If we decide that we can't get better at things, or that our ideas and personality traits are fixed... then we hinder our ability to change and improve in enjoyable and fulfilling ways. But by challenging ourselves to be more hopeful about our prospects for improvement we can see profound changes in our lives. David Yeager, a psychology professor at UT-Austin, explains how we fall into limiting fixed mindsets, and how easy it is to start adopting a "growth" mindset that will allow us to flourish.

Episode #479:  The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People Review of Stephen Covey Best Selling Book Principles   Every once in a while I like to review "timeless" principles that have helped me in my life.   Stephen Covey was a professor, speaker and best selling author.  He wrote a book called 7 Habits of Highly Effective People as well as several others.  Time magazine named him one of the 25 most influential people.   The book sold over 30 million copies worldwide.  The audiobook become the first non-fiction book in the history of US to sell over 1 million copies.   In his book Covey talks about using a series of habits to align your principles (external) with your values (internal).  The 7 Habits represent amazing ideas on how you can align yourself and also (in my opinion) become a better, more effective and successful leader in business and life.   Here are the key 7 Habits : 1. Sharpen the saw. Don't work yourself to death. Strive for a sustainable lifestyle that affords you time to recuperate, recharge and be effective in the long-term.   2. Be proactive. You have a natural need to wield influence on the world around you so don't spend your time just reacting to external events and circumstances. Take charge and assume responsibility for your life.   3. Begin with an end in mind. Don't spend your life working aimlessly, tackling whatever job is at hand. Have a vision for the future and align your actions accordingly to make it into a reality.   4. Put first things first. To prioritize your work, focus on what's important, meaning the things that bring you closer to your vision of the future. Don't get distracted by urgent but unimportant tasks.   5. Think win-win. When negotiating with other, don't try to get the biggest slice of the cake, but rather find a division that is acceptable to all parties. You will still get your fair share, and build strong positive relationships in the process.   6. Seek first to understand, then to be understood. When someone presents us with a problem, we often jump right to giving a solution. This is a mistake. We should first take time to really listen to the other person and only then make recommendations.   7. Synergize. Adopt the guiding principle that in a group, the contributions of many will far exceed those of any individual. This will help you achieve goals you could never have reached on your own.   I hope these ideas and principles will help you to continue to grow and uncover the best version of yourself by reminding you to align your principles and values.

Ever find it challenging to share project updates in Leadership Team Meetings or feel uncertain about who has decision-making authority during discussions? GOOD NEWS! This is a common cause of friction w/ many of my clients and the solution is simple!   HERE IT IS: Be clear about objectives and roles before you initiate a conversation.   Here are 3 common discussion types that really help you clarify your objectives and are simple to share with the team. Adopt them and create titles for each type that fit the culture of your team. 1. I'm sharing this information as an...   FYI - Clarifying Questions = Yes, Weighing in with Suggestions that Dramatically Shift = No, Sharing means I get to help decide = No 2.   I'm sharing this to get feedback, insights, suggestions, ideas, perspectives, support in implementation - I Retain Full Decision-Making Authority. All of the Above = Yes, Grabbing Decision Making Authority by weighing in = No 3.   I'm Sharing this so we can discuss, collaborate and decide as a full team or specified subset - INFORMED ideas, opinions, feedback, suggestions all shared IN the meeting (No Back Hall Commentary/Politicking after the fact) Assure that key decision-makers are present to hear and participate in the full discussion. These simple tweaks have helped many of my clients. I hope they are useful for you! Have clarifying questions around these tips or something to share? Feel free to comment!

When Jesus speaks of faith in the bible, he says that children have an incredible faith, and we would do good to mimic it. We see throughout scripture that children have a special place in God's heart, especially for those who are vulnerable. As a Christian, we are to seek private purity and public charity. Our acts should not publicly show that we are concerned with ourselves, but with the wellbeing of others. Rescuing hurting children is not just a charity for us to support, it's a rescue mission for all of the church. And that action of rescue begins with compassion. Have you considered standing in for the vulnerable and being the voice for the voiceless? Join us by participating in the ONE ministry - https://www.burnthickory.com/one/ and meet one need, encourage one child, and together we can be one family. You can also sponsor a child in Kenya or Guatemala through one of our missions' partners - https://www.burnthickory.com/missions/sponsorship-guatemala--kenya/. Special Guest: Peter Abungu.

