EP. 59 The Mountains: Building Grace & Grit

Professionally Offensive

Being outdoors brings more than just sunshine and fresh air, but is the canvas for building Grit & Grace. The mountains are especially good at developing a strong spirit and mental foundation for the storms and winds we can encounter in life. The Mountain resembles many things that we encounter in our personal and professional endeavors, an environment or seemingly immovable force that can prove difficult to navigate. What you find with seasoned mountaineers is that they don't force the mountain to do anything- They work with it, not against it. The Mountain and the Market are going to be what it "is", it is our job to appreciate that and adapt to it. The better we are to build a mindset that is flexible through the storms, the better we are able to build grace for the situation and ourselves. In turn, we develop a grit that can help us overcome anything we face. Mountains (metaphorically and actually) are a great way to build grit and harness grace- So get out there.
