98: What If You Said Yes Without Knowing How It Would End?

What if you said yes without knowing exactly how it would work out?

It’s so easy to want a guarantee before we begin. We want to know that the job will work out, the idea will succeed, the relationship will last, the dream will happen, or the effort will be worth it.

But we can’t control the outcome.

We can control how we show up, how much effort we put in, what we learn, how we respond when things don’t go according to plan, and whether we’re willing to try again.

And sometimes, even when something doesn’t turn out the way we hoped, we still walk away with something valuable.

An experience.

A lesson.

A new skill.

A new perspective.

A story we’ll probably laugh about later. 😂

In this episode, we’re talking about what happens when we stop requiring a guarantee before we’re willing to say yes.

We’re sharing our own experience with starting Hermit Haven, what we’ve learned from putting ourselves out there without knowing where it would lead, and why course-correcting doesn’t mean you’re failing.
