The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode 417 HOSTS: Kyle Bergman and Colin Ambler GUEST: Dr. Peter Boulden DESCRIPTION In this episode of The Extraction podcast, Dr. Peter Bolden shares his insights on dental practice growth, focusing on staff engagement, effective systems, and the transition from clinical work to business management. He emphasizes the importance of clarity in career goals, the need for robust systems in practice management, and the value of gamification in team engagement. Dr. Bolden also discusses the significance of delegation and finding one's zone of genius to achieve a successful dental practice. TAKEAWAYS Dr. Peter Bolden emphasizes the importance of staff engagement in practice growth. Identifying the right dental model is crucial for success in a new city. Transitioning from clinical work to business requires effective systems. Clarity in career goals can prevent a 'lost decade' in dentistry. Systems should be dynamic and regularly updated to avoid chaos. Gamification can enhance team engagement and accountability. Delegation is key to freeing up time for business development. Understanding your zone of genius helps in effective delegation. Revenue growth can facilitate the transition away from clinical work. Regular audits of daily activities can help identify bottlenecks.

Pressure, perfectionism, and overthinking—three traits that quietly sabotage golfers chasing freedom on the course. In this conversation, Andrew Reynolds, cognitive performance coach and founder of The COG Coach, breaks down what it truly means to play with freedom—and why most golfers never achieve it. He shares how to design practice that mirrors real pressure, add consequence to every rep, and build process-driven routines that hold up when the stakes rise. We explore the hidden cost of mental fatigue, how to protect cognitive energy over 18 holes, and the psychological "skill-development lag" that frustrates so many golfers chasing progress. Andrew also explains the three-step framework to reframe destructive self-talk, find safety in discomfort, and make your best golf automatic under pressure—whether you're grinding for your first club championship or a tour card. In this episode, you'll learn: What "playing with freedom" actually means—and how to create it on demand How to add consequence to practice so it transfers under pressure The accountability hacks that keep you in the hard reps (where skill grows) A simple blueprint for durable pre-shot and pre-round routines How to spot and reframe irrational self-talk in real time Managing cognitive energy and decision fatigue across 18 holes Why process beats results—and how to believe it when scores matter Get your pencils ready and start listening.  P.S.

Add consequence: Games with "must-complete" tasks (e.g., 3 fairways in a row) simulate tournament feels. Quality beats quantity: Short, intense, focused sessions > marathon ball-beating. Protect cognitive energy: Strong routines reduce decision fatigue and steady your state under stress. Reframe the story: Emotions come from interpretation; catch absolutes ("always/never") and replace them with rational truth. Calibrate emotion: Even "negative" emotions can be adaptive when properly dialed. Detach from score: Commit to the shot in front of you; outcome improves as a byproduct. Key Quotes: "Make practice look like the golf course, not the course look like practice." "Consequence is the fastest way to simulate pressure." "The hard, uncomfortable reps are where skill is actually built." "Pick a target, visualize, commit—that's the billboard I'd put on every tee." "It's not the first tee that makes you anxious; it's the story you tell yourself about it." "Process is part of outcome—not something separate from it." "There's a skill-development lag: keep going through it instead of restarting with a new method."

