The Reset

from The Optimistic Outlook with John Eades · host John Eades

My thirteen-year-old son has a goal. He wants to break 40 on nine holes of golf. Recently he had a three-foot birdie putt that would have put him in a great position to finally get there. He lined it up, stroked it, and missed. That was the moment. The moment when everything that followed depended on one thing. How quickly he could pause, reset, and move forward. "You rarely control what happens, but you can control how long you carry it." Viktor Frankl wrote about the space between stimulus and response, and how that space is where our freedom to choose lives. This episode is about training yourself to use it. 📖 Grab the book: Optimistic Outlook on Amazon
