✅ FREE WORKBOOK: The 6 Routines of Balance: Syncing Productivity, Health, & Relationships For a Happier Life https://bit.ly/3PhQszu ✅ Listen to the podcast version of this episode: https://spoti.fi/3pHC47k ****** Are you a perfectionist—or just afraid to start? Perfectionism feels like high standards. It feels like aiming for excellence. But in reality? It's just fear—fear of mistakes, fear of judgment, fear of not being good enough. And that fear keeps you stuck, endlessly tweaking, waiting for the “perfect” moment that never comes. So, how do you break free? How do you stop hesitating and start making real progress? That's exactly what we're diving into today. We'll uncover: ✅ Why your brain is wired to fear mistakes (and how to rewire it). ✅ The hidden reason perfectionism keeps you trapped in “almost ready” mode. ✅ A powerful mindset shift that turns perfectionism from an obstacle into an advantage. ✅ The Brushstroke Method—a simple, repeatable system that helps every perfectionist take action without fear.
Anthony Pompliano — investor, entrepreneur, and media powerhouse — returns four years and 228 episodes later to discuss his new book, How To Live an Extraordinary Life, a collection of 65 heartfelt letters to his two children.

You don't accomplish all that without learning a thing or two, and in this episode we dig into his hard-earned insights — from the uniting traits of the world's smartest people, to the luxury of pessimism, to why luck isn't real.

"When you have a child, you care more than anyone else about that child. You're caring about their long-term success and happiness and their health. If you look at just a first principles basis, what is the school interested in? What is the state interested in? It's more about compliance and conformity. It's not about creativity. It's not about critical thinking. It is conformity and compliance." ~ Tali & Scott Can a board game teach Bitcoin better than a lecture?

Today we REWIND back to one of our favorite Board Meetings of all time. We chose this episode because we are spending the next couple months digging deep into movement and learning, and exploring if there might be a better way to consider movement than the technique-based way we've always done it. In this episode, Kris and Nate discuss ideas presented by author Josh Waitzkin about our mental models for learning, specifically after hearing him as a guest on Tim Ferriss's podcast, and how we might apply these ideas to climbing. This episode originally aired on April 5, 2020. ____________________

How do you define strategy? How does your team define strategy? According to Rich Horwath, there are 91 definitions of strategy. No wonder we get confused during strategic planning.

Ever wondered why some people seem to have a Midas touch in building their business? It's not just luck; it's about filling the right buckets – knowledge, skills, network, resources, and reputation – in a specific order. This systematic approach can unlock your potential and set you on the path to success and fulfilment. At the very outset, the most critical bucket to fill is knowledge. Think of it as the foundation of a skyscraper. The stronger the foundation, the higher you can build. For me, my go-to for gaining new knowledge and ideas is books. Of course I do other things to help me build my business: working with mentors, growing my team and networking with peers, to name a few. But without the knowledge and ideas first, nothing new or different will ever happen. In this episode, I share the insights I gleaned from my top 6 favourite books this year. Hopefully one or two will inspire you!

I'd like to begin this episode by acknowledging the land that I am learning and living on is the traditional unceded, un-surrendered territory of the Algonquin Anishnaabeg People. Often, emerging leaders are thrust into leadership roles because of their proven technical skills, but technical prowess does not guarantee leadership skill. This challenge is made all the more difficult because we are experts in the field, so there is an expectation to be able to easily lead.But what do we do when we aren't the expert and we're still expected to lead?In this episode, you'll hear from Dr. Will Bralick, the Founding President & CEO of a software consulting practice — Paladin Logic, Ltd — and an educator/coach in software project leadership, who will offer advice and practical tools to help emerging leaders define, identify, and see what we don't know, giving leaders the capability to be more effective much more quickly.Trench Leadership: A Podcast From the Front is humbled to have been named #7 in the Top 20 for Best Canadian Leadership-themed podcasts for 2023.

