How personal growth and business success often require a level of discomfort. As prolific artist Jean Cocteau once said: “You have comfort. You don’t have luxury. Don’t tell me money plays a part. The luxury I advocate has nothing to do with money. It is the reward of those who have no fear of discomfort”.
In this revealing episode, Chris and Gary discuss their own personal experiences of discomfort, sacrificing their own comforts in the business world in order to progress and further their self potential. To exemplify and unravel this idea, Chris discusses his fear of public speaking – “i’m the quiet guy at back of the room”. How does Chris overcome this fear, through a small level of discomfort!
In addition, the SERVICE DRIVE gurus discuss the book Code to Joy: The Four-Step Solution to Unlocking Your Natural State of Happiness by George Pratt and Peter T. Lambrou. This book combines six decades of clinical experience with cutting-edge research. It looks at how two acclaimed leaders in the field of psychology have developed a revolutionary approach to happiness—one that’s accessible and practical enough to apply at home, yet powerful enough to create a profoundly positive transformation in our lives. How is this book and understanding mindset not only an essential part of business success, but a key component in personal development? Why is the book so relevant to business leaders and more specifically the Service Drive?
