The Risk Factor Doing Hard-Best

Welcome to today's episode of BL NK P ges! In this episode, and I want to dive into the concept of doing hard things. To me, doing the hard best is about deliberately engaging in challenging activities for growth, learning, and leadership. I stress the importance of taking risks and embracing uncertainty as a way to experience eustress, which is the positive stress that comes from challenging oneself. I explore how risk-taking plays a crucial role in relationships and highlight the advantages of doing the hard best, such as leading in innovation, understanding deeper truths, developing wisdom, and forging stronger relationships.Key Takeaways:Doing hard things is essential for personal growth, innovation, and deeper understanding.Taking risks and embracing uncertainty can lead to eustress, which is positive stress that promotes personal development and success.Eustress arises from challenging oneself in situations that are perceived as achievable and opportunities for growth.Cultivating a positive mindset, setting achievable challenges, having control and autonomy, creating a supportive environment, maintaining physical and mental preparedness, and practicing mindfulness and stress management are ways to foster eustress.Doing the hard best in relationships can lead to deeper connections and stronger bonds.Lastly, but of no less importance, I'm thrilled to announce the release of my first book, 'Flit Learns to Fly'!
