NOTE: There is a discussion around spotting the signs of someone who may be suicidal. This was a positive experience where this question led to a supportive conversation. In this episode, we got to hear an incredibly important moment where Tofe felt confident enough to ask a friend if they were thinking of suicide. He put it down to coincidence at the time, good timing. However, with his new knowledge, he quickly realised that the warning signs were there and had been for a while, he just was unaware of the warning signs. This flashback is taken from episode 11. In this flashback you'll hear: (00:19) - How having the training from the Mental Health First Aid course helped in a real situation. (02:00) - Gaining the knowledge and awareness gives you the knowledge and awareness that questions NEED to be asked. (02:45) - Conflict has the ability to just be a conversation (03:20) - The benefits of starting a conversation We would love to hear your feedback and thoughts on this topic.

We like to get along at home and in the workplace. We don't want to offend anyone. Many view harmony, cohesiveness, and agreement as the building blocks for a great work culture, effective decision-making, and creativity. But they are wrong. Professor Charlan Nemeth, the world's leading expert on dissent, uses 35 years of research to show us why we need rebels. She explains how people with minority opinions need space to express themselves with no compromise. This is a show for the rebels. Why was this book deeply personal for Professor Nemeth? How far back can Professor Nemeth remember conforming being part of her conscious thinking? Was there a moment when Professor Nemeth thought “why is it like this?” What is the real danger of consensus? Do we carry false beliefs around conflict? The value of dissent does not lie in its correctness. So where does it lie? We argue with dissenters; we question their motives, is this where authentic dissension is important? Do true authentic dissenters, dissent within themselves as well as externally? Why are there so many people in meetings around the world who want to speak up, but won't? Why does the majority always rule? Do we need the leader to provide protection, to create a safe house for dissension? Is there a difference between dissension and being a dissenter? The danger with the majority is that they fail to see the bend in the road. We explain. The original rules of brainstorming say, defer judgement. Does Professor Nemeth agree?

To some, he's known as "that kid" who ran an ultramarathon down the slopes of Mt Everest. However, to most, he's known as one of the world's youngest thought leaders on Practical Resilience and developing a Peak Performance Mindset.Tofe Evans has completed over 60+ endurance events and when asked: "Why do you put your body through such torture?" he, with a smile, responds with "It can't be any more painful than what I have had to overcome." Tofe understands what it means to fight through adversity after barely making it out of his early twenties with his life. It was a losing battle for Tofe as depression and anxiety fuelled by drugs and alcohol abuse became a staple of his early life. After a terrifyingly close call, Tofe figured out how to channel all of his pain, anguish, and despair into a back-to-back series of insane physical challenges that many would consider impossible.In 2018, he released his first book 'Everyone Has A Plan Until Sh!t Hits The Fan,' which instantly became a bestseller and saw him travel around the world to speak at international conferences including SXSW.In just a few short years, Tofe went from his absolute lowest point in life to share and teach his methods for developing an UNBREAKABLE mindset.

