"Recognizing the gift in the crisis is only possible through recognition and transformation."

Cliff dive today. Tomorrow a wheelchair. Hard to imagine. But that's what happened to the guest in the latest SMP LeaderTalk. Boris Grundl is in the middle of life when a cliff jump in Mexico suddenly changes everything. In the midst of this chaos, the only constant is himself. Grundl has the courage to take his life into his own hands. And changes everything by deciding to take responsibility for himself and stop looking for excuses. A realization that we can all learn something from.

"If I think I can influence something, then I can get out of the victim role."

Boris Grundl is a successful author, inspiring coach and captivating speaker.

But above all, he is a stand-up guy. His development has led him into self-responsibility and out of the victim mentality. In this interview, he explains how he achieved this.

"You need discipline for the moments when you don't want to."

He also talks to Georgiy Michailov about how you can manage not to give up, how you can overcome even strokes of fate with mental transformation and what happens when you focus your awareness on the things you can influence.
