Building Resilience & Self-Awareness for Uncertain Times with Rick Alexander

Season #4 Episode #202

When you wake up each morning, your life could unfold in a thousand different and unexpected ways. Each day comes with new challenges, some of which you never could have predicted. Now, more than ever, many of us are learning to live within change we didn’t see coming. We are adapting to a new normal, which will continue to fluctuate and be reshaped with every passing day.

This week, author, podcaster, and educator Rick Alexander talks about perseverance and resilience in an ever-changing world.

“When you find yourself in a situation where the world looks profoundly different than what you thought it was going to look like, the way that you talk to yourself is going to empower or disempower you,” he says. That’s why it’s important to ask the right questions and move forward, letting go of any attachment to ideas of how things should have gone. That will open you up to focusing on how things are and learning to live life to the fullest, no matter what happens next.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Develop perseverance to stabilize within change
  • Focus on the things you can control
  • Know your limits and when you need to stop
  • Make tough decisions with a clear head
  • Let go of preconceived notions of how things should be
