About this episode

Avoiding stress and conflict when we’re struggling is a natural reflex for many of us. Whether it’s in our relationships, businesses, or family, avoiding stress and conflict is a common reaction. Ignoring the things we’re struggling with might help us feel better in the moment, but more often, we limit our progress in countless ways by not tackling our problems directly.

In this episode, I’m sharing the three simple steps in which you can shift your perspective on tough situations. These steps have been transformational to me in helping me beat cancer, rebuild my marriage, and regain control of my finances. By integrating them into your daily life, you’ll not only stop running from your challenges, you’ll start to see them as opportunities for growth and learning. 

The best part? With some practice, you’ll begin to view even your most challenging days as some of your best days ever. Because you chose to push forward, embracing growth over giving in to suffering and pain.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Remember: You’re not alone, so stop suffering in silence
  • Why shifting your perspective when times are tough is crucial for personal growth
  • The greater the struggle, the more glorious the triumph
  • Struggling in life is often unavoidable, but the pain is optional
  • What you don’t schedule, you don’t get done
