The Gift of Adversity

We're All Just Doing the Best We Can

I love listening to an enlightening and sincere conversation. I recently discovered the Tetragrammaton with Rick Rubin podcast, and it is full of incredible chats with some fascinating icons. From the Chili Peppers to Trent Reznor, these in-depth talks overflow with life lessons and nuggets of wisdom. After finishing the Tom Hanks episode yesterday, I firmly appreciated the actor and how he approaches his craft. I had no idea just how deep his love for film runs in him. Hearing him speak of Fred Rogers and the lessons he learned was so touching. I followed this up with an hour-long episode on the elliptical this morning between Rick and Will Smith. I am going to listen to it again in a few days with a notepad so I can jot down the myriad of important life lessons they discussed.
