Do you have a nagging feeling that you are capable of doing, being, and achieving more? Are you unsure of how to unlock that potential? Every week, join Dr. Ram and Chris Morrell on our personal journeys to make self-development relatable and digestible.
Let's face it, we all have little quirks or do things we maybe shouldn't do throughout the day. For example, have you ever found yourself gazing through the fridge without even being hungry? Perhaps you incessantly check your email just to see if there's anything new. Or maybe you have engaged in the act of gossiping behind someone's back. Moments like these (and countless others) in our daily lives all have something in common. Can you guess what it is? The answer may surprise you. When you take a deeper look into psychology and learn more about why humans do what they do, you'll discover the reason that we engage in these types of behaviors is because of our ego. Our ego is so much more than just something that gives you the “feeling” of confidence. It's actually one of the most powerful forces that can make or break the course of our future. Welcome back to another episode of the Unlimited Potential show! During episode 83, Dr. Ram and Chris have a deep-dive conversation all about this topic and define exactly what the ego is. We outline the unexpected ways ego can manifest in your life, and we also provide some simple ways to keep your ego at bay if it turns toxic. This is one of the episodes you can put on the “power playlist” for the show. Even if this is the only episode you ever listen to, understanding these concepts and learning how to apply the life principles discussed in today's episode can help unlock your next level of success and higher consciousness. We hope you enjoy and re-listen to it as much as we are. After you're finished with today's show, it's time to take action!

Time isn't the main thing, it's the only thing. - Miles Davis A few weeks ago we did an episode on motivation and we covered some of the major points from a keynote speech Dr. Ram heard from Daniel Pink. He was so fascinated by some of the concepts that he talked about during the event, he had to dig deeper specifically into one of his books called “When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing.” Today we are going to cover the main takeaways you need to know to unlock your Unlimited Potential! If you haven't already read When here is some context about the book. It was published in 2018, and the book is made of data and research he gathered through 700 different scientific studies to get a better understanding of how big of a role timing plays in our life. He looked at the different facets of society and culture in fields like economics, anthropology, social psychology, and others. And his goal was to give us a look as to why we make the decisions we do. But not only that. When we make these decisions, why we make them when we do rather.

If you're looking for ways to strengthen your relationship, perhaps you're trying to gain better influence over your team, or maybe you simply want to become a better conversationalist. Whatever your current goals are, this series will definitely help you get there! It may sound funny to explain listening on a podcast, but we believe that this one episode has the ability to up-level your business, personal relationships, and even the way you speak to yourself and create habits. Listening and learning how to hear what others are saying is a skill that you would assume would be natural for most humans. However, very rarely can someone say that “listening” was intentionally taught to them in a school setting, a family setting, or even a church setting… The reason is simple. Most people (even our leaders) probably don't know the importance of listening or even how to do it themselves. Don't get us wrong…we aren't pros at the listening and empathy game just yet, but we are actively developing the skill every day. You should too! Hit play to hear our thoughts on listening, what human Psychology and research has to say about the Art of Listening, the monetary benefits of listening and so much more! This conversation was so powerful we had to split it into two parts. Be sure to listen to the next episode to hear the rest of our conversation! After listening, let us know what you think!

If you want the full picture and to get the most out of these powerful coaching tips, you'll want to hear part one and two! Think back to when you were young and ask yourself, who were the adults that had the most impact on your life? Hopefully, a few smiling faces come to mind when you reflect on the people that helped get you where you are today. Maybe it was a coach, a teacher, a mentor, or a parent that came to mind. Regardless of how you knew them, they made an impact on you and that's what matters the most. Most likely, because of them you now want to leave a positive impact on those around you. Isn't that the way it should work? When you meet a great leader or coach, it naturally makes you want to be one yourself. That same line of thinking and giving back is what makes today's show so special. This week on The Unlimited Potential Show we are starting our new series on the great Coach John Wooden. After his famous career as an American basketball coach, John Wooden was named coach of the 20th century by ESPN. No other team has won more than four in a row in Division I college men's or women's basketball. Crazy right? In the final part of this enlightening conversation about Coach Wooden, we cover some of the most important principles we can all learn from. If you don't want to up-level your leadership, I would recommend skipping this episode.

