In this episode we'll look at tenacity. What makes us strive for more; and more specifically, to be uncomfortable in that striving. Does doing things we don't want to do make us stronger? And how?
I talk about some of the areas from my recent experiences (and going back to my childhood) that have helped me charge forward through discomfort. We've talked a lot about how we shift our focus on a thing - for thirty years I looked at my childhood experiences through a certain lense. Once I shifted that thing it became clear that to a strong degree those experiences gave me that ability to be comfortable doing hard things.
I talk about Andrew Huberman, Ph.D, who produces a podcast called the Huberman Lab. There's a podcast episode in particular that resonated with me called How to Increase Your Willpower & Tenacity. In this episode there are many really incredible insights improving tenacity. As part of it, I talked last week about studies around the anterior mid cingulate cortex (aMCC) as an important hub in the brain that calcaulates the cost/benefit analysis if you will that are necessary for tenacity. I find it so fascinating that we're developing science around this concept that felt much more abstract before. Further, the research is also showing that when you do less in the space of "hard things", this aMCC shrinks!
I think it's fascinating new science that looks at tenacity and accomplishing hard things in a new light.
I hope you enjoy and if you feel that it was helpful, please share with others!
