Durable Dad with Tommy Geary

018: Upgrade Your Reactions


Listen Later

Have you ever considered how often you're simply reacting by default rather than on purpose? For most guys, it's close to 95% of the time. On this episode of The Durable Dad podcast, I, Tommy Geary, will guide you through the fascinating nature of our reactions, and how, with a little awareness and understanding of our thought cycle, we can learn to manage them effectively. 

Packed with insights from my business coach Dave and examples from my own clients' experiences, this episode unravels the process our brains go through when receiving information from the outside world. We all react instinctively - it's part of being human. However, certain situations call for more mindful responses. By understanding how our thoughts and emotions drive our actions, we're able to slow down and choose a more measured response to various scenarios. So, whether you're faced with a curious child's incessant questions or a heated conversation with your spouse, this podcast episode will equip you with the tools to navigate life's challenges more effectively. Tune in, as we take you one step closer to being a Durable Dad.
