2 LEANING INTO AND LOVING THE JOURNEY

In choosing a values and virtues driven, character enhancing

way of being - it becomes less about the destination and so

much more about leaning into my HEROIC journey. An

adventure with quests, challenges, courage, antifragile

confidence and response-ability.

Life isn't neat - well mine isn't! It is gloriously messy, squiggly,

throws curveballs and can be a bit of a rollercoaster. I learned

to embrace the twists and turns and navigate whatever

comes - it is what it is - and I make the most of it!

To thrive you need more than GRIT or resilience. You need

ENERGY to flourish or thrive. Notice, I do not say survive - the

bottom of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is not aspirational - it

is part of the journey but certainly not the end game.

We can all live our own adventurous Heroes Journey. HEROIC

is about cultvating the warrior mindset for that journey, how

you prepare; and how you deal with and learn from the

inevitable challenges that come your way. Always in owner

not victim mode.

I learned through experience that the more you have to deal

with - the stronger you get. Rather than avoiding those

challenges - I trust my HERO and step right in!

Because OMMS are fuel for growth
