What we talk about:
- This is where a good accountability partner can come into play. Or you need to really become self-honest and reflective and ask yourself important questions like
- Am I truly open to accepting change, responsibility, advice, input, criticism?
- It takes experience, perspective, and discipline to shift to a growth mindset and once you get there it’s like unlocking all the cheat codes in a video game. The possibilities are endless.
- You are going to have bad days.
- No it’s not feasible that everything is perfect like an Instagram post there will be days you will get punched in the face.
- The idea is to minimize those days or isolate the bad moments in a day and not let them ruin all 1440 minutes of your day.
- Growth and fulfillment often lie on the other side of hell
- We want to continue to grow and learn as we age.
- We want to be the best fathers, husbands, friends, teachers and coaches we can be.
- To do this it requires getting outside of a comfort zone and being reflective that good enough isn’t enough
