In this thought-provoking episode of "Father and Joe," Joe Rockey and Father Boniface invite listeners to embark on a profound exploration of the indispensable role the Church has played in shaping our modern world. The episode begins with Joe recounting a vivid mental image of the crucifixion as a catalyst for the birth of the Church, underscoring the intimate relationship between Jesus and Mary at that pivotal moment. This visualization leads to a broader introspection about the myriad aspects of life we often take for granted, much like electricity during a power outage.Father Boniface expands on this notion, emphasizing how the Church has been the bedrock of countless modern advancements. Contrary to popular belief, the Church's influence extends well beyond spiritual guidance to include nurturing the growth of science, art, education, healthcare, and even the very foundations of Western civilization. From Galileo and Kepler to the architectural marvels that dot our urban landscapes, the Church's contributions are immeasurable.The conversation takes a practical turn, as Father Boniface and Joe challenge listeners to imagine a world without these contributions—a world where essential moral frameworks, scientific inquiry, and artistic endeavors never reached their full potential. The Church's historical commitment to fostering intellectual curiosity and compassion has provided humanity with tools to face the future with hope and innovation.Listeners are encouraged to appreciate the profound interconnectedness of human endeavor and divine inspiration. This episode highlights the importance of recognizing and nurturing the unique talents each of us brings to the table, advancing the Church's mission in diverse, meaningful ways. As we make use of our gifts to benefit others, we build on a legacy of faith-driven achievements that have sculpted both past and present.Join Joe and Father Boniface in this enriching dialogue that calls upon each of us to rediscover the foundations of our faith, recognize the Church's unseen influence in our lives, and aspire to contribute to its enduring mission. Together, let's engage with our spirituality, cultivate gratitude for our shared history, and step into our roles as active participants in a community bound by love, purpose, and faith.Tags:Faith, Church, Spirituality, Community, Purpose, Gratitude, Science and Faith, Historical Influence, Modern Civilization, Intellectual Curiosity, Artistic Contribution, Healthcare, Education, Western Civilization, Modern Science, Personal Talents, Contribution, Spiritual Direction, Divine Inspiration, Legacy, Innovation, Moral Frameworks, Global Influence, Relationship with God, Individual Calling, Society, Dependence, Forward-Looking, Creativity, Compassion, Hope, God, Love, Western Values, Empowerment, Fellowship, Historical Accounts, Contentment, Fulfillment, Meaningful Service, Connection, Modern Church.Hashtags:#FaithJourney, #RediscoverChurch, #SpiritualDirection, #GratitudeInFaith, #ChurchContributions, #HistoryOfScience, #FaithAndScience, #CulturalHeritage, #SpiritualGrowth, #PurposefulLiving, #CommunityInFaith, #WesternCivilization, #ArtAndFaith, #DivineInspiration, #RoleOfChurch, #MoralValues, #IntellectualCuriosity, #SpiritualAwakening, #EducationalImpact, #HealthcareLegacy, #HumanConnection, #ChurchAndModernity, #GlobalFaith, #RelationshipWithGod, #ChurchInfluence, #SpiritualLegacy, #CreativityAndFaith, #CompassionateLiving, #ModernGod, #EmpowermentThroughFaith, #LegacyOfTheChurch, #FellowshipTogether, #HistoricalInfluence, #GodAndCulture, #ContentmentInFaith, #ServingWithLove, #CulturalImpact, #BuildingTheFuture, #FaithAndHope.

