that they have not been in this life, that they have not been here, that they have not lived the life they were called to live. ~ Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life, p. 209
