Did you know there is a sweet spot when it comes to growth? This is your growth edge. It's that just right place where the discomfort is there, but you are willing to experience it because you know what is waiting for you on the other side.

Some takeaways from this episode:

  • The growth edge sits between letting the brain continue seeking pleasure, avoiding pain, and using as little energy as possible (aka doing what you've always done) and setting very high, very unrealistic expectations for yourself and then getting frustrated when you don't do anything.
  • Discomfort is required for growth and finding your growth edge is a matter of finding just the right amount of discomfort that will keep you in action. Each of us will have a different growth edge - and it will change based upon the area where you are trying to grow or improve.
  • Be willing to experiment, to find your growth edge, and in those moments when you recognize you are there - when your brain thinks you can't or you just don't want to - ask yourself this powerful question "what can I do"? Listen for the answer, and whatever answer you get - take action.
