Thank You To Our Partners AutoFlow, Shop Dog Marketing, InBound, Service Advisor Training, and Advanced Shop Leadership
In Our Episode Today:
Part two picks up where things get harder. Dylan talks through hitting a dangerously cold current mid swim, the hardest decision of the day, and what it actually feels like to cross a finish line on a challenge you genuinely didn’t know you could complete.
In this episode:
- Why Dylan believes everyone should attempt something each year that represents personal growth
- Recognizing that the courage to try can be its own success, even short of the goal
- Knowing the difference between being uncomfortable and being unwell
- Battling a sudden, dramatic drop in water temperature and the threat of hypothermia mid swim
- Knowing when to keep pushing and when conditions call for stopping, assessing, and asking for help
- Reaching the aid station, warming up, and facing the decision of whether to get back in the water
- How Dylan's kayak support talked him out of quitting when he wanted to walk away
- Why everyone needs someone who can remind them why they started when things get hard
- Continuing forward when you're exhausted and the finish line still isn't in sight
- Why crossing the finish line isn't the end, and why recovery is part of the challenge
- How doing hard things recalibrates your definition of hard and builds resilience for everyday life
- The importance of mentors, coaches, friends, and communities that believe in you before you believe in yourself
- Dylan's closing challenge: do hard things, challenge yourself, and build confidence by attempting what you're not sure you can do
Word of the Day: Misogi
Popularized by Michael Easter in his book "The Comfort Crisis."
He borrowed the spirit of misogi and reshaped it into a personal challenge framework with a few hard rules.
It's once a year, one monumental challenge.
It needs roughly 50/50 odds of success.
The goal isn't to impress anybody else. It's to shatter your own self-limiting beliefs and redefine what you think your personal limits actually are.
This word will need to be well in mind as you listen to this episode. Enjoy.
Sincerely,
Craig O’Neill