Even those with deep-seated skepticism can experience profound shifts in faith. Julie Hannah, a retired university lecturer of mathematics, set out to discredit religious claims but instead discovered a new depth of understanding in the teachings of Jesus Christ. Her journey from agnosticism to faith is a testament to the transformative power of inquiry and introspection. A Lifelong Quest for Meaning Julie's early life was shaped by a secular upbringing, where she was encouraged to question traditional religious narratives. This skepticism led her to explore philosophical ideologies such as existentialism, stoicism, and nihilism. She also ventured into various religious traditions, including Taoism, Buddhism, Islam, and Hinduism, searching for a cohesive explanation of human existence. Despite her extensive exploration, none of these belief systems satisfied her intellectual curiosity. The Turning Point: Encountering the New Testament Julie approached the Christian scriptures with the same critical mindset she applied to other religious texts, initially aiming to discredit them. However, her study of the New Testament, particularly the four Gospels, revealed a level of intellectual and spiritual depth she hadn't expected. Jesus's teachings, parables, and debates captivated her, offering answers to questions she had long grappled with. Contrary to her initial skepticism, Julie found in Jesus a figure who embodied both divine wisdom and human empathy. The Evolution of Faith and Scholarship After years of study and introspection, Julie's intellectual pursuit gave way to a deeper spiritual realization. Her first book, A Skeptic's Investigation into Jesus, captured her journey from skepticism to belief, offering readers an analytical yet deeply personal account of her transformation. In her latest work, The Seventh Covenant, Julie takes a more immersive approach, blending historical fiction with religious insight, allowing readers to experience the world of first-century Palestine through the eyes of her characters.

Those who know Fareed Zakaria through his weekly column or CNN show may he surprised to learn he considers books the important way he can put new ideas in the world. But Fareed's original aspiration was to be an academic, and it was a chance lunch with Walter Isaacson that convinced him to apply for a job as editor of Foreign Affairs instead of accepting an assistant professorship at Harvard. His latest book, Age of Revolutions: Progress and Backlash from 1600 to the Present is a testament to his enduring passion for ideas and his belief in the importance of classical liberalism in an age of increasing populism and authoritarianism. Tyler sat down with Fareed to discuss what he learned from Khushwant Singh as a boy, what made his father lean towards socialism, why the Bengali intelligentsia is so left-wing, what's stuck with him from his time at an Anglican school, what's so special about visiting Amritsar, why he misses a more syncretic India, how his time at the Yale Political Union dissuaded him from politics, what he learned from Walter Isaacson and Sam Huntington, what put him off academia, how well some of his earlier writing as held up, why he's become focused on classical liberal values, whether he had reservations about becoming a TV journalist, how he's maintained a rich personal life, and more.

Yours Truly Johnny Dollar followed by The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet

In today's episode, Tom Campbell (CEG's Community Manager) and Susan Tree (a college counseling and admissions legend with 40+ years of experience) chat about “intellectual curiosity”: a quality that many colleges actively look for in students, yet is a little more ambiguous and nuanced compared to mapping out a high school course plan. This is part 2 of a series about students' academic background and interests and how they factor into the admissions process. Part 1 is about all things related to the academic part of a student's college application— which, at many selective colleges, is seen as the “foot in the door” of their selection process. On the episode you'll hear Susan and Tom discuss: Identifying an academic superpower and framing it in that way in your college application How coming across as "too complete" to colleges (as in, you have no bigger questions you'd like to solve) can actually make your application less competitive How to infuse intellectual curiosity into your supplemental essays Showing academic and nonacademic alignment for particularly popular majors Hope you enjoy. Play-by-Play 1:38 - Reframing your accomplishments as superpowers 7:12 - Identifying your learning style among Architects, Gardeners, and Explorers 10:22 - Why colleges want different types of learners   13:52 - Why communicating what you're curious about to admissions officers is a good idea  15:07 - Staying in touch with who you are on your application  19:17 - Understanding the pressure to present a complete version of yourself 22:55 - An example of showing intellectual curiosity through supplemental essays  26:44 - The value of curiosity in non-academic spaces 32:52 - How highly-selective colleges evaluate quality vs. quantity in their applicants 38:51 - What is academic alignment vs. non-academic alignment? How does this impact the way colleges read applications? 43:34 - What if your high school doesn't offer specialized programs to help you explore your intellectual curiosity?   46:49 - Final thoughts Resources Episode 403: AP, IB, Honors, Oh My!: How Admissions Officers View Your High School Courses, Rigor, and School Context (with Susan Tree) How to Choose a College Major (Step-by-step) How to Write the "Why this Major" College Essay What the Heck are "Hooks" and "Institutional Priorities"?