The Bible says: "Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a dream fulfilled is a tree of life" (Proverbs 13:12 NLT).   We know God is not a magic genie that exists simply to fulfill our every wish, desire or longing. But I also know that sometimes when our dreams (the ones we thought God gave us) don't come to fruition, our hearts can become hardened, cold, and unbelieving because we're left hurt and disillusioned.   We can't always pinpoint why those dreams never happened, but we can always trust that He knows the bigger picture. His ways are not our ways!   If we aren't careful, the disappointments, delays and detours with our dreams give the enemy an open door to build strongholds of doubt and unbelief.   A hard heart is not good soil to receive another dream from Him. A sick heart will cause you to: Second guess your ability to hear God. Not be able to dream again. Adopt a "que sera sera" attitude. Not pray. Pray safe prayers – you know the kind of prayers that if God doesn't come through, it's not that big of a deal Not trust God with your heart anymore Ask me how I know. I've been there!

How can a 60 year old run faster? What are ways to run strong in your 50s and beyond?Is it possible to compete in triathlons at an older age?How much of running is mental, especially when running after 60 years old?Is running good for over 60s?If you are asking yourself these questions, this episode and these show notes are the place for you! Dr. Donnelly reveals his tips for triathlon training for seniors, secrets to competing in triathlons at an older age, running after 60 years old, and just how overall wisdom for staying fit at 60 years old and beyond.The answer to the important question “Is running good for over 60s” is a resounding “yes” based on our interview. However, he provides concrete examples and words of wisdom to stay healthy (spoiler alert- he has never missed a race due to injury)!Dr. Donnelly's Simplified Training Tips (make sure to listen to the entire episode to hear all his insights on running in your 60s and beyond!).Use Time Under Tension programs (TUT) for weight trainingIn order to stimulate muscle hypertrophy and endurance, he completes strength training workouts lasting between 35-40 minutes long with 40-45 second reps each. By slowing down each movement, the muscle remains under tension longer and may have improved results.Compete Intermittent Fasting for Runners or Cyclists SmartlyTo stimulate fat burning and metabolism, he recommends no calories after 7pm and starting the day with black coffee only, followed by an endurance workout lasting 60-75 minutes with water.Reset Heart Rate Zones Every FallBecause he enjoys tracking metrics like most endurance athletes, Dr. Donnelly does a fall 5k race to establish his max heart rate running and also completes a difficult cycling workout to do the same while biking.Train Your BrainEspecially for running in your 60s and beyond, our potential can be limited based on our brain. By training the brain, the body can be pushed for maximum results.Adopt a Curiosity Mindset When Running after 60 Years old, Running at 70 Years Old, and MoreAs runners age, a natural slowdown occurs. Dr. Donnelly explains how his key word is ‘curiosity' and he has done the same local triathlon 20-25 different times. For each competition, he challenges himself based on his age- can he accelerate up the hill or speed up at the finish? Reanalyze Your Goals When Assessing Fitness For Over 60sAt any age, it's important to have balance. Dr. Donnelly encourages us all to constantly reassess our goals and make sure our training regimens are not harmful to others.  Finally, our guest inspires us all as he plans to continue running at 70 years old, always have new goals, and maintain his competitive edge at any age.

Show Notes:   How to Be a Better Communicator Communication is the key when it comes to anything that involves collaboration. Since humans are a social species, communication is involved in nearly everything you do.  Some people are born with the natural ability to communicate well, while others may struggle with it. No matter what category you fall into, it's likely that you can benefit from paying attention to improving your communication skills.  Why Better Communication Helps You Did you know that most businesses consider your communication skills to be the most important characteristic about you? This means that you could have top-notch knowledge and job skills but still fail to land a job if you're lacking in the communication department.  Communication is certainly not only important when it comes to your work life, but it's also vital in having a successful home life as well. Couples and family members that are good communicators lead happier lives overall.  Proper communication will prevent misunderstandings and save you time so you won't have to go back and explain yourself again and again. You know you've gained good communication skills when you can communicate your thoughts effectively with as few words as necessary! How To Improve Communication With Others Communication is a two way street. This means that you could have excellent skills, but if the recipient is lacking, then you may not be understood. This is why it's important not only to develop our speaking skills, but our listening skills, too.  Since you can't affect the skill level of others, the only thing you can do is strengthen your own communication skills. Besides, when you're an excellent communicator, more people will understand you, everything around you will run more efficiently, and you'll more often get what you want! Try these strategies to improve your communication skills:  1. Avoid arguing. If you run into a snag in a conversation and it starts to morph into an argument, step back and realize what's going on. It's easy to get swept up into the blame game, but ultimately it's not important who's at fault. What's important is the mutual understanding of the issue at hand and a desire for a solution that benefits everyone.  2. Don't be afraid to compromise. You may be tempted to try and "win" but that's not the best way to reach a mutual agreement. You may be happier with getting your way, but it may come at the expense of the other person, which can cause further issues. Find a good compromise that you both can willingly accept. 3. Work on listening. Your listening skills are even more important than your speaking skills. After all, how will you know what you should say - and when - if you haven't effectively listened? Listen more than you speak and you'll gain a profound wisdom of others, too!  4. Keep your focus. Communication will get overly complicated if you worry about too many issues at once. Avoid bringing up the past or other issues and, instead, focus on the one topic at hand.  5. Stay calm and take responsibility. Adopt a calm and cool manner of handling situations. When things remain low key, it's easier to communicate and get your point across. This also means that you need to take responsibility for what you say. Don't be afraid to admit mistakes when you're wrong.  Becoming a better communicator doesn't happen overnight.

