Perseverance vs. Blind Obsession - The Dripping Water Analogy [Ep 016]
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
How do you tell if you're persevering towards a worthy goal, or just being plain stubborn? 🧐
Perseverance has always been taught as a virtue. We argue that there's only a very fine line that separates a true virtue and plain ol' stupidity. Joe and Joyce gets real in this episode and dive into some raw, personal life lessons that shaped their lives. All of this stemmed from the old Chinese idiom: 水滴石穿, or "Dripping Water Wears Through Stone."