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop sits down with Guillermo Schulte to explore how AI is reshaping up-skilling, re-skilling, and the future of education through play, from learning games and gamification to emotional intelligence, mental health, and the coming wave of abundance and chaos that technology is accelerating; they also get into synchronous vs. asynchronous learning, human–AI collaboration, and how organizations can use data-driven game experiences for cybersecurity, onboarding, and ongoing training. To learn more about Guillermo's work, check out TGAcompany.com, as well as TGA Entertainment on Instagram and LinkedIn.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop opens with Guillermo Schulte on up-skilling, re-skilling, and AI's accelerating impact on work.05:00 They explore play-based learning, video games as education, and early childhood engagement through game mechanics.10:00 Conversation shifts to the overload in modern schooling, why play disappeared, and the challenge of scalable game-based learning.15:00 Guillermo contrasts synchronous vs asynchronous learning and how mobile access democratizes education.20:00 They reflect on boredom, creativity, novelty addiction, and how AI reshapes attention and learning.25:00 Discussion moves to AGI speculation, human discernment, taste, and embodied decision-making.30:00 They explore unpredictable technological leaps, exponential improvement, and the future of knowledge.35:00 Abundance, poverty decline, and chaos—both from scarcity and prosperity—and how societies adapt.40:00 Mental health, emotional well-being, and organizational responsibility become central themes.45:00 Technical training through games emerges: cybersecurity, Excel, and onboarding with rich data insights.50:00 Guillermo explains the upcoming platform enabling anyone to create AI-powered learning games and personalized experiences.Key InsightsAI is accelerating the urgency of up-skilling and re-skilling. Guillermo highlights how rapid technological change is transforming every profession, making continuous learning essential for remaining employable and adding value in a world where machines increasingly handle routine tasks.Play is humanity's native learning tool—and video games unlock it for adults. He explains that humans are wired to learn through play, yet traditional education suppresses this instinct. Learning games reintroduce engagement, emotion, and curiosity, making education more intuitive and scalable.Gamified, asynchronous learning can democratize access. While synchronous interaction is powerful, Guillermo emphasizes that mobile-first, game-based learning allows millions—including those without resources—to gain skills anytime, closing gaps in opportunity and meritocracy.Emotional intelligence will matter more as AI takes over technical tasks. As AI becomes increasingly capable in logic-heavy fields, human strengths like empathy, leadership, creativity, and relationship-building become central to meaningful work and personal fulfillment.Novelty and boredom shape how we learn and think. They discuss how constant novelty can stunt creativity, while boredom creates the mental space for insight. Future learning systems will need to balance stimulation with reflection to avoid cognitive overload.Abundance will bring psychological challenges alongside material benefits. Stewart and Guillermo point out that while AI and robotics may create unprecedented prosperity, they may also destabilize identity and purpose, amplifying the already-growing mental health crisis.AI-powered game creation could redefine education entirely. Guillermo describes TGA's upcoming platform that lets anyone transform documents into personalized learning games, using player data to adapt difficulty and style—potentially making learning more effective, accessible, and enjoyable than traditional instruction.

Dans beaucoup d'usines pharma, le pilotage qualité ressemble encore à un bulletin scolaire. Pourcentage de backlog, déviations en retard, capas non clôturées, tout est orienté sur ce qui ne va pas. Résultat. les équipes vivent les indicateurs comme une sanction, pas comme un outil pour progresser. Une idée intéressante consiste à déplacer le focus. Plutôt que gamifier la clôture des déviations (comme on en avait parlé dans l'épisode 7 en 2020...), qui risque de pousser à bâcler les investigations, pourquoi ne pas gamifier la qualité proactive ? Concrètement, cela veut dire récompenser tout ce qui se passe avant la déviation. Par exemple :

Welkom bij een nieuwe aflevering van Verhalen in Veiligheid, waarin Sybren van der Schaarte te gast is. Hij legt uit hoe je in fabrieken de productie kunt verhogen door barrières bij managers weg te nemen, medewerkers meer autonomie te geven en het werk speelser te maken met eenvoudige spelelementen. Praktische inzichten: observeer de werkvloer, stel vragen in plaats van ongevraagd advies, leer mensen hulp te vragen en differentieer naar individuele behoeften — zo stijgt motivatie, samenwerking en output. Veel luisterplezier!

Wir haben uns kurz nach der Jahrtausendwende kennen gelernt und hätten fast mal zusammen in einer Redaktion gearbeitet.

Der Krieg wird zum Computerspiel. Ein ukrainisches Drohnenangriffssystem belohnt Soldaten, die Treffer erzielen, mit Punkten. Diese können sie in einem Amazon-ähnlichen Onlineshop einlösen, um dort weitere Waffen zu kaufen. Während die Regierung das System als Motivationshilfe feiert, warnen Beobachter vor einer gefährlichen Entfremdung vom realen Kriegsgeschehen.

