Perspective, inspiration, on what you can control, and your decisions.


I wanted to share a story of extreme isolation, survival and inspiration from Earnest Shackleton.

In January 1915, his ship and 27 men were stuck in the ice near Antarctica.  What they did to not only survive - and thrive is amazing.

I would suggest starting with this IMAX film, Shackleton's Antarctic Adventure. 

​Full video available on Vimeo here.

​Next up  is Learned Optimism, by Martin Seligman.

​I've talked about this many times, but control, or even the illusion of control over your situation has incredible mental and physical benefits.

In Deep Survival, Lawrence Gonzales talks about survivors staying in the moment, and making the next most critical decision they face.
​



The title for this episode comes from Warren Zevon.