As we approach the November 1st early decision and early action deadline, we delve into an exciting yet perplexing aspect of college applications - the unique supplements, with a particular focus on the University of Chicago. Key Points: UChicago's Unconventional Approach: UChicago is notorious for its unconventional supplements that challenge applicants to think outside the box. It's often seen as the "fun goes to die" school, but that couldn't be further from the truth. This institution is on the lookout for disruptively creative and intelligent students who can make a difference. Insight into the Culture: UChicago's supplement questions are a window into the university's culture. They reveal what the school values in a student and the kind of intellectual environment they seek to foster. Open-Ended Prompts: UChicago's supplement questions are deliberately open-ended. They encourage applicants to take risks and, most importantly, have fun. This might be challenging, especially in a 250-word essay where you need to discuss your desire for a specific kind of learning and how the university fits into that. Intellectual Curiosity and Creativity: Rather than traditional essays, UChicago seeks to gauge your intellectual curiosity and creativity. How deeply do you love your chosen subject? How does your passion manifest in your writing? It's not about being a comedian; it's about being yourself, expressing your personality, and provoking thought. Demonstrating Creativity: To succeed at UChicago, applicants must break free from the expected and demonstrate intellectual creativity. An example is an applicant who humorously discussed a "batha Maddix" course due to a printer error, using baths as an analogy for mathematical concepts. This creative approach impressed the admissions committee. Conclusion UChicago's essay prompts are a challenge, but there's no definitive "right answer." The admissions team isn't looking for a template response. They want to see how you approach unfamiliar and unconventional questions, revealing your unique thought process. It's a chance to be unapologetically yourself, strip away pretenses, and let your personality shine. UChicago is about celebrating disruptive thinking, and if that resonates with you, this is your chance to join a community that values intellectual creativity. Explore their past essay questions for inspiration, and remember, your application is an opportunity to speak from the heart. If UChicago's culture aligns with your personality, embrace the challenge and let your unique self shine. Wishing you the best of luck in the coming weeks!

You'll learn how to think ahead of get ready for what's next in this conversation with Rod Santomassimo. Rod is the founder and president of The Massimo Group, a leading national commercial real estate coaching and consulting organization. He has more than 20 years of experience in the commercial real estate industry as a broker, owner, and manager of local, regional, and international firms. Rod is a best-selling author with books that include Brokers Who Dominate, Teams Built to Dominate, Knowing Isn't Doing, and most recently, Dominators of Commercial Real Estate Brokerage.   In the interview, Rod discusses the pandemic as an accelerator that led to hybrid working, telecommuting, and teleconferences, among other advances. He also covers ways to leverage AI to stay on top of trends and make processes more efficient. “What's happening right now in AI and the AI world is the greatest accelerant that we have ever seen in our history in regards to what is possible and how quickly it can happen,” he shares. When discussing the key attributes to look for in a broker, Rod suggests searching for an advisory figure. While a broker's role is often viewed as a facilitator of the transaction, the true dominating brokers will focus on the facilitation of a relationship. “That's what matters,” Rod says. “One question I would always ask a broker is, ‘Tell me a time where you advised your client not to sell.'” He also mentions seeking a broker who is a specialist or has a team of specialists. In addition, he states, “One mistake that most investors make is they focus on the fee versus the result.”   To find more opportunities, Rod mentions the power of creating a presence pyramid. This consists of personal, physical, and digital layers. Establishing a presence as either a broker or investor in the marketplace can help you reach a broader audience and gain credibility in the space. “Presence is paramount in everything you do,” Rod says. During the episode, Rod encourages listeners to find a mentor and ask three questions when connecting: What's new? What's next? What do you need? “Intellectual curiosity will be the way to grow—be the doer,” he adds. You can connect with Rod at his website The Massimo Group and find his books on the Resources page.

WHYlennial is back for Season 3! In this episode Nick is joined by his friend and coworker Kelly and they spend time talking about intellectual curiosity, K-12 education, and why being a know-it-all is a good thing.

