165: Generate and Manifest Possibilities for Yourself! with David Wood

165: Generate and Manifest Possibilities for Yourself! with David Wood

"We want to fly safely in a way that we're not going to kill ourselves, but that we will be proud of what we've done. And the first step is generating that possibility." -David Wood

We are all afraid to take risks! That's how our reptilian brain is wired. But believe it or not, we are taking risks every single day of our lives. Crossing the street, driving your car, making decisions, and even cooking your meals- everything presents risks. In life, however, there are bigger risks we have to take to get to where we want to go. But the first step is to make sure we are taking "good" risks. Well, how do we know we are taking the right risks?

In this episode, Ted sits with David Wood, founder of Focus.CEO. Learn how you can stretch yourself and find your edge, play the bigger game, and generate possibilities for yourself. Ted and David also share mental hacks and exercises they do to "befriend" the fear of leaving your comfort zone. David also talks about his upcoming book, "The Mouse in the Room". We've heard about the elephant in the room, but what about the mouse? And what could naming it enable you to do? Sounds intriguing enough? Tune in and join the conversation!
