13. Warrior Mindset vs The Monk Mindset: Become Extraordinary In Every Scenario

"Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win." -Sun Tzu.

Hey, Dr. Ram and Chris here! Welcome back to the Unlimited Potential Show! As you already know if you listen to our show, preparation is important, right? People spend months getting ready for their wedding, their first day on the job, people spend years in school preparing for their career of choice, the list goes on.

In our culture, it seems like preparation is only applied for big moments in one’s life. What if we approached everything with that level of preparation and intentionality? Mind, body, spirit, career, family life, all of it.

This concept is why in today’s episode we are talking about the warrior mindset and the monk mindset and the importance of balancing the two. This is a concept we read about in the book The Buddha and the Badass: The Secret Spiritual Art of Succeeding at Work.

Listen in to hear our thoughts on this approach to living, how mental preparation is often more important than physical preparation, putting yourself in the mental state and mindset for success is of the utmost importance, and so much more.

PS: Today we kick off the show with some of the hardest ‘would you rather questions we have ever answered. We would love to hear your answers too, DM us on Instagram or LinkedIn! Check out the links below.
