Books, Battles And Perspectives
Episode description
Leaders are readers - that's the message behind this week's episode, in which Rob discusses the value of knowledge, how the act of passing it down and absorbing it through the written word is an invaluable tool in any leader's arsenal, and how perspective can lead to re-evaluation in life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Knowledge is power and we are fortunate enough to be able to learn about almost any subject by absorbing the knowledge and teachings of others.
- When we are derailed in life, it allows us an all new sense of perspective. We come to value the small things we have always taken for granted.
- Chasing security is an illusion at times. There's nothing wrong with making mistakes, as life is about challenges. In these challenges lies the hero's journey.
BEST MOMENTS
