Whatever Is in Your Cup Will Overflow When Life Shakes You
Shout out the Buddha line
Whatever is within your cup will overflow.
In Episode 4, life shaking the cup isn’t optional. Obstacles, challenges — sometimes the kitchen sink. What’s inside decides what spills.
Reveal, don’t invent
Life’s challenges don’t create our reactions. They reveal what’s already within us.
Filled with discipline, grit and persistence? When life shakes you, relentlessness spills. Becoming relentless doesn’t happen overnight — you develop it every day so you’re already equipped when it comes fast.
Unstoppable in your return
That’s the standard for Brick By Brick Episode 4: fill the cup wisely before the next shake. Unlock below and name what’s currently in yours.
