## Resource

For most of my life, I lived too far on the grit side of the equation. I believed effort could solve almost anything. Push harder. Do more. Keep going. Until I learned the hard way that grit without grace eventually becomes exhaustion. In this episode, I dive deeper into the philosophy behind Grace and Grit and explore why finding the balance between the two is one of the most important skills you'll ever develop. Too much grace can become avoidance. Too much grit can become self-abandonment. The sweet spot is neither fixed nor perfect. It's a practice of paying attention. Want to keep going?
