In this episode, Cheryl and Anne discuss:
- Dancing in the discomfort
- What could go wrong and what could go right
- The five P's
- Living through the mess
Key Takeaways:
- Step off the porch of your comfort zone. Normalize discomfort, dance in it!
- Don't focus only on what could go wrong, plan for those scenarios but also think about what could go right - set your mind on all the good things that'll happen if things went right.
- Understand what purpose you're trying to achieve, analyze the potential problems, plan what you're going to do, then PUNCH IT. After taking action, persevere - stay in that place until the discomfort about it is gone.
- Don't plough through life on your own, reach out to people who will support you. When thinking of a solution to a problem, instead of asking yourself what you should do, ask yourself "how else can I solve this problem?" Give yourself a lot of options.
"So often we spend so much time and effort trying to avoid being uncomfortable and we miss out on so much in life and so much possibility because of it." — Anne Bonney
