When a Solution is Absent, Build it Yourself

from Only Human – News, Analysis, and Insights from the World of Human Performance · host Dr. Tony Kern

Does your fear of failure have its basis in reality or is it actually a resistance to the unknown? In this week’s episode of the Only Human with Dr. Tony Kern podcast, we explore forging new paths through the wilderness of undiscovered ideas. Almost everyone has experienced looking for a tool, a service, a group, a book, or something else only to find it doesn’t seem to exist. When this happens, most of us simply give up—though a few might take the initiative to build the solutions for ourselves. While this takes courage to begin and tenacity to see through to the end, the results might just lead to the next game-changing invention, best-selling book series, or billion-dollar business venture. There’s only one way to find out.
