E4: Moxie 101
Description
A common structure of adventure stories is called the hero’s journey.
In the hero’s journey, the hero accepts a call to adventure because she receives some form of knowledge that makes her realize accepting the call is better than refusing the call. That the perseverance before her is much better than the comfort of conformity.
The hero transforms from the confident person she was into a novice at something new. Like a baby transforming from a talented crawler into a baby that has no idea how to walk. She has chosen to persevere through the wealth of failure before her.
The hero is naturally intimidated. But she knows the two paths before her.
The path of admiring the precarious façade of the status quo
and
the path of unraveling the status quo to build a solid foundation to the future.
Like for the hero, it takes moxie to accept the call to adventure and transform into who we are meant to be.
It's time for us to get out of the sandbox and leave conformity behind.
In this episode, I’m giving you a license to moxie, like James Bond has a license to kill.
