#014: Perseverance, The Journey of Resistance, & It's Not About You
Episode #014 Perseverance
We have instant access to everything we want -- food, services, retail items, books and most of all information. This makes persevering through tough times difficult because life has become convenient. Perseverance is the ability to press on and never give-up. Perseverance minimizes self-doubt and helps us become the best versions of ourselves.
Paul and Ken discuss why it is important to persevere and how Millennials can do so in our instant access society. It is about discipline and pushing through self doubt. It\u2019s about the journey getting to your goal, not just the achievement. It is about being patient and relentlessly pursuing your dreams through failure. Perseverance is this one trait that makes a leader different from his or her peers.
