Ep. 46 "It's a Cold, Dark, and Isolating World." Keegan Schaefer's False Narrative

Narrative Podcast

When you grow up in abuse, neglect, and abandonment, it's easy to draw the conclusion Keegan Schaefer did. Keegan shared just a few of the injustices he suffered, as little as 2 years old. When he was 12 years old he weighed the pros and cons of continuing his Ritalin medication. It was one of the best decisions Keegan has made in his life. Keegan has since used his adversity to understand human behavior and the power we hold in making decisions in our lives.

He shed light on how life was 6 generations ago and how our evolution through war, men working outside of the city they live in, and the Industrial Revolution, that life has really changed. In life, through watching the people that care for us, we draw three conclusions. And by age 18 we have confirmed these conclusions that we then use for the rest of our lives.

1. We draw conclusions about ourselves
2. We draw conclusions about others or groups at large
3. We draw conclusions about life at large

Now, Keegan encourages others to face adversity head-on! Listen as he explains where the American family has been, where we are now, and how to be thankful for adversity and grow. How can you be showing up as your best in your priorities so you can serve your mission?

"This too shall pass" (for the great times or for the bad times)

"You can have the best boat, the best crew, and best captain on the entire ocean, but without a destination, you are just going to float aimlessly!" -Arnold Schwarzenegger

Three questions Coach Keeg uses and encourages others to ask themselves when faced with adversity.

1. What is the lesson?

2. What is the opportunity?

3. How can I use this to help others?
