Embracing Uncertainty: Three Truths for Your Next Chapter
Manage episode 479638567 series 2312535
It's graduation time. Russ has three people in his expanded family getting college degrees this month. The advice Lone Rock Leadership co-founder Russ Hill would give them is no different than what he says he would share with so many of you who are trying to lead teams and companies.
• Contrary to popular belief, your college major rarely determines your career success
• Research shows intolerance of uncertainty correlates directly with higher anxiety and lower happiness
• Studies reveal each additional two hours of daily sitting increases depression risk by 27%
• Financial stability gives you freedom to make career decisions without fear
• James Dyson built 5,126 failed prototypes before creating his successful vacuum
Focus on what you can control, embrace uncertainty, and keep moving forward - physically and professionally. These principles apply whether you're graduating college or leading an executive team.