Fostering Intellectual Curiosity: A Conversation with Educator, Matt Gainsley In this episode, your host, Thomas Caleel, sits down with his long-time friend and esteemed educator, Matt Gainsley. With over 20 years of teaching experience, Matt has been inspiring and stimulating intellectual curiosity in students for more than two decades. Join us as we explore the importance of intellectual curiosity, the evolving dynamics in education, and the impact of parental involvement, and why a college degree doesn't necessarily define who you are.  Want to be a guest? Send us an email at hello@thomascaleel.com to apply!  Key Points: The importance of intellectual curiosity in the learning process is the primary focus of this episode. Thomas and Matt discuss the shifting dynamics in education, where parents, students, and schools interact in unique ways today. Matt shares his personal journey into teaching, and how when he started college he didn't necessarily think he was going to end up in education.  Matt reflects on the changing teacher-student relationships and emphasizes the need for students to take responsibility for their own learning. Parents' role in supporting their children's education is vital, but there should be a balance between involvement and allowing the child to grow independently. The frenzy around college admissions and early childhood education is discussed, with Matt offering valuable insights on achievement and finding the right school. The concept of a "good school" is explored, highlighting the importance of a school that works best for an individual's needs and goals. How Matt 'walks the walk' by teaching a class on the "History of Hip Hop" something he is deeply passionate about.  Why universities now recognize the value of depth of involvement and passion in applicants. Encourages students to pursue their passions, even if it means deviating from the conventional path. Willingness to embrace interests fosters deeper connections with fellow humans and enriches lives. Parents, students, and educators alike can gain valuable lessons from this conversation on how to navigate the changing landscape of education and support the growth of young minds.

This episode of Inside EMS is brought to you by Lexipol, the experts in policy, training, wellness support and grants assistance for first responders and government leaders. To learn more, visit lexipol.com. In this episode of Inside EMS, Cohosts Chris Cebollero and Kelly Grayson dive into critical thinking. They point out the need to teach EMT students how to make the leap from linear to critical thinking, and the key critical thinking skills needed to make decisions: Being curious: Asking the question why Reasoning Self-awareness Memorable quotes from this episode “Critical thinking is all about the discipline of being able to take in information to experience what's happening, to have a good observation of what's happening and to reason and make the best decisions that we can.” “I think one of the hallmarks of intelligence is intellectual curiosity.” “This is a missing component of critical thinking. Just because we've gotten some information doesn't mean that information is acted on without good analysis.” “When you can divorce yourself emotionally from the information that you're processing, it makes it much easier to analyze.” Together, they discuss: Linear thinking vs. critical thinking Taking emotions out of thinking Emotional intelligence Falling victim to confirmation bias

In this episode of The Vivek Show, Vivek Ramaswamy and Mike Rowe explore a range of topics related to the changing perceptions around skilled trades, the role of education, and the importance of intellectual curiosity in the American workforce. The conversation begins with Rowe introducing his mikeroweWORKS Foundation, aimed at promoting opportunities in skilled trades that don't require a four-year degree, providing insights into success stories of the program participants. The discussion evolves to touch upon the societal perceptions of alternative education, including vocational training, in comparison to traditional degrees. They debate if cultural hierarchy will continue to mirror the economic hierarchy and how technology has impacted access to education. Fostering intellectual curiosity and avoiding one-dimensional definitions of skilled workers are further deliberated upon, underscoring the importance of celebrating the totality of what it means to be a functional, independent worker in today's economy. They delve into the significance of being a well-rounded individual and the pitfalls of specialization, while examining the current educational landscape and its tendency towards specialization. Rowe also shares his personal journey of choosing community college over a debt-inducing four-year university, and they contemplate the negative stereotypes attached to certain professions.--Donate here: https://t.co/PE1rfuVBmbFor more content follow me here:Twitter - @VivekGRamaswamyInstagram - @vivekgramaswamyFacebook - http://facebook.com/VivekGRamaswamyTruth Social - @VivekRamaswamyRumble - @VivekRamaswamy--Time-codes:00:00:40: Mike Rowe introduces Microworks Foundation, aiming to promote opportunities in skilled trades that don't require a four-year degree.00:04:16: Rowe shares success stories of individuals who have leveraged the Microworks program to achieve six-figure salaries without college debt.00:07:43: The perception of alternative education, including vocational training, as a less desirable option compared to traditional degrees is discussed.00:09:57: Rowe and Ramaswamy debate if cultural and economic hierarchies will continue to align or diverge.00:11:56: Rowe emphasizes how technology has widened access to education, altering the value proposition of traditional higher education.00:15:40: The importance of intellectual curiosity in the American workforce is underscored.00:17:00: Rowe opines that skilled workers should not be restricted to one-dimensional notions of hardworking people.00:19:00: Ramaswamy highlights the need to appreciate the totality of what it means to be an independent, functional worker in the economy.00:23:46: The conversation covers the importance of being a well-rounded individual and the risks of becoming overly specialized.00:31:41: Rowe shares his decision to attend community college to avoid unnecessary financial burden, emphasizing informed choices in education and career paths.

