578 - How 2 Minutes a Day of Networking Leads to New Opportunities with Jordan Harbinger Apr 23, 2020

Show notes

This is my networking hack: I dig through my inbox. Find an email chain from eight years ago (that I probably never responded to). Then I write back as if no time has passed at all. People love it. They forgive you for disappearing. And they're glad you got in touch. But that's my ONLY networking tip. Jordan Harbinger is the complete opposite networker than me. He's an expert at it. He's built thousands of relationships that have led to a top podcast, 6 million monthly downloads, speaking gigs, freedom to work for himself, be creative daily and more. In this episode, he tells me how he keeps track of people, build relationships, re-engages old, lost connections and what you can techniques you can use in your life starting now.

577 - How to Navigate Uncertainty in Quarantine with Psychologist Scott Barry Kaufman Apr 21, 2020

Show notes

Everyone says, "Flatten the curve." But there are two curves. We all know the main one: the spread of coronavirus. The other curve is the spread of psychological viruses; fear, anxiety, worry and panic. We're all experiencing Maslow's hierarchy of needs. We started out attacking each other for basic items like toilet paper, then we moved on to connection (Zoom calls and FaceTime), but how do we get to the top of the pyramid (i.e. self-actualization)? I called up Scott Barry Kaufman, a humanistic psychologist and author of "Transcend: The New Science of Self-Actualization." And he had a lot of practical advice. One of his tips: We don't have to worry about finding our one true purpose. We just need to find a purpose right now and pursue it. This episode will help make a roadmap for finding your purpose and fulfillment while stuck in Quarantine. And after. I write about all my podcasts!

Show notes

Right now, the Federal Reserve is pumping trillions of dollars of stimulus into the economy. So what does this mean? How are small businesses doing? When will people go back to work? And how does this impact the economy? I called up Jim Mckelvey. He's the co-founder of the multi-billion dollar business, Square. AND, more importantly, he's the Deputy Chair of the St. Louis Federal Reserve. He tells us how the stimulus works, what the risks are, what we should keep an eye on and more. Jim is also the author of the new book, "The Innovation Stack: Building an Unbeatable Business One Crazy Idea at a Time." It's a great guide book for today's entrepreneurs.

Show notes

People are losing their jobs. And schools have stopped functioning properly. The "normal" way of society is on pause. And we don't know for how long.

574 - Predictions For a Post COVID-19 World with Global A.I. Expert, Kevin Surace Apr 14, 2020

Show notes

AI used to be, what most people thought, was the biggest threat to our economic security. Now it's coronavirus. BUT one of the side effects of coronavirus is an acceleration of our future. Meaning that what used to seem like a "potential" truth (like robots stocking shelves, factories being automated, remote work, and so on) is all here faster than we had thought. So I brought on Kevin Surace to talk about these previous "future" predictions and show how they're happening now. AND we talk about what else we can foresee in a post coronavirus world. Kevin's been on the podcast before. He's an expert in A.I. He's built and sold AI companies and runs one right now. And he wrote this excellent article, "Our Post-COVID World," which you can read here https://medium.com/@kevinsurace/our-post-covid-world-ec3a30dc30b9 I write about all my podcasts!

573 - 13 Myths That The Coronavirus Exposed Apr 13, 2020

Show notes

I don't want to regret how I spend this time. But I also don't want to pressure myself to reinvent or write a book or create a business. I want to find the medium ground. How can I give to people who are struggling? Stay safe? And not get lost in fear? One way is to tackle the myths. Myths = fear and stupididity. So I sat down with my wife, Robyn, to talk about 13 coronavirus myths (ranging from unemployment rates, death rates, the future of work, etc.). We talk about how these 13 myths are impacting our behaviors. And what we can do differently to get enough rest, calm our minds and help take care of each other. I write about all my podcasts!

Show notes

We're in lockdown. And we don't know how long it'll last. And we don't know what will come next. Mini lockdowns? Personal lockdowns? More social distancing? We don't know.

Show notes

Other than eating and breathing, persuasion is the most important skill you could have. Because a pre-skill to persuasion is the ability to understand yourself and other enough to create a chain reaction of changes in life. Persuasion is what sets us up to have agency in the world. And there's a specific, 5-step framework that lets you understand how to be more persuasive in your everyday life. So I'm having Jonah Berger on the show. He's a professor at Wharton, a bestselling author and now he has a new book, "The Catalyst: How to Change Anyone's Mind." I write about all my podcasts!
