Ep. 135 | How to Stop Rushing the Things Worth Building

from The Daily Ascent · host Molly Carmel

In today's episode, I'm sharing something I caught myself doing recently when a friend of mine started doing some consulting work for me - I wanted twenty years of a business absorbed immediately. And what happened when I recognized my own urgency underneath the frustration and chose to slow down instead.  Harriet Lerner writes in The Dance of Anger that change is a process, not an event, and it does not happen quickly or without anxiety and pain.  Today's episode is about trusting the process even when your urgency is telling you to push harder.  Question to carry into your day: What are you trying to rush right now that actually needs more time - and what would it feel like to trust the process instead of fighting it?  Want to chat about working together?
