What if the very things people criticize about you are actually the traits designed to protect you and push you higher?
Show Notes: In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor challenges the way we view our "thorns." Society often demonizes the qualities people say we're "too much" of—too competitive, too passionate, too talkative—but in reality, those traits can serve as both protection and growth drivers.
Drawing from his research for No One Prays for the Lion, Baylor explains the real purpose of thorns on roses: they protect the plant and help it climb higher. He then connects this to our personal lives—your "thorns" are not flaws, but strategic assets. The key is learning how to sharpen them, channel them, and use them to both safeguard your progress and propel you to new levels.
What You'll Learn in This Episode:
Why the traits you've been criticized for may be your biggest strengths
How to identify and embrace your personal "thorns"
The two purposes of your thorns: protection and growth
How to reframe negative labels into powerful tools for success
Practical ways to sharpen and channel your thorns for resilience and progress
Featured Quote: "When people say you're 'too much,' they're really pointing out the very thing that will protect you and help you grow."
