Why I Do Hard Things


Let’s dive into the value of tackling tough challenges to develop mental strength and resilience. Drawing from my experiences in endurance sports like long-distance triathlons, ultra-distance running, and walking events, I explore the transformative effect of pushing yourself beyond your comfort zone.

Why go through the struggle? Each time you endure, you tap into reserves of strength and resilience that serve far beyond the race or event. Facing these challenges doesn’t just strengthen the body but also sharpens the mind. In difficult moments, your determination and mental toughness increase, offering tools that apply to both personal and professional settings.

Doing hard things is an exercise in focus and self-discovery. You come to understand that your limits are often self-imposed and that the mind can drive you farther than you may have thought possible. Tune in to discover why building resilience through physical endurance can be a game-changer for approaching daily life and professional goals.