Sharena Rice is a neuroscientist, cyber technician, and storyteller. As an advisor and consultant to high-value startups, she works at the intersection of artificial intelligence and natural intelligence, and health and wellness. Her life's goal is to invert as much suffering in the world as possible. Focused on her health and wellness domain, Sharena helps Nobody Studios through biomedical research and her startup skills. In this episode of Unlearn, Sharena shares her experience as a systems neuroscientist and how it has helped her in life. She and Barry O'Reilly discuss the importance and benefits of trying hard things, and debunk some misconceptions about cybernetics. Getting Good at Failing Doing hard things forces you to get out of your comfort zone. As a “failed” musician hailing from a family of musicians, Sharena shares that music, especially jazz, teaches you a lot about experimentation and improvisation. In trying things that are initially hard, you put yourself in the position to be uncomfortable. By consistently doing this, you slowly get acclimated to practice and failing, which progressively grows your capabilities. It also has the added benefit of reducing your levels of self-consciousness. “Success and failure are just feedback mechanisms,” Sharena claims. They tell you if you're going in the right direction or if you need course-correcting. “You have to keep attempting as you go through that process, rather than getting caught up in how successful you are, or how you failed.” [Listen from 4:15] The Career Crossroads Barry asks Sharena about her diverse career and how she got started. Sharena majored in biochemistry and double minored in philosophy and psychology in undergrad, but she didn't feel as if she belonged in just one of those three boxes. There were elements of all fields that spoke to her, and she found herself conflicted on what path she should take. After linking them all together, she realized the common thread they all shared had something to do with the mind. Neuroscience was the perfect mix. She discovered, with the help of her advisor in grad school, that she was a systems neuroscientist. And from there, she found another passion in cybernetics. [Listen from 8:50] Debunking Cybernetics Sharena debunks some misconceptions about cybernetics. Most people think of artificial intelligence and machine learning when they hear cybernetics - humanizing technology, to be specific. Rather than making technology human, what cybernetics seeks to do is make technology that has great situational understanding so it can be great at solving the problems it encounters. [Listen from 13:25] Finding the Next Right Thing Barry asks Sharena to disclose some tips for figuring out the next step. “[My] biggest thing is [my] orientation towards figuring out how to make the biggest positive impact in this lifetime,” she responds. “How do I take as much suffering as possible and invert it? That's a different equation than if someone were to ask how they can help people in a certain domain.” Rather, it's a big and overarching goal. [Listen from 23:25] Looking Ahead Sharena is currently working as a research scientist for a public benefit corporation in medical technology.

When Red Skelton was drafted in March 1944, Ozzie Nelson was prompted to create his own family situation comedy. The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet launched October 8, 1944, on CBS, it moved to NBC in October 1948, then made a late season switch back to CBS in April 1949. The final years of the radio series were on ABC (the former NBC Blue Network) from October 14, 1949, to June 18, 1954. In total 402 radio episodes were produced. In an arrangement that exemplified the growing pains of American broadcasting, as radio "grew up" into television, the Nelsons' deal with ABC gave the network the option to move their program to television. The struggling network needed proven talent that was not about to defect to the more established and wealthier networks like CBS or NBC.

What will the discovery of new ideas and experiences look like in the future?