Most teams, people and companies don't have a motivation problem - they have a design problem.In this episode I sit down with Ricardo Lopes Costa, founder and CTO of Funifier from Brazil and the author of "The Fantastic Engagement Factory: how to motivate people on a large scale with gamification". We uncover how gamification, psychology, and smart feedback loops can turn apathetic workflows into performance engines people actually want to use. Ricardo's company, Funifier, has worked with global brands like Coca-Cola, HP, Banco do Brasil, and Caixa Econômica Federal, helping them turn dry KPIs into dynamic challenges that spark human motivation — often with billion-dollar impact. Ricardo shares how:A small experiment with locked online lessons accidentally sparked his obsession with engagement.A single leaderboard turned learning into a movement across Brazil.Caixa's “Tamo Junto 9Bi+” initiative became the world's largest gamification case — driving over $1 billion USD in additional profit in just months.Recognition and belonging often outperform money when it comes to performance.Even small businesses — from cupcake stands to ice-cream shops — can gamify experiences to make people participate more.Why the future of leadership lies in designing human experiences, not just managing numbers.“Engagement is not a bonus — it's an asset, just like money or technology.” — Ricardo Lopes CostaIf you're a leader, HR professional, or entrepreneur who wants to build teams that care, perform, and grow — this episode will show you how to make motivation measurable.Key TakeawaysMotivation is designable — when you treat engagement like a system, not a feeling.Recognition > rewards: appreciation drives sustained effort more than money.Start small: pick one unmotivated area, personalize it, make it visible, make it fun.Emotional design is the missing layer in most transformation and culture projects.Everyone — even small businesses — can use gamification principles to spark engagement.

Last week, I talked about how to boost your influence as a UX leader by focusing on the right activities and building your reputation. This week, I want to explore something closely related. How do you actually shift your organization's culture to be more user-centered?I know that sounds like a lot of work. And yes, there is effort involved. But if you've been applying what we've covered in previous lessons, you've likely done much of the groundwork already. Plus, culture hacking can be surprisingly fun.Four approaches to culture hackingThere are four main techniques you can use to embed UX into your organization's DNA:Engagement and collaboration. You're probably doing this already in your day-to-day work. The goal is to amp it up and bring more people into the UX conversation.Education and awareness. We've talked about this extensively in earlier lessons. It's about helping colleagues understand what UX is and why it matters.Feedback and iteration. Creating systems that give people ongoing visibility into how users experience your products.Celebration and reinforcement. Recognizing and highlighting UX wins to build momentum.Let me walk through each of these with some practical examples you can try.Engagement and collaborationThis is about bringing people together and getting them excited about user experience. A few tactics that work well:Hackathons. Organize events where diverse teams collaborate on user-centered solutions. The emphasis should be on creativity and fun. Let people dream up great experiences without getting bogged down in compliance issues or technical limitations.UX champions. Find people across your organization who already care about user experience. There will be more than you think. Create a space where they can come together, whether in Teams or Slack, to share experiences and frustrations. Share educational materials with them. Invest in these people so they become UX ambassadors across the organization.Inclusive workshops. Consider traditional workshops but expand who you invite. Include people from legal or compliance teams. The more you engage with them, the more they'll understand what you do. And the more willing they'll be to adapt their way of working to support better user experiences.Education and awarenessHere are some techniques for building UX awareness that go beyond standard training:Storytelling sessions. Run lunch-and-learns where you get people together for 20 to 30 minutes. But instead of presenting UX best practices, ask people to share terrible user experiences they've encountered. Not from your company, obviously. People love sharing their frustrations. It builds empathy for what users go through.Gamification. Introduce game-like elements to incentivize stakeholders. I once created a leaderboard ranking different departments based on their ability to deliver outstanding experiences. Instead of boring monthly analytics reports filled with vanity metrics, we showed UX performance metrics that sparked healthy competition between teams.Empathy training. Create exercises to help stakeholders put themselves in users' positions. This might involve completing user tasks themselves, viewing pages for limited time periods to simulate scanning behavior, or sitting in on user testing sessions.Culture hack days. Dedicate time for teams to discuss how to create a more user-centric organization. Ask them directly what needs to change and encourage brainstorming sessions.Feedback and iterationVisual management tools. Use dashboards or leaderboards to display user feedback and UX project metrics. Keep UX goals visible and actionable.For example, in one organization where I worked, we updated the content management system with a new, user-centric information architecture. To help content creators adapt, we created a dashboard showing their responsible pages alongside user feedback. We included a simple poll asking users if they found each page useful. We provided tips for improvement right there in the dashboard. It created a continuous feedback loop that kept people engaged with how users experienced their content.Celebration and reinforcementIt's important to build up your colleagues and acknowledge success. Celebrate user milestones and project successes related to UX improvements. When you celebrate, focus on the product owner and team rather than individual contributions. Highlight the techniques they used and the results they achieved. Try to attach financial value when you can.Consider implementing recognition programs. Annual awards for the most user-centric people or teams can work well. It might seem cheesy, but it generates genuine excitement around user experience.Finally, maintain regular check-ins with product owners and stakeholders. Hold discussions about UX best practices, share updates, and celebrate progress to sustain momentum and enthusiasm.Outie's AsideIf you're a freelancer or agency working with clients, culture hacking looks a bit different. You can't restructure their organization or set up internal champion networks. But you can plant seeds.Try running a single culture hack day as part of your engagement. Frame it as a workshop where you facilitate discussion about barriers to great user experiences. You're not telling them what to change. You're helping them identify it themselves.Another approach is to create mini feedback loops within your project scope. If you're redesigning a section of their site, set up a simple dashboard showing before-and-after user feedback. When stakeholders see real user reactions to improvements, it often sparks wider conversations about user-centered culture. You're modeling what ongoing UX practice could look like.The key is showing, not telling. Demonstrate the value through contained examples they can then scale internally.Marketing UX internallyThese four techniques give you a solid foundation for culture hacking. But there's one thread running through all of this. The need to actively market and promote user experience across your organization.Next week, I'll explore specific tactics to proactively market UX design within your organization. Because sometimes being good at UX isn't enough. You need to be good at talking about it too.

