So we jumped into this episode to wrestle with something that's been front and center lately in our client work—and in our own Floodlight team:-Why isn't our “training” sticking?-Why do good people still hesitate or fall short after a solid onboarding or rollout? It's because we're mistaking knowledge transfer for skill transfer. Let me break that down. I've been thinking a lot lately about this gap that keeps showing up—between what we think we're doing as leaders and what's actually happening in the trenches with our teams. And man, I'll be honest… for a long time, I confused training with coaching. I thought if I gave a killer talk, showed the playbook, or laid down some well-crafted processes, then boom—problem solved. We're off to the races. But that's not how real transformation works. Not even close. [00:04:20] Training ≠ Coaching [00:10:20] The Ego Trap [00:15:14] Coaching Gold: The Wayne Story [00:34:08] Values = Leverage [00:46:03] Two Tactical Nuggets Thank you sponsors!

Evolutionary psychologist, Doug Lisle, PhD discusses listener questions with host, Nathan Gershfeld.  In today's show, Dr. Lisle's discusses a term called The Ego Trap in the context of the following listener question: 1. Do you think Lebron James is ego-trapping his son Bronny? He has tweeted that Bronny is going to do extremely well he just needs a bit of time, but in reality the kid looks like he's not even cut out for the D-League. I know there's something to be said of Lebron's status and influence in the league when it comes to decision-making, but I wonder what will come out of his son. Bronny has stated in the past that he wants to make his own name and not be compared to his dad. Do you think Lebron's son will succeed in not feeling bad for living up to people's high expections and just play the game because he loves it? Or will he react like a teenager with pushy parents wanting him to get straight A's knowing that he can't?

The more you want something, the more you reinforce your current reality (it isn't here yet). Which is normal to start from, BUT we can easily end up staying there. We constantly want change, telling everyone around us, but the story never seems to change. Years go by, and you're still stuck doing the same old ish, saying the same old story to everyone around you. Why do we do this? - Comfort. We are comfortable where we are! Your mind will do whatever it can to keep you there as long as it feels comfortable and familiar, even if your current reality sucks. How do you go from wanting to having? - Discomfort! You must embody who you think you would be and do if it was already here. These are the fundamental steps you should take, which is helllllllaaaa uncomfortable. You must let go of the old story and embody a new one. And this is where you will be tested. But persistence is key! Tune into the full episode for more. Peace & Love!

In this solo episode I dive into how we can use spirituality as a way to make ourselves feel superior to others, bypass responsibility, and excuse certain behaviors- aka our spiritual ego.    The ego is one of the aspects of humans that is necessary for individuality. It makes up who we uniquely are, and differentiates us from others. The ego is not a negative part of you, but it is a good idea to understand when it's working for you or against you in life.    I share my own journey with my ego, ascension culture, the fun side of spirituality that receives backlash, how spiritual language can come off condescending, and why it's important to step out of your psyche and back into your body for healing.   If you are looking for a diverse + nourishing community of like-minded souls I'd love to invite you to join the waitlist of Rose Gold Goddesses at https://www.rosegoldgoddesses.com   If you are wanting to explore different parts of yourself but aren't 100% sure where to begin my new Rose Gold Goddess Archetype quiz is for you!

Alan Watts Deep dives on the fundamental game we play with ourselves by separating ourselves from our ego and therefore creating a separatenes from reality. Followed up with a brief but informative introduction into a few meditation techniques and how they work.

"The Brief — Big Tech and the Big Ego trap Last year, the movie Don't Look Up provided a desecrating and caricatured picture of today's society – a toxic cocktail of a mass antiscientific movement, ruthless and self-serving politicians, and uncritical media obsessed with attention-seeking celebritie" "--START AD- #TheMummichogblogOfMalta Amazon Top and Flash Deals(Affiliate Link - You will support our translations if you purchase through the following link) - https://amzn.to/3CqsdJH Compare all the top travel sites in just one search to find the best hotel deals at HotelsCombined - awarded world's best hotel price comparison site.

