The Book Leads – Episode 37: Brad Ritter & School of Grit: Unlock Your Potential Through Purposeful Adversity

In this episode, Brad breaks down his book and career as a coach to his client’s physical, mental, emotional, intuitional, and warrior spirits, and how it all stemmed out of a calling he felt after he had already achieved success in the traditional sense. Before Coaching others in those capacities, he sought out the hardest challenges possible to test himself and overcome.

Mentioned/Applicable Books:

  • Grit: The Power of Passion & Perseverance by Angela Duckworth
  • Relentless: From Good to Great to Unstoppable by Tim S. Grover
  • Embrace The Suck: The Navy SEAL Way to an Extraordinary Life by Brent Gleeson

Some highlights from this episode:

  • The power of asking “What’s next?” and being reborn.
  • Why getting to good enough might be better than getting to perfect.
  • How Brad crafts his definition of Grit to include perseverance, adversity, your why, and a worthy goal

The MAIN QUESTION for you, which underlies my conversation with Brad is, Beyond what you have today, what’s next?