Matt and Jen discuss the importance of persistence over boredom in achieving goals. They emphasize that people often quit due to boredom rather than difficulty. They present a three-step framework to combat boredom: reframing tasks as habits, gamifying routines to maintain motivation, and reconnecting to your "why" by focusing on identity, legacy, and freedom. They highlight that consistency, even in mundane tasks, leads to long-term success. They also suggest using affirmations to reinforce your identity and purpose, aiming to outlast boredom and achieve desired outcomes.Listen In!Thank you for listening to this episode of Ignite Your Impact!As referenced in the show you can visit our website at phenixmethod.comJoin our Private Group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/phenixmethodbodyandlifestyletransformations for lifestyle transformation hacks that the pros use.

We kick off part one of our two-part series by exploring how gamification can make saving money feel less like a chore and more like a motivating challenge. Even high-income earners often feel stuck when it comes to saving, not because they lack discipline, but because they've already checked the big boxes—maxed out retirement accounts, built up emergency funds—and then don't know what to do next. Without a plan, spending creeps in to fill the gap. So we look at how to turn savings into a game—something with rules, progress, and rewards—to reignite momentum.We clarify that knowing you should save doesn't automatically lead to action. That's where gamification steps in. Tools like Qapital show that users who engage with automation and gaming strategies save more and stay more engaged. We also reference employer-based incentives like those offered through Secure 2.0, where bonuses are tied to increased retirement contributions.One easy place to start is by automating just one transfer—no matter how small—to reduce decision fatigue. Then, to make it stick, we frame savings as something familiar and motivating. For example, we explore the idea of treating savings like a “debt to your future self,” flipping a psychologically powerful habit like debt aversion into a positive financial behavior.Amy shares a client case study of a high-earning couple who couldn't get traction with savings—until they started treating their savings goal like a debt that needed to be paid off. That mindset shift helped them redirect thousands per month into future-focused goals.Then we move into more playful territory, introducing practical games to get people started. These include “Level Up” savings, where every $500 or $1,000 milestone brings a sense of progress; “No Spend” challenges, focused on key problem areas like Amazon or takeout; and visual trackers like progress bars stuck on the fridge. Even simple things like rounding up purchases and transferring the change can reinforce good habits.The big takeaway is to pick one area where spending tends to leak—Amazon, dining out, etc.—and pair it with one of these gamified saving techniques. You can even stack methods for greater impact. The key is to make saving easier, more visual, and more rewarding—so it becomes a behavior you actually want to continue.In part two, we'll dive deeper into building out a full gamified system with recovery plans, rewards, and design tips. For now, we encourage listeners to find just one game that resonates and start today.

