Seven of Nine (character on Star Trek Voyager) said it best…
- Resistance is futile
- “Futile” – Def.: Incapable of producing any useful result; pointless.
Key Concept:
- It’s not that you can’t resist
- Rather resistance prevents you from growing, progressing, improving
- Resistance is your mind’s way of keeping you at status quo.
James Clear Ideas:
- A quality that leads to improvement…
- “The humility to kill your favorite ideas when you learn something new”
- “The humility to kill your favorite ideas when you learn something new”
Pay Attention To:
- Intellectual disagreement vs Emotional Defensiveness
- Intellectual disagreement does not equal resistance
- Emotional Defensiveness indicates resistance & a potential area for growth
Practice, practice, practice:
- Recognize that resistance comes from you, NOT the idea
- Courage is needed to explore resistance
- Tremendous growth is possible!
