Something as vague and indiscernible as “luck” has no place in the business world, right? Yet studies show luck can make all the difference between business success and failure. So, can you learn how to be lucky? Joël Le Bon, professor of marketing and sales at Johns Hopkins University Carey Business School, has found that luck is a significant factor in sales professionals' performance. He even says companies can manage their luck to get a competitive edge. You can read the Nir And Far blog post on: How to Be Lucky in Business and Life: 4 Science-Backed Principles https://www.nirandfar.com/how-to-be-lucky/ Nir And Far, a podcast about business, behaviour and the brain by Nir Eyal.

BE LUCKY. A PODCAST TRIBUTE TO OLIVER PHILLIPS. Welcome to a very special edition of From the Rookery End. In February, Watford Football Club lost one of the most important men in it's history. Oli Phillips covered more than 2,000 Hornets fixtures in his role at the Watford Observer, a career that spanned more than 40 years. This podcast is a tribute to Oli; a bona fide Watford legend. We hear from friends and colleagues of Oli, as well as two of the players that he'd regularly write about in such a memorable fashion; Tony Coton and John McClelland. As you'll hear, Oli was extremely well respected, both by those that knew him well, and those that pored over his very word, devouring his weekly work in the Watford Observer every Friday. Oliver Phillips will forever be a name synonymous with Watford Football Club. This is our small way of marking his quite extraordinary contribution to the club and the town. Be lucky.

Karla Starr who is the author of the new book, Can You Learn to Be Lucky? Why Some People Seem to Win More Often Than Others discusses how random events affect people in predictably self-defeating ways; the best way to cope with the world's chaos and constant change, and how we need to focus on improving the one thing we can control: ourselves.
Welcome to Mike Martin – Scribe Rat and one of the GOWR trustees of the charity Mike made himself known to me once I joined the order and I found out much more about him once I bought a copy of his book BE LUCKY about his father and PKR George Martin the Casual Comedian.Mike recalls those days of his missing father being on the road and of course spying on the windmill theatre waiting of his dad to finish work.Conversations about Equity, Basil Brush, Keith Harris and Harry Worth and the grand order of water rats feature as well as some interesting anecdotes along the way about working as a supporting actor in film and television such as Four Weddings and a Funeral and The Only Fools and Horses episode the Jolly Boys. Mike is into his American West movies and locations in the Alamo and Tennessee and has researched for author purposes. And he talks about his projects he's working on including a new tour titled Walking back to Happiness and The Jake Leg Jug Band.Enjoy listening to my conversation with one of The RATS in 2022 Welcome to Eyes & Teeth Mike Martin
We humans are good at dealing with small numbers. So good, scientists have coined the word Subitizing to describe how we know small numbers as well as the back of our hand. The opposite is also true. We can't differentiate big numbers. We know that 10 to the power of 10 is bigger than 10 to the power of 9, but how much bigger? Even on hearing that they differ by a factor of billions, we stumble to gauge that kind of scale. This puts those of us who present numbers in a pickle. Historical greats like Florence Nightingale had a terrible time presenting her data to government leaders. She broke with convention, framing everything in terms of soldiers not statistics, to argue how to prevent needless deaths in military hospitals. The book in today's show explains methods used by her & others to convey numbers that the brain has a hard time grasping. Knowing tactics that worked for Florence, should at the very least help us convince management to approve our marketing initiatives. Since graduating with a BA in Psychology and Philosophy from NYU, Karla has written columns for Medium and appeared on NPR and CBS Sunday Morning. She has also written for many magazines and won an award for the Best Science/Health story from the Society of Professional Journalists. Her first book was Can You Learn to Be Lucky? Why Some People Seem to Win More Often Than Others. We're talking today about the second book Making Numbers Count: The Art and Science of Communicating Numbers, with Chip Heath People/Products/Concepts Mentioned in Show Paul Slovik Steven Pinker Karla's newsletter The Starr Report on Substack.

It was a little more than ten years ago that I posted my first Sunday Morning Music mix. I had not intended on making it a regular series but the mix did very well on Mixcloud and is partially responsible for starting the explosion of followers the Low Light Mixes feed got in the following years. So I've been creating roughly two per years for 10 years. Yikes! It's kind of crazy to think about how long I've been making these mixes. This one follows the same formula - some ambient cuts, some jazzy tracks, a few vocal tunes, all resulting in a mellow vibe perfect for sipping coffee on a Sunday morning.

After John Entwistle's shocking death on the eve of The Who's 2002 tour, few could have been blamed for considering that event to be the proverbial "end of the road" for the group. Even fewer could have predicted that it would instead be followed by one of the largest tours in the band's history and their first album of new material in well over two decades, Endless Wire. But that's not all! If you'll carefully check the liner notes to Roger Daltrey's 2018 album As Long As I Have You - you might even notice enough appearances from Pete Townshend to consider it a secret Who album.Rather than being The Who's twilight years, the era from 2002-present is actually among the most productive periods since their initial heyday! Host, Marc With a C, digs into the circumstances that brought the Who to a full-fledged reemergence - even when the backstories aren't particularly flattering. In fact, there's an especially ugly elephant in the room that we have to address right off the bat, and you might want to consider this introductory text to be a trigger warning.Grim and grimy tidings aside, The Who soldier on valiantly, traveling to nearly every continent possible, reviving ideas, songs, and vault material, and just when we think they're done... Well, they shocked us by announcing work on a new record shortly after we concluded recording this season. Marc With a C is your leader, he is your guide, and he's all too happy to help you Be Lucky on this Amazing Journey!Albums touched on in this episode include Then & Now, Edge Of The World, View From a Backstage Pass, Endless Wire, Live At Hull, Going Back Home, As Long As I Have You, and more!