In this scenario, the megalomaniac tech billionaire – a figure that now seems growingly inescapable in the caricatures of contemporary society – made his grand entry. And it is not hard to see in the character of Peter Isherwood a mix of past and present innovation gurus like Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerberg. And, of course, Elon Musk. After the movie, the actor impersonating the villain admitted that he had significantly based his character on Tesla's CEO, for “that mindset of men and technology being the greatest thing in the universe, that nothing else is a higher force and anything that nature throws at us, we'll deal with it”. The success of a handful of tech companies has indeed happened at a break-neck speed and was enough to get to anyone's head as their market capitalisation surpassed the GDP of several G7 countries. Yet, as quickly as it arose, this aura of invincibility is now fading away, following weeks of shrinking profits and mass layoffs of staff across the Big Tech companies. The reason is simple: during COVID, with millions of people stuck at home, digital services became a lifeline to continue running the world economy. Therefore, the stock market started seeing tech companies as safe-haven assets whose value could never decrease. Market capitalisation is not only based on the current value of a company but also on the expectations for the future. Therefore, the tech sector often runs the risk of being overestimated. What is more future-oriented than new technologies? Except that the bubble will burst when the financial markets and the real economy drift excessively apart, as it did in the late 1990s, following the arrival and spread of the internet. That is also why tech entrepreneurs are obsessed with finding the ‘next big thing'. The fear of missing the train is what keeps CEOs in Silicon Valley up at night. Incidentally, the new frontier of technological developments tends to be the projection of these businessmen's egos, from Bezos' obsession with space to Zuckerberg toying with the metaverse, and all the way to Musk's super app. However, magniloquent PR announcements can also backfire when you are not able to keep up with the hype. That's a lesson Zuckerberg must have painfully learned as he saw his wealth reduced by over $100 billion in little more than one year. The internet has increasingly moved toward a more immersive experience, from text-based social media like Facebook to image-centred Instagram. Hence, the evolution toward a three-dimensional online presence might seem like a natural step in this direction. However, Zuckerberg's gamble might have been premature, as this t

Where's the healthy happy medium between radical presence and reality-based pragmatism in a world that's off the rails? Can cynics be sages? Is culty behavior inevitable once you've reached rockstar levels of social influence as a spiritual teacher? In this first of two episodes with Eckhart Tolle, we did our best to not shit our pants a little while asking him about what separates ‘good' teachers from the scary ones, and how to cultivate an awakened state without falling down a cult rabbit hole. He's got some gems to share. After all, he's widely recognized as one of the most inspiring spiritual leaders in the world. His international bestsellers have been translated into 52 languages. And we can't verify this, but he might be one of the MOST quoted and/or misquoted contemporary spiritual gurus ever.

Along our healing journey, it can be tempting to think we are not HEALED ENOUGH for the relationship that we want, the career of our dreams, or that next level. We often get comfortable in our isolation growing stages because it has become predictable for us. But what if we ARE healed enough, we just don't know it? After listening to this episode, you will know for sure if you are ready for more, and gain the confidence to free yourself from the ego trap of never feeling healed enough. You will be ready to expand, heal deeper, and align with the life of your highest desires.

Summary: We discuss why we're changing the name of the podcast to not include "unconventional", explore why people have an aversion to owning their specialness and why it's an important and courageous step on the journey of self-realization. Mentioned on this episode:Wild Within's Oregon: Awaken (May 5 - 9)King Arthur: Legend of the SwordSeth GodinJordan B.

We must always inculcate the habit of being humble. Humility is a quality that will help us to be calm and act wisely when we have to achieve a task that is impossible.So, let us be humble and patient and think twice before making decisions.Ego is ‘Everything of me and nothing of you; Surrender is ‘Nothing of me and everything of you'.( https://saibalsanskaar.wordpress.com/2020/07/20/ego-causes-fall/)

Episode ini bikin kita ngerasa bahwa Podcast JCB adalah sebuah Ego Trap.

There seems to be a general surface level understanding of what the word "ego" actually entails, and it's long been framed in the negative - reserved for blowhard businessmen, or "egotistical" celebrities. BUT, everyone has an ego, and not all of us are narcissistic presidents, so how does your average Joe ego serve (and fail) you? Referencing the teachings of Eckhart Tolle (renowned expert of ego deconstruction) - and a touch of Buddhist theory - Elisha & Shannon dig in on what they believe the ego is, how it drives and "protects" us, and how to disentangle from its often unhealthy influence. Tackling the pretty big topic of "ego" is one of Elisha's current favorite hobbies (along with getting high on edibles and watching Ted Talks in bed with her New Friend), and Shannon's here to test our her new podcast voice on y'all, so you will not want to miss this honest, intensive delve into the great and powerful ego that directs us all from behind the curtain.   Do you want more content from us?

