Mindset - Success is on the Other Side of Discomfort

In this episode, Joel explains why success is on the other side of discomfort. Sharing why there is no avoiding these periods of discomfort, and how to manage them so that you benefit the most from them rather than becoming overwhelmed.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

You have to push yourself to do things that make you feel uncomfortable to be successful. It is unavoidable.Periods of success are always followed by a plateau, where you feel a bit stuck and start to doubt yourself. That type of discomfort is a part of growth.You need to address the discomfort, stress, and anxiety you are experiencing.You always need to have your why in mind, the reason you are putting yourself through discomfort.Accepting discomfort is important, but you must be careful not to push yourself too hard.Everyone has limiting beliefs, addressing them always leads to growth.It´s okay to fail, just make sure you fail quickly, then, continue moving forward.

BEST MOMENTS

‘I don't think I've ever achieved anything in business or life, that hasn't come through an element of discomfort. ´

‘News flash, business is really f**ing hard and it doesn’t get easier.’

‘If you don´t do the reps, which hurt, you won't get the success on the other side.’

‘Don´t mistake discomfort for failure.’
