Listen "#118 Claire Smith | Failing, failing and then overcoming what seems impossible"
Episode Synopsis
Extreme athlete Claire Smith discusses her incredible achievements, including being the first British person to complete a Double Deca Ironman. Claire explains how with every success there are challenges to overcome, and that the same applies within a business.
Claire emphasises the importance of breaking down what feels impossible, to show that it can be possible. Visualising the process of breaking down the “impossible”, as well as visualising things that could go wrong along the way, prepares you well for the challenges ahead. Applying this same process to business challenges, as well as keeping a positive mindset, can help improve our resilience and thus lead to greater achievements.
