Breakthrough

I read online that in order to have a breakthrough you first need to hit rock bottom or somewhere close to it. To clarify it is the pulling yourself up and out of a low point in your life that leads to a breakthrough. I can see where this might come off as counter-intuitive because when your low you often find yourself alone, helpless and on the brink of giving up. I have heard it explained another way by client’s I.e.., “the final nail in the coffin.” or “the straw that broke the camel’s back.” My point being it is not a low point at all. Instead it is a spark that ignites the raging fire. The moment where you just can’t or won’t stand for another ounce of bullshit and you scream whether metaphorically or literally, “ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!”
