Happy Monday!
We learned the 4 moves on how to Turn Adversity Into Your Advantage.
And that the 2nd part is to “Endure it.”
Enduring it requires growth.
Within this growth phase, 3 practices have helped me and will do the same for you.
The 3rd?
Embrace Feedback
Even with a guide—even with a plan—success is never a straight line.
You’ll make progress.
Then fall back.
You’ll get better.
Then get humbled.
That’s where feedback comes in.
Feedback is the mirror that shows you who you are—and who you’re becoming.
And the key to receiving feedback is this:
You must first embrace your ego.
Let it fall away.
Because defensiveness is the enemy of growth.
Here’s how I use feedback:
- I invite it—from coaches, from my team, from my mentors
- I reflect on it—from my behavior, my gut, my journal
- I normalize it—so my team knows it’s safe to tell me the truth
The shorter your feedback loop?
The faster you grow.
And the more you grow?
The more you can endure!
Adversity is Your Advantage,
