Description
There are times when life requires us to have grit and to tough things out. But the hammer isn’t the only tool in our toolbox. Steve Magness, author of the book, Do Hard Things: Why We Get Resilience Wrong and the Surprising Science of Real Toughness, offers a new model for how we can respond to our struggles, stressors and discomforts. A performance scientist who coaches Olympic athletes, he challenges us to trade in our broken model of resilience, based on powering through at all cost, for one grounded in the latest science and psychology, and focused on accessing our awareness and discernment.
