Can I Change?
11/06/21 • 97 min
It's only through failure, through our shortcomings, that we come to understand our limitations. Through understanding, through analysis and strength of will, we dishearten the shadow within that seeks to withhold us from greatness. In failure we recognize our mistakes, and it's that very recognition that empowers us to change. To grow. To adapt. To be better. To overcome failure is to embrace change, and therefore, to embrace brilliant possibility.
In this episode Mark and I outline the struggles of our past and identify those moments of crisis where we chose to rise up, to pursue the path leading towards the men we knew we could be, instead of falling further into our gloom and despair.

There Will Be Sacrifices, Choose Them Wisely
Growth requires change. Change requires finality. Should you wish to grow, you must accept your end. You must accept the death of the person you are, in exchange for the life of the person you could be. This truth is inescapable, just as change is inescapable. So you must choose. Do you make your sacrifices now, clear-headed and freely? Or do you leave them to chance, and bind yourself to whatever fate decrees? This episode focuses on seeking out change, on outlining our strategies for choosing our sacrifices, as wisely as we are able, so that we may avoid the death of the person we dream of becoming and instead forego the person we never wished to be.