Vanessa Bohns: You Have More Influence Than You Think Vanessa Bohns is a social psychologist, an award-winning researcher and teacher, and a professor of organizational behavior at Cornell University. Her writing and research has been published in top academic journals in psychology, management, and law and has also been featured in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Harvard Business Review, and NPR's Hidden Brain. Her book is titled You Have More Influence Than You Think: How We Underestimate Our Power of Persuasion, and Why It Matters*. In this conversation, Vanessa and I explore the conclusions of research: we often don't recognize our own power. We detail some of the common patterns that leaders should watch for in their work. Most importantly, we discuss the practical steps that almost anybody can take to use power more responsibly. Key Points Power can lead people to underestimate their words and actions. A powerful person's whisper can sound more like a shout to the person they have power over. Power tends to lead people to ignore the perspective of others and to feel freer to do whatever they want. The effects of power are not inevitable. You can do better for others by thinking about power as responsibility. Adopt the lens of a third party in order to see the impact of your actions on others. To feel your impact better, ask people what they aren thinking of feeling, rather than simply imagining or assuming. One way to experience your influence by taking action to give positive recognition and feedback.

Full show notes at www.LearningLeader.com Twitter/IG: @RyanHawk12  https://twitter.com/RyanHawk12 Liz Wiseman is the New York Times bestseller author of Multipliers, Rookie Smarts, and most recently Impact Players. She is the CEO of the Wiseman Group, a leadership research and development firm. Some of her recent clients include Apple, Disney, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Nike, Tesla, and Twitter. Liz has been listed on the Thinkers50 ranking and named one of the top 10 leadership thinkers in the world. Notes: Habits of high impact players: Learn the game Play where they are needed Play with passion Impact players have a good internal locus of control. They believe they have agency in their life. They believe they are in charge of their life. Liz said, “You have a lot more power than you might think you have.” Neil deGrasse Tyson said, “what you know is not as important as what you think.” If you aspire to have greater influence, start thinking like an impact player…don't just use the playbook. Adopt the impact player mentality as your ethos. Many leaders commented how much they learned thru the process of answering questions. Teaching others can be one of the greatest tools for learning in the world... Seeking feedback and guidance versus seeking validation. Impact players don't need validation. They crave feedback and guidance so they can continually improve. Say less: Play your chips wisely - Before an important meeting, give yourself a budget of poker chips where each chip represents a comment or contribution to the meeting. Be relevant, be evidence-based, be unique and additive, be succinct. Building credibility with leaders and stakeholders: Some credibility killers? Waiting for managers to tell you what to do, ignoring the bigger picture, tell your manager it's not your job. Some credibility builders? Doing things without being asked, anticipating problems, and having a plan. Instead of following your passion… Be useful. Make a name for yourself by running towards the problems and solving them. Make your boss's life easier. Be useful. Work on what's important for the people you work for… “The Diminisher is a Micromanager who jumps in and out. The Multiplier is an Investor who gives others ownership and full accountability.” “Multipliers invoke each person's unique intelligence and create an atmosphere of genius—innovation, productive effort, and collective intelligence.” “It isn't how much you know that matters. What matters is how much access you have to what other people know. It isn't just how intelligent your team members are; it is how much of that intelligence you can draw out and put to use.” “Multipliers aren't “feel-good” managers. They look into people and find capability, and they want to access all of it. They utilize people to their fullest. They see a lot, so they expect a lot.” “The highest quality of thinking cannot emerge without learning. Learning can't happen without mistakes.” What do Impact Players do? While others do their job, Impact Players figure out the real job to be done. While others wait for direction, Impact Players step up and lead. While others escalate problems, Impact Players move things across the finish line. While others attempt to minimize change, Impact Players are learning and adapting to change. While others add to the load, the Impact Players make heavy demands feel lighter. Some think you become great on the big stage under the bright lights. But the light only reveals the work you did in the dark. —Jeff Bajenaru An overarching idea: I can be of service and solve problems. The slogan from Kaiser Sand & Gravel; “Find a need and fill it.”
