🌴332. The Average Person’s Guide to Getting High
Today's Work Fame article. Read it / comment over at: https://www.workfa.me/
In today’s episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my Everest Base Camp trip. And no, this isn’t a hiking podcast now. This is about what happens when you say yes to something you feel wildly unqualified for, and then get punched in the face by altitude, exhaustion and your own self-doubt.
I share the email that kicked off the whole adventure, the training and prep I underestimated, and the three reasons EBC is tougher than people think. More importantly, I unpack the six lessons I walked away with that have nothing to do with hiking and everything to do with how you lead, create and make decisions when you’re stretched past your comfort zone.
Highlights include
• why the only safe step on ice is a committed one
• how invisible “tightness” limits your performance
• the hidden wall-and-river sitting inside every “quick job”
• what happens when you can’t escape discomfort
• the real gap between what your mind says and what your body can actually do
• how fear shrinks with repetition, not reflection
If you want a raw look at resilience, capability, and what you learn when convenience disappears, this one will hit home.
