Summary: On this episode of the Act To Live Podcast, Scott and Jaime explore the word ‘YET.’ Adding this powerful word to our vocabulary (both when talking to others and ourselves) encourages learning, helps us to maintain engagement - especially in difficult tasks, and increases our confidence when working/interacting with challenging people. The duo talks about their own experiences using the word ‘yet’ and the ways in which this shift in mindset has led to action in various aspects of their lives.
Action Event of the Week: Think about something that you’ve always wanted to do and have not started ‘YET.’ What is the first little step you can take on your journey of action? Give it a try and see how it goes.
Join us on the next episode of the Act To Live Podcast as we explore imposter syndrome!
