The Difference Between Struggling and Full Blown Failure

 In this episode some of the main things we touch on are:

• Lack of persistence creates bad failures not good ones
• Comfort creep. Learning to make difficult and discomfort a normal place to operate from
• Persistence is necessary for survival in the natural world
• Not letting disappointment override your desire to continue moving forward
• Changing your attitude to make struggling and doing hard things fun
• Physically placing yourself in difficult scenarios
• Having faith in that experiencing difficulty had net positive rewards throughout life
