#2705: Why You Need Pressure, Anxiety & Stress In Your Life

In this masterclass, I’ll talk about the intriguing concept of why we actually need pressure, anxiety, and stress in our lives. It's a counterintuitive idea because most of us try to avoid these feelings. However, I argue that they can be powerful motivators. Pressure, which I define as the use of persuasion, influence, or intimidation, compels us to take action, eliminating procrastination and indecision. I believe it's essential to change our default settings from "slow" and "later" to "fast" and "now" to achieve more in life. Pressure, much like how it creates diamonds, can be a catalyst for our personal and professional growth. When we're under pressure, we're forced to tap into our full potential, resulting in our best work. In the end, what matters most is achieving results, and embracing pressure can help us do just that.

Show notes:

[10:26]#1 Pressure moves you to action.

[15:26]#2 Your default setting is slow, and later, you take action way too late.

[23:42]#3 Pressure and stress make diamonds.
