Overcoming adversity is like death and paying taxes…
We’re all going to have to face it.
There’s no getting around adversity Creators.
It will come into your life like oxygen into your lungs…
The question then becomes…
How do you manage adversity?
One of the ways we do it is by sharing powerful resources with others…
Hint… Hint… Buttons over there ; )
After you share this episode…
We’ll get into adversity and a lot more in part 2 of my chat with Nick DiNardo…
Which leads off in a powerful story on purpose.
Here’s some of what you’ll learn about Nick and Adversity on this episode…
How purpose drove Nick’s mom to choose her kids best interest over her own
How purpose helped Nick define his own personal principles
(See below for entire list)
How does Nick help others overcome adversity?
• On his podcast, Sweet Adversity
• Through his book, The Game of Adversity
• In his mastermind group, 1 on 1 coaching, and professional speaking…
“Love as you’ll die tomorrow. Learn as you’ll live forever” – John Wooden
Nick embraces and embodies the above quote… Which is on his email signature…
And in this episode, he explains the importance of you becoming a life-long learner as well…
You’ll also learn why I stopped reading in 7th grade… And decided to use books to do calf raises…
Until it was the best of times and the worst 477 pages of time as a senior in high school.
Damn, that semester was the Dickens…
We also discuss why the most influential catalysts behind Nick’s success derive from his investment in himself.
But why doesn’t everyone embrace a growth, life-long learning mindset?
Because they don’t believe there’s a meaningful return on that investment…
Hmmmm… What do you think about that ROI?
Here’s how Nick invests in himself…
• Reading
• Hiring coaches
• Being in multiple mastermind groups
• Mentors
• And a monthly savings account just for traveling to conferences…
As Nick describes…
Handling and overcoming adversity is 90% mental
This is why Nick focuses on personal development, being a life-long learner, and continuously investing in himself.
What’s the best way to manage a growth and coaching mindset with your partner and other family members?
How will self-awareness help you overcome adversity and the day to day struggles we all face?