In this week's episode of The More You Know, I'm joined with Tommy Yu. Tommy has been practicing mindfulness and meditation for the past couple of years and he is here today to share his experiences and thoughts on it. There are several definitions of Meditation/Mindfulness, and this is one of my favorite topics to cover because there are so many variations of it that could fit your life. I hope that when I cover this topic you can develop your own sense of mindfulness and state of meditation from our examples. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/themoreyouknowpod/support

In today's show, Dr. Howk & Dr. Lisle discuss: 1. On your episode about the 2020 election, I was very surprised to hear the two of you lionize the sturdiness of American government when one of the central problems in American life, diet-related disease, is so largely attributable to lobbying. If government can be bought, how am I supposed to buy the idea of a reliable government? 2. How do people like the Esselstyns, Dr Campbell, and others not fall into the Ego Trap re: plant based eating? 3. Would you do a show addressing dating between men and women who are past their baby-making years? Those in their fifties and sixties or older who are widowed or divorced. As a 62 year old widow it seems most men just want something casual with no commitment. I want a commited partner. Any advice?   4. Last week I was crushed to hear Dr. Lisle say he is dead from an evolutionary prospective. As a an avid follower of Dr L, Dr H and BYG, this active 75 yr old woman is finished with with reproduction but still desiring social contact and certainly not ready to retreat from the village. I would love to hear you address the social needs of seniors who are open extroverts.

In today's show, the Dr's answer and discuss the following questions: 1. My high blood pressure medication is causing me to underperform in the bedroom to the point where I feel extremely anxious, embarrassed, and guilty that I am losing this part of myself to old age.    My doctor says it's either the meds or a stroke, so I follow her advice.   My wife is very supportive, but I can't help but feel guilty.  How can I help her understand that I do love her and that it's not her physical appearance that is causing my malfunction? 2. Eating foods that make you feel horribly bad. Why am I abusing myself in such manner? Can you help me understand the cycle? 3. When caught between the pleasure and ego trap for food is one way out to somehow get to the point that you know you can eat whatever you want but truly don't want to eat the high fat food? Or is the only way out to be sick and your life depends on it? 4. Can you provide a succinct, complete definition of the term, "Pleasure Trap" in your book of the same name? 5. I’m curious as to why and how we got it so wrong for so long with regards to genetics vs environment. We blame genetics for chronic diseases (diabetes, high cholesterol, cancer, etc), and we blame environment for our personalities, intelligence, behaviors, and life choices. When in reality, it’s the opposite. Who we are individually is genetic, and what diseases we get are driven mostly by environment (food and lifestyle). Once we found out the earth was round and revolves around the sun, most people caught on. How long do you think will it take for society to ‘catch on’ to the truth about genes and environment?

In a week that has practically been all about ego (via a polarized nation at each other's throats over the ultimate power position), how can any (or all) of this be used for both good and evil? And what valuable lessons can be learned on that front from the likes of Garry Shandling?

In today's episode, Dr. Lisle updates us on his thinking about the COVID-19 pandemic and current events surrounding lockdowns, death rates, and the future.  Two questions are answered and they are: 1. Question about war - I am fascinated about how humans can band together in tribes and kill eachother. They also will battle eachother while having hospitals right there to treat the wounded. I can understand fighting over resources but these days it seems to be more over ideologies than that. Do you have any evolutionary insight into this? Couldn't this potentially be detrimental to gene and species survival? 2. Why we are more inclined to have High Expectations even when they make us fall into Ego Trap while we don't like to have Lower Expectations even if they help us. Is this due to social-cultural messaging or upbringing? Or something else is the cause?

What does it actually take to begin a relationship with God? Wait for some kind of spiritual experience? Devote yourself to some sort of unselfish religious deed? Become a better person so God will ‘accept’ you? Today, I want to share with you my journey to finding God - and how it can help you to create radical new possibilities while at the same time, lifting the weight of the world off your shoulders.   Here Are The Show Highlights: A simple model for understanding what drives our behaviors (1:20) “The Ego Trap” you must avoid (3:40) How to take the weight of the world off your shoulders (14:00) Tapping into your power of NOT knowing to create new possibilities (15:35) The true definition of insanity (17:10) If you or somebody you know is looking to drop the ‘F’ Bomb of freedom in your life and break free from addiction, depression, anxiety or anything that’s making you feel flat-out stuck, head over to www.liberateaman.com and book a call where we can look at your situation and give you the roadmap you’ve been missing.