# 070 – Today, on our next-to-last episode of in our Habits of Successful Overachieving Students, Jankel go over five habits and activities that historically have produced positive results in the lives of students in the past. As we begin our conversation highlighting the importance of intellectual curiosity, we transition into the ways in which successful students find self-motivation. Inner self-motivation is a necessary must-have for anyone interested in pursuing a worthwhile cause. Jankel continues emphasizing the importance of having the right people in your inner circle. That is a point that I truly value and wish more high school students understood and valued. The wrong crown can easily derail the best laid plans in a young person. I continue our conversation by uncovering how important it is for successful students to move on in their path, even when giving up may seem like the logical thing to do. Jankel finishes the episode by detailing a common activity in successful students, keeping their emotions in check. Although it is harder to do than one may initially think, especially for a high school student, the ability to keep emotions in check is an extremely valuable component of many stories that led to success.

On this episode of the Talent Acquisition Leaders podcast, host Ryan Dull welcomes Trent Cotton, VP Talent Acquisition & Retention at Bureau Veritas Group, a global company that performs various types of testing, inspection, and certification. Trent talks about the unique aspect of his particular job. He has to identify and recruit specialized talent to fill many of their open roles, because not everyone is qualified to perform testing, inspections, or certifications. In order to get the best results, Trent's first order of business at his new position has been to analyze all the processes he inherited and figure out ways to improve and streamline them. He admits to being a bit of a technology junkie, and he is a big fan of automating any process with the latest tools available; not to replace humans, but to make their lives easier. His advice for young professionals coming into the TA profession is to never lose your intellectual curiosity. He reminds people that nobody has all the answers, so keep asking questions, keep learning, and keep growing as a professional and as a person.

Melanie Boudreaux is an Assistant Professor at Nicholls State University—she teaches Human Resource Management. She's also Faculty Advisor for the Society of Human Resource Management and works as HR Director at Environment Safety & Health Consulting Services (ES&H). And just in case Melanie found herself with free time—she's also enrolled at University of South Alabama, where she will soon finish her PhD in Business Management.In lieu of eating and sleeping, evidently, Melanie enjoys being a wife to Benny Boudreaux, a mother of 6-year old twins, and paints Louisiana-themed crafts at Brushed by BouDreaux.When I asked Melanie why she puts so much "on her plate," she said it's because she loves to learn and help people. Plus, being an HR Director enables her to bring practical knowledge from the corporate world to her students. I love that.In this episode, after a brief story Melanie tells about declining her mom's calls so she could get a much-needed break from kids, we discuss a Youtube video where a grandmother lectures college students on "texting etiquette."I didn't realize when I mentioned the lecture that it was Melanie's mom in the video, Ms. Mary. A few examples in the video were LOL funny. One hilarious instance was when Ms. Mary encouraged students to be mindful of how a text is going to be received. To illustrate her point, she told a story of receiving a text from her sister, "T," that said, "I'm in the hospital."Immediately, Ms. Mary called T's workplace to find out when she left [for the hospital], because she presumed her sister wouldn't answer the cell phone she just texted her from [if she's in the hospital].But when Ms. Mary called T's workplace, her sister answered the phone. So Ms. Mary said to her, "Hey T, I thought you were in the hospital."That's when T told Ms. Mary to have a closer look at the text—what she'd actually sent was a screenshot [of someone else's text to her]. She was simply sharing news that someone they knew was in the hospital.The texting etiquette lesson was this. Be careful sending texts, because you don't know how your text is going to be received. Meanwhile, I'm rolling on the laughing floor, and said to Melanie, "That's something my mom would do."So that's how the episode begins. Then we get into advice for sending emails in a professional setting. Great examples shared in the video (and on this episode). Additionally, Melanie & Ms. Mary provide a helpful list of words not to be used in the workplace.Melanie & I also chat about how she prepares her students for the real world. She says they do face-to-face and Zoom mock interviews, which she records so the class can watch.Students hate mock interviews, at least at-first. But later Melanie gets so many "Thank You" emails because her students say role-playing in class helped them to land their dream job.Come to think of it. My favorite professor when I was in school had us role-play as part of the final exam. Dr. Chris Cox, former Department Head (Management & Marketing) would setup a tripod mounted with one of those old-school giant video recorders in the corner for a mock "sales call"—he was the Buyer.

