Growth Is Not Comfortable｜Good Game Podcast EP.003

Welcome to Episode 003 of the Good Game Podcast.Building on our previous discussion on failure, this episode explores the concept of growth, not as a comfortable process, but as a necessary and often challenging transformation. Drawing from Stoic philosophy and Pragmatism, the hosts discuss whether growth is about enduring hardship or actively solving problems in a structured and intentional way.From an academic perspective, the conversation also examines how scholars and students can move beyond repetitive research patterns. Topics include developing original research ideas, trusting one’s intuition before engaging deeply with existing literature, and approaching academic work with a problem-solving mindset.歡迎收聽 Good Game Podcast 第003集。延續上一集對「失敗」的討論，本集聚焦於「成長」的本質——成長並非舒適的過程，而是一段充滿挑戰且必要的轉變。節目從 **斯多葛哲學（Stoicism）與實用主義（Pragmatism）**的觀點出發，探討成長究竟是承受困境，還是主動且有策略地解決問題。在學術脈絡下，兩位主持人也進一步討論如何突破重複性的研究模式，包括：如何發展原創研究主題、在閱讀文獻前建立自身觀點，以及以問題導向的思維面對研究工作。
