Thank you !

We all know what it feels like to step back from something we could — and probably should — take on. That shrinking, that discouragement, that fear of failing again after past failures… that’s exactly what this episode tackles. And the tradition has a name for it: pusillanimity.

This episode runs longer than usual because we walk through two articles on the topic — what this “small-soul” mindset actually is, where it comes from, and why old disappointments make us hesitant to try again. We also look at a couple of solid remedies for rebuilding heart and confidence so you can finally step toward the good you keep avoiding.

Part 2 of 2, Question 133, Articles 1 & 2. Pusillanimity
