86: Tiffani Bova, Are You A Visual Learner? Jul 17, 2018

Show notes

The 21st century attention span is short. With our Macbooks and iPhones calling for every fiber of our attention, we’ve become conditioned to instant responses of information. But education isn’t this. To thoroughly learn a subject matter requires thoughtful and deliberate practice.

85: Is Reading More Valuable Than Live Experience? Jim Rohn vs. B.C. Forbes Jul 13, 2018

Show notes

We can’t just read. As tempting as it might be to endlessly get lost in books, we must also choose to live our own lives. A healthy balance between life experience and reading gives us the flexibility is the secret to success. Books teleport us to new realities, but experiencing the world ourselves is what gives us the superpower to write our own realities.

84: Molly Beck, Why You Should Start A Podcast Jul 11, 2018

Show notes

Everyone is starting a podcast. It seems that with each week, somebody you know is posting about his/her podcast. Dogs, religion, weather—the topic of conversation doesn’t matter, anything goes in this new medium. But before you dive in and start your own, it’s important to take a step back and make sure you’re approaching it as deliberately as possible.

83: Carmine Gallo, How You Can Talk Like TED: The Public-Speaking Secrets Jul 09, 2018

Show notes

We’ve all watched a bad speech. There we are sitting in the audience, either twiddling our thumbs in boredom or squirming in our chairs from anxiety. Public-speaking is no easy task, so we must make sure we do the prep work up front to best prepare for the limelight.

82: Strengths and Weaknesses: Michael Jordan vs. Marilyn vos Savant Jul 07, 2018

Show notes

We all have strengths and weaknesses. So we’re left with the decision: do we spend time working on our weaknesses or do we pursue our strengths instead? By pursuing the former, we create a more well-rounded individual. But if we choose the latter, we are able to cut through the noise by specializing and being that much better than the competition.

81: Matthew Smith, How To Improve Your Emails Jul 05, 2018

Show notes

We are bombarded by advertisements all day long. Most we ignore, but some catch our eye. It is these advertisements that we must take note of. Understanding the robust design process behind them can help improve our messaging for our own product or service.

80: Lauren Zander, What You Should Do With That Voice In Your Head Jul 02, 2018

Show notes

Our alarm clock gets set to 6AM. We say we’re going to wake up early to go the gym before work. But then the alarm clock beeps, and the voices in our heads convince us that pressing snooze is okay. This is the core of the human condition; we must negotiate the conflicting interests of our internal monologue.

79: Storytelling, Your Belief Overshadows Circumstance Jun 29, 2018

Show notes

The voices in our heads are convincing. They will elegantly apply the stories we know to the events in our lives to make sense of the world around us. This process is inevitable, so we must make sure that the narratives we choose to tell ourselves are holding us to an honest reality.

78: Christopher Kai, Why Stories Are The Most Powerful Jun 27, 2018

Show notes

Our brains are hardwired for story. When we are exposed to a compelling conflict with engaging characters, our minds become enraptured by the events at play. The science shows that we remember stories roughly 22 times more than non-story content. This means we must infuse this story-based content into each vertical of our personal brand.