Steve Pacheco President/CEO of AAF, Ann Iverson, brand builder and inspiring team leader, Helen Lavelle "Painter with a Purpose", and Steve Hall, a consistent supporter of education in advertising, all have something in common.  They LOVE this industry, and give back to it with over the top devotion.  This is how it's done.

In today’s episode of the Live Unreal w/Glover U podcast, Jeff sits down with Portland agent, Sarita Dua. Like many of the people who joined us on stage at this year’s Summit, Sarita's mindset and the way she operates her business truly embodies what it means to build an Unreal life.  After 14 years of working in tech, Sarita took a leap into real estate in a new city where she knew absolutely no one, and today she runs a highly successful business and she continues to challenge herself to new heights - including an Executive MBA from MIT!  Sarita will share with you her journey, how she got started, and what keeps her driven. You’ll find so much inspiration in her path, along with tactics you can implement in your own business.  Sarita also shared: Why she switched from tech to real estate  How she manages her time at a high level  What drove her to go back to school and the power of intellectual curiosity    Quotes  Real estate is about houses and architecture, but at its core, it’s 2 things - people and project management. -Sarita Dua Being out there teaching and training gets people to know that you’re out there. It’s all about hustle and grit. -Sarita Dua Once you start thinking bigger and seeing bigger, you can’t unsee it. -Sarita Dua If you’re a PhD in something, you’re a kindergartener in something else. -Sarita Dua   Key Points  The person who gets all the referrals is the person who serves as a connector. When someone is thinking of something they need - you need to be the person that knows where they can find it. Connecting people solves problems and keeps you top of mind, and that becomes a huge generator of leads.  Don’t just learn about your market, learn from real estate colleagues in other locations. Some markets are leaders and others are laggards. Knowing what’s happening in each of these markets teaches you to get ahead of changes, pivot, and stay on top of your game. Be confident about the value you bring to the table. People want you to sell their product and if you can’t sell yourself, how can they trust you to do the same for them?

What else can I do to prevent intellectual deception? In our last episode, we read about a rule Fr Scupoli gives for avoiding “misguided enthusiasm.” He lays out the obstacle or difficulty we experience in trying to form correct judgments about good and evil. Obstacle Inordinate love and hatred for something. Bias of the passions (feelings of attraction or repulsion) makes things appear good or evil before we can think about them. Our feelings/affections disguise things as good or evil. Advice Discover what things are really like (their nature) before allowing strong feelings to get attached. Decide if something is good to do on the basis of reason and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Do nothing rashly, without careful consideration. What is good in itself, might not be good for me, here and now. What is holiest in itself, might not be for me. Lord, enlighten our minds with what you want us to do! In this episode, we will look at a further piece of advice Fr Scupoli offers. He warns us about excessive curiosity!

Jonathan Green joined MongoDB at 32 years old as a Lead Development Representative, the lowest role in Sales. He could've continued being an Account Executive or Sales Manager somewhere else, but he chose OPPORTUNITY over on-target earnings. 4 years, 8 role changes, and 10,000 hours of selling later... He's the Regional Director of Sales at MongoDB, a $21B tech company. In this conversation, we talk about how Jonathan cold-called his way into the best opportunity of his life, what hidden traits he looks for when hiring new sales reps, and how you can create a vision for your career in sales to succeed. Jonathan's hiring @ MongoDB! Hit him up on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathanlgreen/ Timestamps: 2:01 - How did Jonathan make a career shift to sales? in his early 30's? 4:47 - How Jonathan cold called his future boss and landed a job offer as an LDR. 7:05 - What were the early lessons learned in your career? 8:19 - Complex technical sales is more like project management. 9:13 - INTERNAL relationships are everything for your career advancement in sales. 12:42 - Success in developing yourself starts with a clear vision. 14:43 - What advice would Jonathan give to himself at the beginning of his career? 14:57 - PICK THE OPPORTUNITY, NOT THE ON-TARGET EARNINGS!!! 17:45 - Picking the right career path boils down to asking hard questions. 19:25 - 8 role changes wasn't glorious; it taught me to stay level-headed. 20:09 - Look for sales candidates that overcame adversity; it's a solid indicator. 23:55 - Q&A begins 24:23 - I'm a new LDR doing qualification and prospecting. What would you suggest I keep in mind as I'm having discovery calls and trying to qualify leads for the sales team? 24:48 - BANT is great, but you need to ask the 3 WHY's: Why Us? Why Now? Why Anything? 27:02 - Look for GRIT, INTELLECTUAL CURIOSITY, and a TRACK-RECORD of being interesting for new sales candidates. 29:30 - Presentation skills are over-rated. You don't need great hair or a great slide-deck. You need to have genuine curiosity and genuine care for your customers + great work ethic. What you didn't get to witness in this conversation: How Jonathan helped another Sales leader develop a new compensation plan that eliminates tension between Account Executives who sell $10k deals up-front only to have Account Managers get commission for $100k up-sells within 6 months.. What cutting-edge prospecting, enablement, and scheduling tools we recommended to a new VP of Sales looking to hire his first SDR and build a sales org.. And much, much more!

