Episode 127: Learning to Tolerate Risk Pt. 1: Security Needs


Listen Later

Life is risky. Nothing is guaranteed, and regardless of where you are, you're going to take your punches. Learning how to navigate the risk that comes from living life, and even more, learning how to tolerate the risks that come when leading a team, is vital to your success. So vital, in fact, that this episode is part one of a three part series on risk. This week is all about understanding yourself and your security need; needs that focus on protecting you from the risks of life. Specifically I'll discuss:

This discussion will help you to:

1. Understand your needs for both security and growth

  • This understanding brings awareness about your risk tolerance
  • Clarity about why some decisions will never fit for you
  • And compassion for both yourself and others when it comes to facing down fears
  •  2. Better understand your security needs

  • But the way we cope with them and try to get them met can either help us or hinder us
  • I hope you'll join me for the next two episodes as well when I discuss growth needs as well as finding a balance between security needs and growth needs.
