Obstacles create opportunities. Everybody faces battles, curve balls, unexpected twists during their life and career journey. It is how you respond and persevere through these obstacles which matters in dictating your long-term outcomes.
In this episode, Dr. Abrutyn and Ryan discuss Dr Abrutyn's story of perseverance and passion and discuss how adversity influences growth. How does mindset play a role in response to adversity, and based on chosen mindset what are the possible outcomes of someone facing adversity?
