No matter what you do, life will challenge you. Some challenges are minor, while others leave us feeling nearly broken, longing for an all-inclusive vacation.
Challenges are an essential part of life that help us grow and expand, even if it’s hard to see in the moment.
As Tony Robbins said:
“Progress equals happiness. Even if you're not where you want to be yet, if you're on the road, if you're improving, if you're making progress, you're gonna love it. You're gonna feel alive.”
Without challenges, there is no progress, whether we like it or not. In this episode, we dive into methods and techniques for dealing with these challenges.
By listening to this episode, you will learn about:
* What the superhero/Wonder Woman pose is
* How to prime yourself for a challenge
* How to face any challenge as your boldest self
* What joy can come from any challenge
* The five levels of self-talk and how to reprogram your subconscious mind
Task of the Week:
This challenge is both incredibly easy and difficult. The next time you take a shower, end it with a blast of cold water, and stand there for 30 seconds.
This is a great way to start practicing stepping out of your comfort zone without even leaving your home.
