Understanding the Discomfort And Growth Mindset

Hi All! We often try, sometime very hard, to avoid situations which are mentally and emotionally uncomfortable, and sometimes this is a useful approach. In this video though, I am going to walk you through another way to think about this type of situation and the underlying importance of being willing to accept such situations and the gifts they offer you. You have engaged in situation like this before, perhaps you just did not recognize this important aspect of who you are and what that means.
