Ross Edgley is a British ultra-endurance athlete and author known for completing extraordinary athletic feats by tapping into diverse sources of motivation and resilience. We discuss the psychological and biological forces that allow people to persevere through extreme challenges. Then we cover how to dynamically update your sense of purpose, emotions, philosophy, and personal narratives to expand your ability to overcome adversity of all kinds. We also discuss the brain circuits and science of fatigue and stress adaptation. Ultimately, a new framework emerges that you can use to access persistent motivation.
