Change can be a tough thing to embrace, as we are all creatures of habit. But fortune favours the brave, and success tends to follow the people who risk that necessary change in search of growth.
In this week’s important episode, Gordon talks you through the factors that might be inhibiting your own growth, and issues a challenge that may change your entire life.
Key Takeaways
- Without change we cannot grow. Fear keeps us rooted to the spot for much of our lives. But true development only comes when we embrace the new, and move towards it.
- It’s very easy to stay in our comfort zone, as it is usually the safest place to be. But this static through-line never leads to growth.
- In martial arts, Gordon often sees schools slowly deteriorating over time, as they are not led by people with vision. They seem to be stuck in the same mindset as they were when they began.
- The constant input in our lives, whether through literature, podcasts, or even through the company we keep, is the fuel that fires our creativity, and subsequently our desire for change and growth.
- Look at the results in your own life. Look at what you achieve in business and life. Are you happy with everything? What could you change in order to make those results and achievements perfect to you.
- People can often be negatively affected by those who change and grow. It’s important to not let this negativity affect you. Embrace the fact that you are developing.
- It’s fine to ask for outside help in order to change. Identify the things that need to change, and if you need to ask for help, then do it!
