Are you feeling stuck in your comfort zone and looking for encouragement to take steps towards growth? Join me as I share my journey of embracing discomfort on multiple occasions during my transition from the UK to New Zealand via Singapore and from BMW to forming my own venture, Aquilae, via Tesla. I will let you in on how stepping into the outer ring of discomfort has been a game-changer in my career and personal growth. This episode also shares advice from the insightful Morgan W McCall from the University of Southern California Marshall School of Business who exhorts us to thrust ourselves into unfamiliar territories where learning is non-negotiable and seeking help becomes necessity and from Monty Python’s John Cleese on how embracing discomfort can lead to better decision making. We delve into how the concept of the outer ring, a zone of discomfort, is a vital passage to realise our visions. If you're aiming at acquiring a new skill or nurturing a relationship, stay tuned for tips on turning discomfort into stepping stones towards your success. We wrap things up by emphasizing control of your destiny. You will discover that growth is about intentionally stepping out of your comfort zone, embracing risks, and acknowledging the potential of failure. A journey to our goals is never a walk in the park, it's a path strewn with challenges we must conquer. So, let's redefine discomfort and expand your horizons together!
