169 - So You're Saying There's A Chance?
Episode 169 is here and we are continuing our book on The Obstacle Is The Way by Ryan Holiday!
Topic: Mastering Objectivity & Perspective
In this episode, we dive into the importance of practicing objectivity, altering our perspective, and focusing on what we can control when facing obstacles.
🔹 Practicing Objectivity – We often exaggerate challenges or celebrations, letting emotions take over. Training our minds to pause, assess, and respond instead of reacting can shift our approach to obstacles.
🔹 Altering Perspective – Just like Pericles’ sailors panicked at an eclipse, we often fear what we don’t understand. By zooming out, we realize many challenges are manageable. Viktor Frankl’s wisdom reminds us that we have the power to change our mindset at any moment.
🔹 Is It Up to You? – Even with a 1% chance, effort matters. The story of Tommy John teaches us resilience—if there’s a chance, we fight. Controlling our attitude, perspective, and effort gives us the best shot at success.
Key Takeaways:
✔ Don’t give obstacles more power than they deserve.
✔ See things for what they truly are.
✔ Control what you can control.
✔ Keep trying—adjust your approach if needed.
Tune in for a powerful conversation on overcoming fear, embracing growth, and taking control of your mindset!
