Get comfortable being uncomfortable. We hear this often whenever we discuss achieving something great.
Many successful executives, athletes, and entrepreneurs that I’ve had the privilege to interview, all say that they did the hard things and got out of their comfort zone, especially when others weren’t willing to do so.
And oftentimes that comes with making mistakes and at times what may seem like a failure. But it’s through these moments, whether if it’s personal growth, or launching a new tech product, that our best work comes to life.
If you’re looking for an episode where we discuss how getting out of your comfort zone, doing things that are unconventional can shape your life in ways you’ve never imagined, then this episode is for you.