Intellectual curiosity (also called epistemic curiosity) is curiosity that leads to an acquisition of general knowledge. It can include curiosity about such things as what objects are composed of, the underlying mechanisms of systems, mathematical relationships, languages, social norms, and history.  Is something true of not even my own beliefs and theories?  Our current society is UPSIDEDOWN !   Intellectual curiosity is mocked and blind religious belief in a scientific theory or political view accepted.   Albert Einstein is rolling over in his grave.  The whole point of science is to keep investigating.  Validate. Validate. Validate. Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher opens a conversation on how  our  culture is living off of intellectual baby food instead of steak and potatoes!

The Power of Intellectual Curiosity in Life & Business The post Chris Voss Podcast – The Power of Intellectual Curiosity in Life & Business appeared first on Chris Voss Official Website.

Today I chat to the incredibly accomplished Linda Nkechinyelu Oramasionwu-Leverette.   Linda is the Founder and CEO of Kupanda Capital, a private equity firm that focuses on investing in Pan African companies across all sectors. She's invested in some really cool companies, including Mavin Records, Don Jazzy's record label. Linda is VERY passionate about development on the continent, and is also very down to earth despite her huge success.   Linda grew up in Manitoba Canada, but was firmly grounded in Igbo culture. She joined the Umunna Igbo Association as a child and learned to celebrate the culture, even though she grew up outside Nigeria. As a child of first generation immigrants, Linda learned from her parents a level of entrepreneurship and resilience that served her very well. Linda moved to the U.S a decade ago and fell in love with the "Audacity of the American Dream." Every day is different for Linda and in her words there is “No Dulling”   We talk about the importance of following good people and how people matter in business and in life.   Listen to this episode to discover what Linda means, when she says to be audacious and to follow your intellectual curiosity. Linda recommends the following books: 1. Americanah - Chimamanda Adichie 2. Speak no evil - Uzodinma Iweala 3. David and Goliath - Malcolm Gladwell >>>Subscribe on APPLE PODCASTS | STITCHER | GOOGLE PLAY 

Today's episode is the third in my series based on a talk that I gave to a group of sixth, seventh and eighth graders. During the talk, we discussed several of the ideas in the new culture that they are creating at the school. They call it GRIT. And this week, I am focusing on the third letter, I, which stands for Intellectual Curiosity.

Read the complete transcription on the Sales Game Changers Podcast website. CHRIS' CLOSING TIP TO EMERGING SALES LEADERS: "Live by the Golden Rule. To me, it's do unto others as you would have them do unto to you and just be a good person. I think fundamentally good people succeed and if you are a good person and you treat people with respect and you deliver good experiences, in the long run you will be highly successful. You may see people taking short cuts and you may see them being at least in the short term successful. Don't fall into that trap." Chris Hertz is the Chief Revenue Officer with DivvyCloud. Prior to coming to DivvyCloud, he created and eventually exited from New Signature, a company that did very successfully helping companies migrate to the cloud. Find Chris on LinkedIn!
