The Art of Adaptability: Embracing Life's Curveballs

from Growth Mindset Psychology: The Science of Self-Improvement · host Sam Webster Harris | Growth Mindset Psychology

Life has a knack for springing disasters on us at the worst moments. If we are too fixed in our thinking and planning we break, if we can learn to be adaptable we can bend with the forces of chaos and make the best of any situation. Life is short and learning to deal with the inevitable chaos with strength and positivity is an important skill to master. - - - Connect with Sam: Sam's newsletter on creativity - Explosive Thinking Watch the pod - YouTube - Growth Mindset Twitter - @samjamharris Instagram - @SamJam.zen - - - Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:11 Story 1 - Car crash 04:06 Story 2 - Sudden collapse 05:39 Story 3 - Dying 08:44 Disaster zones 12:35 Sam's conclusions for listeners Learn more about your ad choices.
