Failure mode: Avoid the trap of 'pre-gaming' too much and missing the actual moments of growth and recording
Main idea: Spiritual resilience is found by looking for small, daily miracles rather than waiting for massive financial shifts
Practical takeaway: When facing major life transitions like moving, use a trial period to assess impact before making permanent decisions
