Adversity, challenge, issues, problems.. If we take a beat we can recognize the power of facing, battling and overcoming these items- not just because we CAN but because we GET BETTER.  Many of your gritty, growth-minded individuals find ways to regularly lean into challenge.  Some of us find ways to inject and inflate adversities with the goal of betterment.

That's all and well, but what about when we don't want that thing? What about when it's devastating? What about when it's a tragedy.  In this episode, I heard a concept about a devastating challenge that faced someone, and how they flipped it.  It had me stop in my tracks (literally, I was on a run and had to stop to make a note to revisit it).  

Here I share it with you, as it is absolutely critical for us as first responders, high-drive doers, movers, shakers, family leaders, and on and on... to BE our best by supporting and building our mindsets and resolve.
