What a 9-year-old boy taught me about courage
Its never comfortable
Courage has always been an interesting character trait to me and over time I’ve decided that it’s not a trait, it’s a learnable skill.
There's a good reason why an invisible habit is hard to break
Life’s busy – no surprises there – so over time, we all develop habits and routines to help get stuff done, fast.
These decision-shortening processes continue to develop throughout our lifetime. It’s not long until we all develop our own unconscious implicit bias about people we like, situations we don’t, and how to see the world.
The result is regardless of how impartial we think we are, we all have implicit bias hiding in our subconscious.
The problem is what you don’t know can hurt you (and your business).
The one skill that leverages all other skills
There is one mental skill that leverages and amplifies all of our other skills and abilities.
It's the ability to be present in the moment.
Whether you're leading a business, a family or simply learning how to make better decisions based upon good sense and clear judgment – your ability to be present in that moment can be the difference between success and another poor decision.
How much do motives matter?
This business question has always irritated me
There are many ways to do good in business, just as there are many motivations for doing so.
So what qualifies as a good motive, a bad motive, or just a nice idea?
- Want the biggest benefit for your buck? Now you're thinking like a philanthropist
- If it's not on your map, you probably won't go there
- Measuring the value of a business course – when is enough learning, enough?
- Pushy sales people, boundaries and the Crowned Prince of Nigeria
- First time Dad, first time Boss and the world looks different now
- Jesus, long hair and how bias affects my business decisions
- Diversity matters – is your website a little too white?
