Today, we're talking about something that every person experiences in their lifetime, but not everyone knows how to deal with it. We're talking about discouragement. In today's episode, John Maxwell teaches how to strengthen your resilience by understanding the best practices for dealing with discouragement.

Then, after John's lesson, Mark Cole and Traci Morrow talk about how we've learned to deal with discouragement in our own lives and leadership. As a leader, it's inevitable that you'll face difficult times. But it's important to remember that these moments are opportunities to learn and grow. Don't let discouragement slow you down. Take the initiative and find ways to push through the struggles together with us on the Maxwell Leadership Podcast.