The Brainy Business | Understanding the Psychology of Why People Buy | Behavioral Economics
Today’s behavioral economics foundations episode is all about the optimism bias. I hope you’ve got your rose colored glasses, because here we go! This is one of those topics that has a name that makes it seem like you MIGHT know what it is…but you potentially don’t know for sure…and you probably don’t realize how much it impacts you and your customers every day. So, what is optimism bias? Essentially, this is our tendency to overweight the likelihood good things will happen to us, and underestimate the likelihood bad things will happen to us. This episode explores why we think this way and how understanding optimism bias can be used to improve our businesses. CLICK HERE FOR YOUR FREE DOWNLOAD! Show Notes [05:25] OPTIMISM BIAS - This is one of those topics that has a name that makes it seem like you MIGHT know what it is…but you potentially don’t know for sure…and you probably don’t realize how much it impacts you and your customers every day. [05:31] This is our tendency to overweight the likelihood good things will happen to us, and underestimate the likelihood bad things will happen to us. [06:34] It is important to note that optimism bias is not the same as being an optimist. And, if you consider yourself to be a pessimist or a realist…it doesn’t mean that you are not impacted by the optimism bias. It just might impact you a little bit differently. [07:08] Marriage is a great example of optimism bias. In spite divorce statistics, no one thinks that they are going to get divorced when they get married. [07:57] According to the CDC, 1 in every 4 deaths is due to heart disease, claiming 610,000 lives each year. Do you think the statistic will affect you? Your spouse? Parents? Close friends? Probably not. [08:36] We also think our children are uniquely talented and skilled – that they will grow up to change the world and do amazing things. [09:30] Tali Sharot said, “We are optimistic about ourselves. We are optimistic about our kids. We are optimistic about our families…but we are not so optimistic about the guy sitting next to us. And we are somewhat pessimistic about the fate of families in general and the fate of our country.” [10:08] Optimism bias means that deep down, ingrained in our DNA, we believe that we have a unique ability to do better and be better than everyone else. [10:40] Think about yourself and how you rank compared to the rest of the population in your ability to get along with others. Attractiveness? Honesty? Driving ability? Most people will rank themselves in the top quarter of the population on abilities and characteristics. (Even though that is impossible.) [13:16] Optimism bias is believing that you are uniquely going to do better than the odds. [14:01] What my social media followers said they were most interested in concerning optimism bias. [14:51] The first question is the over/under. At least 80% of us are impacted by optimism bias (but I say it hits everyone at least once in their lives). [15:36] For all the entrepreneurs listening – we are likely to be the serious optimism biasers of the world. We believe we can launch or create something no one ever has. [16:00] The “low expectations” theory - debunked. Turns out people with high expectations are happier than those with low expectations. [16:32] When someone with high expectations succeeds, they tie that back to their own abilities and traits. [16:55] When people with high expectations fail a test they think that they'll do better next time. [17:05] People with low expectations think if they fail it's because of something they are lacking. [17:26] Optimism and success are not just related – success is built on optimism. [18:06] People who use optimism and the optimism bias, who have high expectations, are happier. [18:23] However, optimism bias can cause people to make bad decisions and take bigger risk than they should. [19:21] Another way the optimism bias shows up in business is when we estimate how long something will take. [21:06] Why do we make to-do list with so many tasks that we'll never get through them? It's because our brains are anticipating the rewards after, and we are uniquely capable of getting those things done. [22:10] BIG TAKEAWAY: Let optimism bias guide your goals and dreams. Whatever those big goals are, fill them up with as much optimism bias as you can muster, because confidence will get you there. [23:22] Set corporate goals with optimism bias, but set realistic tasks for your staff. [26:16] My interview with Karla Starr, author of Can You Learn To Be Lucky? [27:28] When people treat you well you develop a stronger sense of self. (Examples from Sarah Palin and Brad Pitt.) [29:37] If you live as a confident person and think things will go well for you, (often) they will. [31:42] Formative years can instill how you believe about yourself. [33:09] Use optimism bias to your advantage to help you be lucky in life and business. [36:26] Join my Facebook live chat with Karla on February 13th - and ask your questions live! [41:16] Businesses will fall on either the light or dark side of this bias - and they need to market/message completely differently. Consider which side your business is on: light or dark? Make sure optimism bias works for you instead of against you. Thanks for listening. Don’t forget to subscribe on Apple Podcasts or Android.

Houdini and d-Rx® are throwing down mucho fantasy football knowlege and having a great time doing it. It's already Week 6 of the 2015 NFL season, which means - holy crap this season is flying by - it seems like last week that I was drafting all these dominant teams. Guys, you need to stick with it - you need to be the most aggressive, you need to stay on top of it if you want to be crowned the champion. Listening to the Pyro Podcast is the best recipe for this sort of success. Truth be told, you need to listen to us, use Pyromaniac.com and any other resource you deem worthy, but most importantly - you need to put your stamp on each of your teams. People that just listen to the experts and take their advice in total - don't regularly win. Don't be that person, be the one that wins - take outside info and put your imprint on it. Trust me, that is your best route to find luck. As Roger Daultry always says... "BE LUCKY"! But make your own luck as well. Our next show is #200 - that is amazing, we are really excited to fire it up next week... thank you so much for joining us on this journey fellow Pyros!