Emmy's Gamification of Charity: A Hit or Miss? In a recent podcast episode, the hosts dissect the unconventional charity initiative at the Emmy Awards, where host Nate Bargatze pledged $100,000 to the Boys and Girls Clubs of America. The twist: the donation amount would decrease based on the length of celebrity speeches, while shorter speeches would add to the fund. Despite the initial $100,000 dropping by $60,000 due to long speeches, Bargatze and CBS ultimately donated $350,000. The hosts debated the merits of this gamified approach to philanthropy. Critics argue it cheapens the serious work of nonprofits and aligns charity with guilt and shame. Conversely, supporters highlight the significant funds raised and the increased visibility for the Boys and Girls Clubs, as evidenced by a spike in Google searches. They argue that such creative fundraising efforts engage the public and inject fun into philanthropy.

Balancing leadership, family, and chaos isn't about perfection — it's about presence, action, and authenticity.In Episode 205 of The Profitable Cleaner Podcast, we sit down with Amy, COO of Marrow, wife, and mom of four, to unpack the lessons she's learned from rafting rivers, running companies, and raising a family.From guiding whitewater rapids to managing multiple businesses, Amy has mastered the art of chaos management — and her principle of “hesitation is devastation” applies as much to life and leadership as it does to rafting.In this episode, you'll learn:✅ Why hesitation is devastation in both business and life✅ How to build an honest, evolving partnership in work and family✅ The myth of “work-life balance” (and why tension is more accurate)✅ How to conserve energy in the right spaces so you can lead with impact✅ Legacy vs. lifestyle: how to define success on your own terms✅ Why giving yourself time to think is essential as a leader✅ How authenticity attracts the right people — and filters out the wrong onesThis conversation is equal parts practical and personal, designed for leaders in the cleaning and facility services industry who are navigating growth, family, and purpose.

In this fascinating episode of Parallax, Dr Ankur Kalra sits down with Dr Alexander Fanaroff, an interventional cardiologist, clinical trialist, and behavioral economist at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr Fanaroff brings a unique perspective to cardiovascular medicine, combining his expertise in interventional cardiology with cutting-edge insights from behavioral economics to transform how we approach patient care and clinical decision-making. Dr Fanaroff demystifies behavioral economics for the medical community, explaining how this field studies real-world decision-making beyond traditional economic models. He introduces key concepts like status quo bias, prospect theory, and the power of defaults in shaping both physician and patient behaviors. Through compelling examples, including Penn's successful intervention that increased 90-day statin prescriptions from 70% to 90% simply by changing EHR defaults, Dr Fanaroff demonstrates how small design changes can yield significant clinical improvements. Looking beyond individual interventions, Dr Fanaroff discusses how behavioral economics can address healthcare disparities by creating system-wide improvements that lift all patients while specifically targeting underserved communities. He envisions a future where AI identifies at-risk patients from routine imaging, and where interventional cardiologists focus not just on procedural excellence but on ensuring optimal long-term medical management through thoughtfully designed care systems.

The wait is over. In this follow-up to our origin story, we're officially pulling the curtain all the way back and unveiling what Project B has been all along: The Fitness League — a fitness platform built for busy humans who want to train smarter, live stronger, and actually enjoy the process. In this episode, we share how this project came to life after walking away from Fit Coach Pro, and why The Fitness League isn't just an app — it's a movement. A community. A new standard. We're talking: The full vision behind The Fitness League How we're using tech to make fitness personal (and fun) Why we believe gamifying health can change how people show up The core values driving everything we build What to expect as a member of the League If you've ever felt like fitness apps were built for someone else's life — this one's for you. We didn't just build another app. We built what we wished existed. And it will soon be yours too.
