The Motivation Mindset with Risa Williams: The Cost of Good - Stevon Lewis
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We often want to do big and impressive things - but do we ever stop to think about what the cost will be of actually accomplishing those things? Or even all the things we may have to give up or overcome in order to attain them? Risa Williams talks to frequent guest co-host, Stevon Lewis, about the idea of "the cost of good" and how we sometimes form unrealistic expectations about achieving our goals that make us feel frustrated in reality as we work towards them...
They discuss:
-How thinking in "extremes" can set us up for perfectionist tendencies and unattainable expectations
-How adopting a more "balanced" scaled approach can set you up to face future obstacles and frustrations in an easier way
-Why acknowledging what you're getting into before you commit can help you navigate the path ahead with more clarity
-Why we don't have to wait to do big things to feel good feelings
