Listener Erik Lehman sent me an email yesterday.  He graciously gave me permission to share what he learned from The Public Speaker with you.

Here’s what he wrote, “Running away from stressful situations makes them more stressful. Running toward them makes one grow into a realization that these situations are not really stressful at all. They are full of excitement, disguised and misinterpreted as stress. This is nature’s way of letting us know we are about to grow as human beings, and excitement follows. The large path is the path of least resistance, take the small path! … Therein lies the secret to growth.”

Wow- awesome Eric. Well said! I am sure this will help others.

Thanks for giving us this gem!
