Episode #71: The Push and Pull of Life

from Finding Your Endurance Mindset · host Jennifer Vollmann

Building a life takes two things: pushing hard for what you want, and staying open to the pull toward something you couldn't have imagined on your own.The push is defensible. Everyone understands commitment and hard work. The pull is less obvious, and it leads somewhere bigger than what your own imagination can come up with. The work is knowing which one the moment is asking for.In this episode:The gap that opens up when you keep pushing toward something you chose five or twenty years agoWhy the push is so hard to quit, and why everyone around you will support you doing itLimbo, and why sitting in the middle feels safe and drains everything out of youHow to tell a real pull from something you only think you should be pulled toWhy the chaos in your brain has to get quiet before you can hear anything underneath itGetting comfortable being unsettled, because that's the actual mindset workChange isn't a one-time event you get through and never repeat. The dance goes both directions, sometimes at the same time.Free Resources:The Autopilot Reset: https://findingyoursuccess.com/A free tool to help you see the patterns running your decisions and start choosing differently.Mindset Hacks: https://join.findingendurance.com/mindsethacks7 Simple tools to shift your thinking fast!Mindset Coaching / Finding Success: https://findingyoursuccess.com/Athlete Mindset Coaching: https://www.findingendurance.com/triathlon-coachingTriathlon / Single Sport Coaching: https://www.findingendurance.com/triathlon-coachingInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jennifervollmann/
