You have a perfect plan... until you don't. In both a UFC fight and in life, everything can change in a split second. Using the MMA concept of a "level change"—the sudden switch from a striking match to a wrestling match—this episode provides a powerful framework for dealing with sudden, jarring, and unexpected changes.

Whether it's a surprise career shift, a new technology that disrupts your industry, or an unexpected personal crisis, this is your game plan for chaos.

In this episode, you will learn:

• The critical first step to take when your reality shifts, to avoid wasting energy on denial.

• How to activate a different skill set and be humble enough to adapt to the new "rules of the game."

• The strategy for surviving a bad position in order to fight your way back to a place of strength.
