In this episode, Cindy Esliger talks about perspective and how our perspective of our work colors how we feel about it. Our brains love to tell stories about what we're doing, but if the story being told at work is always “I hate this,” we'll be in misery. Cindy poses the alternative option: getting our brains to tell a story about enjoyment, which can change our experience at work to one of curiosity or even excitement. So, how do we do that? How do we shift perspective? Cindy asks what motivates us more: fear or fun? We've been sold the lie that misery equals merit, that being challenged and pushing harder at work, feeling stressed and unhappy, makes us better at our jobs. But being miserable is not the only way to work. If we choose to enjoy what we do, then we can make the same work fun and see it through the lens of curiosity and motivation. Cindy shares four strategies to help us turn even the worst tasks into a bit more fun: 1) Gamify our work, 2) Pair it with a reward, 3) Turn it into a challenge, and 4) Add personal touches. Work isn't always fun. But Cindy encourages us to be proactive about our own motivation. Motivation, rooted in either fear or reward, is the fuel that gets us through work. So Cindy breaks down how to generate our own motivation in a way that makes the task easier and more enjoyable, with advice on overcoming dread with action. Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Turning Torture into TriumphAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

Summary In this episode, Tonya explores the tendency to compare ourselves to others, why we do it, and its potentially negative impact on our self-confidence and self-worth. She discusses the social comparison theory, the imposter syndrome, and the prevalent images in media as reasons why we compare ourselves to others. Tonya also explains the difference between comparing ourselves to others, overestimating others, and underestimating ourselves. She provides examples of when comparison can be positive and offers tips on how to stop overestimating others and underestimating ourselves. Takeaways Comparing ourselves to others is a natural tendency, but it can be limiting and detrimental to our self-confidence and self-worth. There are instances when comparison can be positive, such as setting benchmarks, gaining perspective, and creating accountability. Overestimating others and underestimating ourselves can distort our perception, lower our self-esteem, lead to inaction, and cause emotional strain. To stop overestimating others and underestimating ourselves, we should recognize our strengths, practice self-compassion, set realistic goals, seek feedback, surround ourselves with positive influences, engage in self-development, and visualize success. We should avoid unfair and inaccurate comparisons, dwelling on past failures, seeking external validation, downplaying our achievements, engaging in negative self-talk, isolating ourselves, and neglecting self-care. Sound Bites "Have you ever felt that others are more capable, more talented or just plain better than you? It's a common feeling." "Comparing ourselves to others is quite normal. We all do it." "Overestimating others and underestimating yourself means when we hold others in higher regard than we do ourselves, often believing that their achievements are greater or their skills superior."

In the heart of Naples, Florida, Baylor Barbee dives into a compelling discussion on leadership, perspective, and empowerment. This episode of Shark Theory is not one to miss for anyone looking to enhance their leadership muscle or for those intrigued by the dynamics of successful team management. Baylor recalls his experiences at a conference hosted by Call it Closed Realty and extracts valuable lessons from the brokerage's approach to leadership. Initial summary paragraphs set the scene as Baylor describes the picturesque setting of Naples and his interactions with the owners of Call it Closed Realty that left a lasting impression. He stresses the importance of leaders providing new perspectives to their teams, a technique exemplified during the conference which prompts individuals to think bigger and envision new possibilities beyond their current constraints. Baylor goes on to illustrate how approaching problems from different angles can aid in achieving greater success. He shares an anecdote about docking a boat amid challenging conditions, drawing parallels to strategic problem-solving in leadership scenarios. Baylor's insightful reflections encourage leaders to consider alternative approaches to tackling obstacles. Key Takeaways: Leaders should strive to constantly develop their leadership muscle by putting their teams in positions to gain new perspectives. Tackling problems head-on isn't always the best approach; strategically attacking from different angles can lead to more successful outcomes. Pouring into people and showing genuine care beyond their work output fosters a family-like atmosphere and leads to sustainable results. Great leaders invest in the personal development of their team, caring for them as individuals which translates into winning in business and life. Belief from a leader in their team can be the pivotal factor that transforms an individual's performance and success. Notable Quotes: "A great leader is somebody who puts his or her team in a position to have a new perspective." "Sometimes you have to sit back and think about it and say, okay, look, I know I have an adversity coming up... how can I attack it at an angle that's going to ensure my success?" "Do you look at your team as somebody that just has a name tag in a position... or do you care about them as people?" "If I help develop you as a person, then we're going to win bigger and we're going to win longer." "Maybe it's your belief in somebody under you that's going to make all the difference in the world for them."

Ryan reflects on the balance between work and family life and the importance of emotional intelligence in parenting. He shares his upbringing in a supportive community and the influence it had on his parenting style. The conversation concludes with a discussion on hobbies and activities for relaxation and the value of negotiating tactics and understanding others.Takeaways- Balancing work and family life is a constant challenge, but setting clear boundaries and prioritizing quality time with family can help create a healthier balance.- Emotional intelligence is crucial in parenting, as understanding and supporting children's emotional needs is just as important as meeting their physical needs.- The influence of upbringing on parenting styles and values is significant, and reflecting on one's own upbringing can provide valuable insights into parenting decisions.- Trusting your instincts and doing what you believe is right for your child is often the best approach, as no one knows your child better than you do.- Engaging in hobbies and activities that allow for hands-on work can be a form of relaxation and provide a sense of fulfillment outside of work and parenting.Please enjoy & subscribe!Chapters00:00 Introduction and Personal Updates03:40 Family Life and Holiday Celebrations06:09 Flighty App and Future Plans12:13 Balancing Work and Family Life13:33 Children Mimicking Parents' Behaviors15:19 Reflecting on Parenting Weaknesses16:43 Using Whiteboards for Parenting Goals18:27 Seeking Parenting Advice and Frameworks20:38 The Influence of Upbringing on Parenting22:13 Transitioning from Survival Mode to Intentional Parenting23:50 The Importance of Emotional Intelligence in Parenting25:01 The Impact of Culture on Parenting Styles26:46 The Role of Work-Life Balance in Parenting27:33 Reevaluating Priorities and Finding Fulfillment28:23 The Value of Connecting with Other Parents29:43 Gaining Perspective from Different Upbringings30:44 Parenting Styles and Emotional Development32:09 The Emotional Dimension of Life33:22 Recognizing the Privilege of a Stable Upbringing34:27 Choosing a Partner with Complementary Qualities35:31 Understanding and Supporting Emotional Needs36:41 The Impact of Parental Influence on Children38:00 The Challenges and Rewards of Parenting39:32 The Intuitive Nature of Parenting41:24 The Importance of Trusting Your Instincts42:52 Hobbies and Activities for Relaxation45:12 The Value of Working with Your Hands46:35 Negotiating Tactics and Understanding Others52:40 Conclusion and FarewellABOUT OUR GUEST:Ryan Jones is the Founder & CEO of the award-winning app Flighty – the modern flight tracker designed for passengers first.
