Problems are inevitable for us in life. The thing that’s individual about them is how they present themselves. The adversity, obstacle, challenge or roadblock is going to be individualized for your current experience…
…the similarity between them all regardless of what they look like? You can overcome them and solve them.
Sometimes you’ll have to be forceful, and other times you’ll have to be like water and adapt yourself more to what’s occurring around you. This is something that this week’s guest, Bellator MMA Veteran, John Beneduce, knows better than most.
If you’re ever asking “when do I force the issue” or “when do I accept and maneuvre”, you’re going to love this episode.
2 moments you’ll love from this episode include:

Surrender. Accept. Trust
“Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face”… you’ve heard this countless times before in your life, but what does it actually look like to adopt this philosophy and put it into practice?
And not just inside the specific context of an experience, but the totality of your life? Structure and order are one side of the spectrum in life, but how well do you handle the chaos when it inevitably enters to spice your life up?
John Beneduce has an effortless way of handling this natural part of life that he’s developed over decades in MMA.