Dave Lukas, The Misfit Entrepreneur_Breakthrough Entrepreneurship
This week’s Misfit Entrepreneur is Tofe Evans. Tofe’s story is incredible. First off, he wrote the runaway best-seller, Everyone Has a Plan Until Shit Hits the Fan – if that tells you anything. But, Tofe has been to hell and back and what he has learned about life, resilience, and the human spirit is remarkable. Tofe came back from literally almost losing his life. He dedicated everything to teaching people what he has learned and raising awareness for various causes. Tofe pushes every limit and boundary he can find through being a top endurance athlete. In fact, he completed over 40 endurance events in one year just to raise awareness for cancer research, as well as a 60-kilometer ultramarathon on Mt. Everest – yes, that mt. Everest, for Cystic Fibrosis. As he says, he is on a mission to help transform those who are feeling week or worthless into warriors and I can’t wait for him his to share everything he’s got for you today. Word to the wise, this will be a raw unfiltered episode, because that is who Tofe is, so get ready for a wild ride! www.tofe-evans.com Tofe’s journey started when he was a kid and fell in love with traveling. He tried a number of businesses to fund the life he wanted – but he failed and it wore on him to the point where adversity seemed to be his normal state of life. He started to become something different, self-destructive. He would put on masks, so people didn’t see what he really was, but it didn’t work. He became a terrible person to people. He finally couldn’t take the loneliness and disconnect from being human and even attempted to kill himself by taking enough drugs where he thought her would overdose. For some reason, it didn’t work. He had to get help to work on his mental health. And in starting to open up and going through the process of re-finding himself, he started to learn how adversity could be a blessing and how he could use it to fuel his recovery. He also started to self-educate and that is when he came up with the idea that he would run his first marathon. For him, once he made the decision, he realized that it was like life super condensed. Training and do the race was a great metaphor for life. At the 9:30 mark, Tofe shares how a marathon is a great metaphor for life. After completing the marathon. He was hooked and asked the question “How can we make a difference through doing this?” So, he connected with a friend and they started on a journey where they did over 40 different events in one year to raise money for various causes. After everything you’ve been through and done, what have you found that matters most? The fundamentals of life: Food, water, shelter, family Family can be your close friends and family, your inner circle At the 11 min mark, Tofe talks about the differences he has noticed between developing countries and first world countries. The people are very poor so they focus on the fundamentals In 1st world countries, we have everything so easily accessible, which makes us shy away from adversity and not embrace it and use it to better ourselves as human beings People won’t remember you for the material items, but for the impact you bring Ask anyone who’s run a marathon, they don’t care what kind of food they have after, even it’s just banana. They really care what kind of bed they have if they have a place to rest. The fundamentals are what matter when they strip everything away. Explain Adversity x Mindset x Gratitude It’s the Practical Resilience Framework. Once you have all 3 working in play, it gives an exponential effect. It starts with adversity of any kind. It is the fuel that is needed to grow. It teaches you how to have a “6 pack mind” as a 6-pack mind is much better to have than a 6-pack body. Overcoming adversity teaches you a mindset of grit and how to push through your limitation. Once you’ve been through things and have had the experience both good and bad, you feel the gratitude and are more likely to give back and help others. We are made of the same elements (carbon, water, etc.) and the average human uses only 1/20 of the their potential. We are destined to be far greater than we realize. “You can’t compare yourself to others. Comparing is a cancer.” What have you learned about the capabilities of the human spirit… It comes down to compassion and empathy You truly understand the value of something when it is taken away from you The human spirit relays back to community and family. How can people practice practical resilience in their lives? Listen at the 25 min mark as Tofe goes into more detail on the items below. It comes back to Adversity x Mindset x Gratitude Think of it like a Ven- Diagram where the sweet spot is in the middle The first step is to acknowledge what you have been through and gone through Ask yourself what the mindset was that go you through it? Since you have been through it, do you have more wisdom and knowledge?Do you see how you can be grateful for it? How can we get rid of the barriers keeping us from our greatness? Remove the negative people from your life Be around people of action and that are striving for something Try not to be idle Dream of the impossible Tap into your creativity – remember the world you would create for yourself when you were a kid where anything was possible We have the world at our fingertips – What do you want to do before you die? Start small and work your way up to bigger things. Focus on the small victories that are on the pathway to the larger goal If it’s not illegal, immoral, or unethical, just do it! Say yes. At the 36 min mark, Tofe explains what to do when “shit hits the fan” It comes down to 2 things… Adapting Bouncing Back Don’t be too attached to the outcome, instead focus on the process of what it takes to get there as that is the real work and where the real effort is needed. Pay close attention to your habits because “The chains of habit are too light to be felt until they are too heavy to be broken” How does all of this that we’ve discussed translate to entrepreneurship? Use the Practical Resilience Framework Adaptation is critical You have to take care of your mental health at the same level you take care of the rest of your health Embrace the process and small victories Don’t go it alone At the 46 min mark, Tofe talks about what it is like to run 0ver 60 KM’s on Mount Everest… Best Quote: “Practice “Present Focused Living.” Depression is when you are living too much in the past and anxiety is when you are living too far in the future.” Tofe's Misfit 3: Understand that whatever adversity you are going through will make you who you are as a person. Do something scary every day. List your 10 top fears and start with your easiest one. Practice gratitude so that it becomes one of your primary traits. List the top 100 things you are grateful for.

Tofe is an inspiring guy out to help others.

This is why having a six-pack mind is imperative.

Tofe’s boundaries, when it comes to endurance, are what many of us would consider to impossibilities. You see Tofe runs ultra marathons (100k) and the most recent also included almost 6,000 steps. He doesn’t compete to win. He competes to see how far he can push himself. He does it to learn things about human resilience (in this episode he talks about a system he’s developed called “Practical Resilience).” Tofe also opens up about his challenges with mental health, his lifelong journey for knowledge (you can tell this guy is a voracious reader), and tells us about his best selling book, “Everyone Has a Plan Until Shit Hits the Fan.” We talk about the importance of mindset, why you need to embrace adversity, and how gratitude will change your definition of reality.

Travel Wisdom Podcast -travel and learn languages for success and money
I talked to Tofe about his dip into depression and mental health issues. Then one day he decided to run a marathon and then within about 6 months of doing these kinds of events he had pulled himself out of depression. We talk about how travel and doing races are actually very similar things, they both help you get out of the environment causing the depression. Both of us had the experience of getting better after about 6 months of moving our ass! So whatever you do, if you feel the pull of depression or mental health issues the first thing you should do is get out of the environment that is causing it. Whether it is running a marathon, going out to travel, or anything else you might want to do - move your ass!
