Chapter 01

Your Journey Begins

How We Got Here and Our Challenges

Before you read

Kevin poses these at the start of the chapter, deliberately before his own argument. Answer them first if you can.

1
Which is more important to you, the journey or the destination? Why do you think that is?
2
What do you think it says about someone when they ask for help?
3
What does it say differently about them if they refuse to ask for or even accept help?

Kevin’s own distillation, in his words — not a summary written for him.

We all have superpowers that can help us live our best lives while making us stronger and more resilient.
We can’t live our best lives or be the best versions of ourselves without being part of a supportive community.
Living our best life requires discovering, exploring, and applying existing tools in new ways to build personal strength, resilience, and adaptability.
Asking for and accepting help is a sign of courage and strength; it strengthens relationships and gives others a chance to grow stronger.
We all leave an imprint on others, and we can choose what imprint to leave.
