Hi guys, welcome to class three of our online course. The five the five limits and beyond the library. So this is class three, we're going to look at adversity and the things that impact us in our life. So what is adversity? How do we define adversity? adversity, these are the external forces that impact your experience and change how you feel negatively.

So you can be feeling really good. Things are going well, adversity impacts you, and suddenly you don't feel so great, right? And then we get into resistance of those feelings. And that's what starts to create this stress, anxiety. And over time was describing leads to depression. And adversity can impact us in in in ways that are really obvious, but also in ways that we don't notice that's happening daily.

There are five core areas of the adversity that I find that we all have to face. The first one is around money. A big one for a lot of people that I that I work with money impacts them all the time, they don't have enough money that some people even have too much money and responsibility that comes with all that. And just trying to figure out how to get more money so that life can be a bit easier for them. relationships, being one, if you're in a relationship in an intimate relationship, they can impact you daily, you know, those people in your life probably in your work that you have to deal with that are, you know, the best people to deal with every day and you know, they impact you. If you're a parent, you got kids, amazing kids, you love them to death.

And I create a lot of stress in your life. Right. family as well, you know, made a lot of people that have chaotic family, relationships, parents, brothers and sisters, extended family. All that sort of impacting us friends as well. So hopefully our friends a big positive influence in our life, but sometimes they can impact us negatively. Korea is another big one.

You know, we can be increases that we don't like. We feel trapped in countries that don't really satisfy us. careers that are really odd that are very demanding. And we create a lot of stress. You know, work with entrepreneurs that build really successful companies. And they say to me, you know, I've got the dream life on the outside but running a company, always employees and amazing clients.

Takes a lot out of them. It's not a nine to five job that they can just figure it out after they go home at work, it's with them seven days a week, 24 hours a day. Health and our body now the major one that we all have to face sometimes our bodies don't work the way they're supposed to. As we get older they don't work as well. Little health issues start to come up you know, maybe we don't eat well, maybe we you know, we abuse our bodies and it creates problems in our life. Example about from my life, you know, I go through these phases where I have really chronic insomnia and that has a massive impact on my health but that has a flow on effects always other areas money relationships, career, and sex, sex and sexuality.

My relationship to my body and how much energy I have definitely affects sex and sexuality must be a big career for many people. You know, we're very insecure about our sexuality. A lot of us a lot of us have a lot of guilt and shame around sexuality. A lot of people unfortunately have a lot of trauma around this sexuality creates a lot of issues for people. So those are the five core areas. how it looks in reality, these five areas, we don't have enough money.

Money comes in, maybe more money comes in, and it creates a lot of responsibilities and problems. And relationships break down. creatives don't move as fast as we want them to or we get bored. You know, like I was saying, I've always weighed down we don't like them. I take them all work to stay functional or to look like you Ideal sexuality, we can express it the way we want to, you know, if we, if we're lucky to be in a relationship, maybe we stop having sex, maybe we get bored of the sex. Or maybe it's not the kind of sex that we want.

Or, you know, for another relationship and you know, people go through phases where they don't have sex at all for many years. That has a big impact on them as well. And that'll lead to the trap is going to be the topic of our next class. So tune in