We start this episode with a question about the Enlightenment & Ego Trap - left over from last episode. The rest of the questions are about interacting with children/kids.   1.  I have a number of friends who come from difficult backgrounds – a family history of mental illness and/or abuse, poor decision-making, relative poverty and very little work experience. I’ve found that they’re generally unwilling to consider most basic employment options to alleviate their financial difficulties, figuring they are “better than” most realistic jobs and even enduring a great deal of debt to get dubious education credentials which – most anyone with a critical eye can see – are not going to simply leapfrog them into a high-paying job, especially given the lack of work history. Can the “ego trap” exist for those who don’t have much outside esteem coming in? Is it a form of deferral of failure? 2. I have a 2 yr old and another baby on the way. Being a dad is teaching me that I have to constantly fight my disagreeableness, because I am having to give more of myself to my kid and can't sustain trying to trade at 75/25 with him. My brain keeps telling me I am getting a bad deal with my kid, but I know I signed up for this and need your help beating my genes. What tactics or advice do you have for someone to at lease fake trading at less than 75/25 with a toddler?  3. Why kinds of adult things should generally be kept from kids, say 8-12 year olds? Is there any harm in letting them have unfiltered access to the internet, as long as we make sure they aren't getting into drugs or risk of pregnancy? In other words, to what age should they be kept fairly innocent, if at all, and why? 4.  This listener's question is about her mother, a school teacher, who lost her cool with an unruly child and had some significant resulting guilt.

In this show, we discuss showing weakness as a sexual strategy, then we move to a question about dominance hierarchies vs. competence hierarchy (is there a difference?).  Next question is about the mixed perceptions of evolutionary psychology.   Finally, Dr. Lisle then takes some time to discuss elements of the ego trap.   The questions are as follows: 1.  Do you think there are situations where a man showing weakness to a woman can be positive? Can women get away with it easily, or weakness also a signal of sexual interest when it comes to them? 2.Some people seem to be so driven to compete and rise to the top, however their internal audience is constantly asking them, “are you sure you’re not being too dominant? Is this step up worth it?”, either directly or indirectly in the form of general stress. Emotional stability seems to be a huge component in how this plays out on an individual basis.  I’d be curious if you think this competence/dominance inner battle is part of what plays into the pleasure trap. 3.I want to spread the truth of evolutionary psychology but I also don't want to hurt my mating chances by getting labeled a reject. Should I keep my evolutionary thoughts a secret and only explain it in easy to digest chic talk or should I spread these ideas with testicular fortitude? 4.I am wondering about how the ego trap might apply to people who have not been given reason for high expectations. In a sense, whether there is some interaction between the ego trap and the Dunning-Kruger effect of lower-capacity individuals being less likely to recognize their own limitations.  Can the “ego trap” exist for those who don’t have much outside esteem coming in? Is it a form of deferral of failure?

The second part of a 2-part show explaining the ego trap.  In this episode, we take questions from listeners about their own ego trap.

tentang gue atau kita yang terjebak dalam ego dan jadi orang super nyebelin

Welcome fellow Phoenixes. In new age circles, the concept of having the power to physically manifest our deepest desires is a common concept. We are taught we are the ultimate creators of our reality and we are in fact, god, everyone else is a reflection of us and every outside situation was manifested by our own minds whether conscious or unconscious. What if I told you all this was a lie, that we, by and large, are actually powerless over almost every aspect of everything around us. That would frighten many people. Today I am here to explain the power of powerlessness. https://spiritualphoenixstudios.com https://oracleatmushin.com --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/spiritual-phoenix-podcast/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/spiritual-phoenix-podcast/support

EGO trap: learn to listen to God's Voice.

Part 2 of Dr. Lisle's interview on Andrew Taylor's Spud Fit podcast.  He disusses the Myths of Moderation along with the Ego Trap with regards to making healthy lifestyle changes. 

Brandon and Nixie Marie talk about a listener's magical synchronistic review of the podcast, and they discuss the ways in which the ego can co-opt our spiritual life and use it to further separate us from others.

Motivation and expectations are supposed to go hand-in-hand.  The idea being - if you're expected to achieve a goal, your motivation kicks in to meet these expectations.  In this episode, Dr. Lisle goes over a concept called The Ego Trap.  Which is the trap we may find ourselves in if the expectations of our performance exceeds what we think we can reasonably accomplish.  Dr. Lisle describes this trap, how this process works, why it works the way it does, and how to effectively overcome it.    Copyright Beat Your Genes Podcast Host: Nathan Gershfeld Interviewee: Doug Lisle, Ph.D. www.BeatYourGenes.org Intro & outro song: City of Happy Ones · Ferenc Hegedus

Building self-worth is something that happens in childhood, and relies on people and events outside of you, whereas building self-esteem is a culmination of all the years of self-worth, and is something that relies on how you feel about yourself.  Then ego comes in and tries to spoil the road to high self-esteem, but there are ways to build and nurture all three so that you can tackle life a lot easier when the challenges present themselves.
