Episode 1776: Steve Pavlina explores how saying “yes” to seemingly impossible invitations can accelerate personal growth by stretching your identity and dissolving self-imposed limits. Rather than waiting until you feel ready, embracing these challenges in their raw form often leads to powerful transformation and new levels of clarity. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://stevepavlina.com/blog/2020/01/impossible-invitations/ Quotes to ponder: "Impossible invitations have a way of surfacing when you're ready to stretch, grow, and redefine yourself." "You don’t have to accept every impossible invitation, but at least consider what the invitation is really offering you." "Sometimes we become too reasonable and wait until we’re ready, and then the invitation passes us by." Episode references: Nonviolent Communication by Marshall B.
