The Adversity Nexus & Safety Paradox

#AdversityNexus #GrowthMindset #Leadership

I’m Dr. David Robertson, and this is "Beyond the Told," where we dive deep to uncover and challenge the narratives that shape our world.

🔍 In This Episode:

In today's episode, we discuss the "Adversity Nexus" – a cycle that describes the path from adversity to stagnation. Discover how challenges ignite a desire for change, fostering the emergence of leaders who drive growth and innovation. However, abundance can lead to complacency, eventually causing stagnation and renewing the cycle of adversity. Good things come from the bad, but bad things come from the good. Join us in understanding this phenomenon and its impact on individuals and societies alike.