“We all get 24 hours in a day…it's up to us as to what we do with those 24 hours.” - Sam Huff You may have heard that quote before, maybe in a different way or from another person, but the message remains the same. We have the same 24 hours that the most successful people in the world have, so what's the difference between them and us? Before you say “money” or “connections”, think about this. Where are you wasting time the most? If you've ever felt overwhelmed and drained by your schedule, or you've felt like the amount of work you are putting day in and day out is not creating the results you want, then hit play. Because today we uncover the best way to achieve more by doing less in every area of your life. Welcome back to the Unlimited Potential Show! In today's episode, we talk all about the 80/20 principle and how it can save you time, effort, and frustration. This isn't just some hack or genie in a bottle that promises results with no rewards. This principle is already at work in your life, you just may not have noticed it yet. Did you know that most companies make 80% of their profit from 20% of their clients and that 80% of their clients only bring in 20% of the profit? It sounds crazy but it's true. If companies spent more time on the 20% that was buying and less time on the 80% that wasn't, then logically, it's safe to say their profits would increase. However, this principle goes deeper than just business and products. Join us as we talk about how you can find the 20% in your life and start making the impact you've always dreamed of. From work to passions and even relationships, you'll get actionable steps to pinpoint the priorities in your life and start focusing on the stuff that matters. You'll hear real-life examples of how the 80/20 principle has made a more fulfilling and intentional life for so many people. So, why not you too? You ready? Let's go!

On today's episode, we briefly talk about the incident at the Oscars, the responsibility actors have when it comes to their personal lives, and our thoughts and official review on the powerful movie that is King Richard. SPOILER ALERT!: We talk about specific scenes from the movie and what it taught us about creating and planning for success! If you haven't seen this movie, but it's on your to-do list, you may want to skip over a few sections. Either way, we hope you enjoy this episode and watch King Richard during your next movie night. Though Will acted impulsively that night, his character Richard Williams, father of tennis legends Venus and Serena Williams, was anything but impulsive.

Join us this week as we dive into the concept of confident humility and how you can learn this vital skill for yourself.

It's super busy, with lots of emails, phone calls, texts, dinners, and things that keep you running around. Then at the end of the week, you realize all that work you did got you nowhere closer to your end goal. So, how can you skip the distractions and get right to what matters? Today we take a dive into personal management and how you can practically create a workweek that has you cutting through the noise and intentionally moving that needle forward. We talk about the 4 principles mentioned in the book, how to know what is a priority in your life, and the two practices to help manage your time more effectively. Sometimes, like that workweek above, our lives get so inundated with information and things we need to do, we never stop to think about WHEN we need to do them. Our world is run by apps, notifications, reminders, and all sorts of things that make it seem like everything is urgent. But with the 4 quadrants tool, you'll be able to separate the ‘urgent' from the important and all the degrees in between. Listen in as we give practical tips on how you can effectively plan your week in advance, prevent emergencies and distractions, and even how you can hone in on your life's vision.

You aren't the only one, we've all experienced a time when emotions ran high and maybe we didn't handle things as best as we could. But here's where the habit of proactiveness comes in. Before you say “But I am proactive!” It may not be what you think. Listen in as we talk about how the habit of proactiveness starts with your own self-management and the very thoughts you think. There's a reason this habit is the first one to master because how you approach the world is crucial to how effective you are. We talk about the unique power of choice that all humans have as well as the understanding that the only thing we can really control in this world is ourselves. Just like the quote above, it all starts with your internal dialogue and how you choose to approach the obstacles between you and your dreams. You'll learn the three practices that are guaranteed to have you living more proactively and breaking free of a helpless mentality. As well as the other gifts and tools that can help you manage your emotions and take back control of how you respond to the world around you.

You've heard the term IQ before, it's a static number that doesn't really change over time and is used as a basis of your intelligence. But IQ isn't the only thing you need to succeed in life, in fact, we'd say that it's not even the most important. When it comes to managing and succeeding in your life, emotional intelligence is THE skill to learn. The good news is? You can grow this skill for the rest of your life. Welcome back to The Unlimited Potential Show! This week we start a new two-part series about the importance of emotional intelligence. Emotions are a part of our everyday lives, whether we acknowledge them or not. We are constantly dealing with emotional stimuli whether it's from other people, work, or our environment. There is something that is pulling at our attention. So, what would happen if we were able to identify and manage all these emotions? In this episode, we discuss the difference between IQ and EQ and the power that emotional intelligence has to skyrocket you into success. Join us as we talk about the four categories of emotional intelligence and how you can master each one to become a more effective communicator. You'll learn practical tips and tricks on identifying your emotions, processing them, and making the best choice not just for you but for other people around you. We talk about moments where high EQ was fundamental in changing an environment, why you should test the limits of your emotions, and even how you can pass this vital skill onto your children. IQ scores may boast problem-solving power, but when it comes down to your future and potential in everyday life, emotional intelligence takes the cake. So grab a fork and dig in, because this is just the beginning of unlocking your unlimited potential.
