#10 - The Art of Conquering Obstacles
Episode #10 - The Art of Conquering Obstacles: We all face challenges in life—negative roadblocks, unexpected shots— obstacles, and hurdles that seem like they're designed to bring us down.
Those moments when everything is smooth sailing, and then, out of nowhere, life slaps you in the face with a challenge you never saw coming. For many, this becomes a paralyzing moment, leaving us confused, frustrated, and sometimes scared.
Here's the deal:
In this podcast, I'm going to teach you how to flip the switch in these moments...
And turn negative situations into positive ones.
In Three Simple Steps!
There's a secret formula for success and working through obstacles.
In the book "The Obstacle Is the Way," Ryan Holiday introduces three disciplines...
Perception
Action
And Will Power
Perception is how you see and understand what’s happening around you.
How you view conflict and chaos.
And what meaning you assign to it.
It’s the power to separate the FACTS from the STORIES.
It's essential to use curiosity as our guide here. You only add to your troubles if you react emotionally, irrationally, or shortsightedly. You might solve the problem momentarily, But you’ve only created a bigger problem for the future.
The trick? Stay curious.
Curiosity is the solution to emotional challenges. It gives you Clarity in real time, not tomorrow,
Action, Marcus Aurelius said, “The impediment of action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way."
How you deal with the problem becomes the problem… or the solution.
Action without Drama is about two words...
WHAT & HOW
What you're going to do and how you're going to do it.
Willpower is the byproduct of curiosity and action.
Will Power is... controlling your emotions, shifting your perspective, and trusting the process.
This is where all your training, all your past battles, come into play.
Do you think those tough times were for nothing?
They were preparing you for this moment.
So now it’s up to you to Build your inner strength.
Flip the switch when you deal with obstacles.
Focus on the process.
