Show notes

In this powerful Passion Struck podcast episode, John R. Miles breaks down why we need to stop playing small and instead play big. He goes through what it means to play small vs playing big and 7 skills you can use to play big and live a no regrets life. Why So Many Are Playing Small in Their Life Did you know that Two-thirds of Brits and over seventy percent of Americans feel they are living an unfulfilled life, according to new research? When we are not living to our full capability, it is the very definition of playing small in our life. That is why it is so vital that we start playing big and living a no regrets life. Despite an overwhelming majority of people saying they have a bucket list, most of us have only ticked off between one and five items on it. That is because we fall into the trap of security, comfort, and fear. Those things holding us back from living the passion-driven life we are meant to live. In this episode, you will understand why it is so detrimental to play small and the criteria for doing so. Also, what it means to play big and how that can have a profound impact on your happiness.

Mastering the Art of Tact w/ John R. Miles EP 45 Jul 16, 2021

Show notes

We all have to communicate painful or sensitive information at some point in our careers. And, while it's important, to tell the truth, we need to think about how we do it. Tact allows us to be honest while respecting a person's feelings. Please subscribe, and join me on my new platform for personal development: https://passionstruck.com/. When we communicate tactfully, we can preserve relationships, build credibility, and demonstrate thoughtfulness. In today’s episode of the Passion Struck, John R. Miles examines what tact is, and looks at how you can develop this important quality. John discusses how tact and diplomacy are skills centered around an understanding of other people and being sensitive to their opinions, beliefs, ideas, and feelings. Developing effective tact and diplomacy skills requires practice and good judgment. These skills are not limited to use informal communications, such as in the workplace: tact and diplomacy are also important when developing and maintaining friendships, romantic relationships, and relationships in the family.

How to Resolve Conflict in 5 Steps w/ John R. Miles EP 43 Jul 09, 2021

Show notes

Just like “death and taxes,” conflict is inevitable! Why? Because no two individuals have the same needs and concerns. That is why it is essential to understand how to resolve conflict in 5 steps. Like this? Please subscribe, and join me on my new platform for personal development: https://passionstruck.com/. In this powerful Momentum Friday Episode, John R. Miles discusses unhealthy vs. healthy conflict resolution and understanding the different conflict management styles. Conflict, or more specifically, interpersonal conflict, is a fact of life and organizational life. It often emerges when people are stressed, for example, when there are changes on the horizon or when everyone is under pressure because of a looming deadline. However, conflict can also arise in relationships and situations outside work. How to Resolve Conflict in a Healthy Way But there is a difference between healthy and unhealthy conflict. Without conflict, we don’t have robust relationships, create a future vision, and don’t move the needle. But unhealthy conflict ends up eating away at trust and shared values. That is why diplomacy is so important to bringing about healthy conflict management. According to the Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument (TKI), used by human resource (HR) professionals worldwide, there are five major styles to resolve conflict—collaborating, competing, avoiding, accommodating, and compromising. Knowing when and how to use each style can help resolve conflict and improve the working environment or interpersonal relationships.

Miles and Sydney Wong discuss her journey from McGill University to becoming a financial analyst to now leading a startup accelerator in Montreal, CA. We go into why balance, your self-narrative, and routine is so vital in becoming a lean startup. Sydney met startups at Montreal events that needed help with funding and grants; she offered to write business plans. In 2016, she launched a gamified business plan writing application. Most people didn't complete "Product Validation" Level 3 (out of 8 levels) during the beta. That was the biggest failure for startups, so she grouped and built out this application. She broadened the research to understand the success metrics that investors, government grantors, and banks are looking for when funding startups. The VenturX metrics were reverse-engineered to provide quality startups the best chances for funding and success. The rest is history!!!

Abigail Barnes On: Turn Your Time Into Productivity EP 38 Jun 22, 2021

Show notes

Do you know how to turn your time into productivity? This search for a more productive life has led to a particular miscategorization about what time management is and how it relates to productivity-- the simple truth is that it is far more than simply having a to-do list and checking this off of it. The most productive people do not concentrate on doing more things. This is actually the opposite of being productive. If you really want to be effective, you've got to make a point of doing the right things with your time. This starts by realizing It's Your Time. Like this? Please subscribe, and join me on my new platform for personal development: https://passionstruck.com/. Turn Your Time Into Productivity Thank you for listening to the Passion Struck podcast. In this powerful interview, John R. Miles and Abigail Barnes discuss Time Management and how to use this vital resource to increase your productivity in your career and your life. It begs the question, why are we all so obsessed with productivity? It's probably because staying on task and avoiding distraction is more challenging to accomplish than your actual work in this digital age. Not to mention the feeling of having a productive day is somewhat euphoric. New Interviews with the World's GREATEST high achievers will be posted every Tuesday with a Momentum Friday inspirational message! Turn Your Time Into Productivity Show Notes
