How do you know when to persevere through a rough patch—and when to give up entirely? And if you do decide to push through, what are the most effective tools to bolster your resilience and get you through to the other side? That's what we're breaking down on today's episode. We'll help you recognize when to continue striving despite setbacks and when it's wiser to avoid the sunk cost fallacy, stop, and pivot. Plus: we'll get into what we get wrong about quitting in today's world more generally. Then, we'll walk you through tips and strategies to build your grit: when to zoom in vs. zoom out, how take the next play mentality, and where you can employ frameworks like "strategic laziness" or H-A-L-T.
