When life serves up a terminal diagnosis or a career-altering shift, most people search for a way out. Tom LeNoble searches for the lesson.
From growing up in a Florida shack to becoming employee #57 at Facebook, Tom’s journey is a masterclass in risk, renewal, and the art of “living fully while Dying”.
In this episode of Real Things Living, Tom discusses how to treat resilience as a muscle and why he considers himself a “clinical trial of one” after 14 years of living with metastatic Cancer.
3 Key Takeaways:
(1) Resilience is your greatest currency. The stock market can crash, you can lose your title or your home — but no one can ever take your resilience away from you. Treat it like a muscle and train it.
(2) Embrace Terrible Gifts: Difficult experiences like illness or loss often yield a “gift” over time, such as a new perspective or a solution that helps others.
(3) Be here now. Don’t live in the past hoping for a do-over, or in the future fearing what might come. The magic of life is happening right now.
