Why High Achievers Face What Others Bury

The biggest difference between high achievers and everyone else isn't talent. It's their

willingness to face what others bury.


Most people would rather live with the lie than excavate the truth. They'll argue they

want healing, but when it's time to dig down deep and find the root cause, they choose

burial over breakthrough.


Here's what I've learned: you can't heal what you won't feel.


Someone once told me, "Whatever I'm dealing with, I just bury it." They said it like it was

strength. Like being emotionally dead was something to aspire to.


But we are emotional creatures. Being emotional simply means you still have a pulse. So

you mean to tell me you buried yourself alive?


The problem isn't that we have emotions. The problem is we're trying to fix the wrong

things, focusing on the wrong stuff, replaying the wrong conversations instead of tracing

issues back to their origin.


Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is a gentle Father. When I ask Him to help me face what I've

been avoiding, I also ask Him to prepare my heart for the truth. He won't give you more

than you can handle, but He will give you exactly what you need to handle what He's

asking you to face.


High achievers understand something others don't: the pain of staying the same

eventually becomes greater than the pain of change.


The question isn't whether you're strong enough to bury it.

The question is whether you're brave enough to excavate it.


What have you been burying that God is asking you to face?
