Calm & Confident with Trina Gray

21. Choose Your Hard


Listen Later

In this episode, I apply a very simple, but profound concept of doing hard things. We explore this lesson in all areas of our life. It can be hard to choose daily actions to better ourselves and our lives – from eating healthy, to paying bills, to learning new job skills. But it can be harder to NOT do those actions. It can be harder to live the result of inaction. It can be harder to live unhealthy, financially stressed, and stuck in your career.

"Living stuck doesn't feel good. It feels more mundane. It feels like you're always beating your head against the wall. It feels like you're not growing and learning and expanding. So yes, it's hard to grow in your career, it's hard to go back to school to get the advanced degree, or it's hard to learn the new skill. It's hard to work on yourself and your communication. It's hard to work on your time management, on your efficiency, on your focus. It's hard to grow in your career, but it is a heck of a lot harder to stay stuck." - Trina Gray

Keypoints: 1. Taking daily action can be hard because no one is looking, or asking, or requiring you to grow and get better.

2. You have to want more for your own life.

3. Taking daily action can be hard because we are busy, distracted and even tired at times. 4. Ignoring or delaying the things we need to do to live a vibrant life will lead to much harder outcomes.

5. Learn the five-step process for putting the "choose your hard" mentality into your life.
