Reach Your Goals Faster by Utilizing these 10 Tips
In this podcast episode, I reflect on my past podcast recordings from 2019 and discuss the concept of "choosing your struggles' ' as a proactive way of approaching life challenges. I highlighted how I recorded my entire audiobook on my phone in my closet and how I used to share deeper thoughts in private member podcasts.
I emphasize the importance of being proactive in facing challenges and how choosing your struggles can lead to personal growth and resilience. I share personal experiences, including taking parenting classes, to illustrate the benefits of actively selecting the challenges you want to tackle.