Learning and mindfulness are closely related. Some of the benefits of learning new skills and new ideas are: it gives you motivation, helps beat boredom, boosts confidence, keeps you healthy, helps you be flexible, can benefit others, and learning can boost your happiness levels. Listen & Subscribe on: iTunes / Stitcher / Podbean / Overcast / Spotify Here are 7 Ways Learning New Skills or New Concepts Can Help You: 1/ Learning Feels Good Wordle and similar puzzles have become incredibly popular. This is because we enjoy learning and love the rush of adrenaline when we succeed at solving a puzzle or accomplishing a challenging task. Allow yourself to enjoy these kinds of winning experiences. The good feeling can be shared when we get together and play games with family and friends. There are more and more games being created every year, and they can help us satisfy a particular human need. Three new games came into our home this Christmas, and every one of them contributed to this feeling of pleasure as I learned how to play them with my family and friends. 2/ Creates New Neuropathways When you are learning something new, does it feel like your brain is using extra resources? Do you feel as though your brain is using more energy than normal? That feeling is what results from new neuropathways being carved out in your brain. We've been hearing about this concept for quite a while now, and you can test it out for yourself by learning a new skill, a game, or solving challenging puzzles. Pay particular attention to how your brain feels as you are learning this new material. I think you'll agree, it's important to give your brain new challenges every day. 3/ A New Perspective On Life When I was 37 years old, I decided I wanted to learn downhill skiing. This was a skill I had always admired, and now I was determined to be a downhill skier myself. Not only was this an exciting venture, but it definitely gave me a new perspective on life. Standing at the top of a long, steep hill, and looking down at the valley where I would be skiing, gave me a completely new perspective on life. As I became better at skiing, I was aware that I began to feel different about my life. I felt more confident and more accomplished. This feeling drifted over to other aspects of my life as well. I was having more fun and had more to look forward to as I planned future skiing trips and even short skiing adventures. 4/ Staves Off Senility I believe that keeping your mind active and robust is one way to help stave off senility. My great-grandmother and my grandfather both lived well into their 90s, and I can remember my grandfather always making an effort to learn new things, he had a great sense of humor and was always conversing with nurses, support workers, and visitors after he moved to a nursing home. I frequently played favorite songs for him on my accordion, and he was always eager to learn all about what was happening in my life. He was curious and was constantly learning new things. 5/ Creates A Winning Mindset Being a lifetime learner can help you live with a winning mindset. Everything is perspective. Some people find it easy to focus on the negative and be immersed in a lot of bad news. It's one thing to be a realist and be aware of what's happening in the world, but when you focus too much on the negative, it can take over your outlook. Having a doomsday outlook doesn't feel good for most of us. I'd prefer to choose to learn new skills and fresh ideas every day because I believe that contributes to a winning mindset. 6/ Helps Combat Depression If you are suffering from depression, please see a professional. My mention of depression here is not referring to clinical depression, but instead that state where you feel down, discouraged, and you generally lack motivation. For me, there is nothing better than setting out to learn a new skill when I'm feeling down. Sometimes I have to give myself a huge push to make it happen, but once I do, I feel a lot better and am happy that I gave myself that necessary shove in order to move into a better place. I'm well aware that sometimes it feels impossible to do what I'm describing, but hang in there. Keep moving forward. Listen to podcasts, read books, learn crafts or how to cook a new recipe, or even write a journal entry. These are only a few examples of how to use learning and mindfulness as a way to stay on top of things and move forward. 7/ Increases Connections To Others I notice that when I get discouraged, I feel like I want to crawl into a hole and hide. I have to fight that urge and force myself to get out and be with people. At the same time, learning new skills gets me motivated to reach out to others. As a result, I feel more upbeat, and my life is more satisfying. How about you? Is this true for you? I'd like to hear from you as to whether you believe that learning new skills increases your connections to others. I've found this to be true when I travel to conferences, and not only am I learning new information, but I get excited about meeting all kinds of new people. Send me an email at bruce@mindfulnessmode.com – Let me know if you believe that learning new skills increases your connections to others. I'd love to have you share some examples that I can mention on the show.

Book Vs. Movie: Searching for Bobby FischerThe true story of a chess prodigy Josh Waitzkin, his father's New York Times article, and the 1993 film The Margos gently enter into the world of chess (a game neither of us knows very well so, please be patient!) with Searching for Bobby Fischer. Josh Waitzkin was considered a chess prodigy when he played in tournaments around thew country as a young child.

BIO: Direk Khanijou is a student of business and currently works with his family in the textile business in Bangkok, Thailand. He started his investment portfolio at 20 while studying at the University College London. STORY: Direk invested in a pharmaceutical company simply because it had some of the most respected hedge funds on the shareholder roster. He lost 94% on his investment less than two years later. LEARNING: Be careful of leverage and taking on too much debt. Don't stray outside of your circle of competence when investing. Be cautious of endowment bias. “Mistakes are great because that's where the real learning happens.”Direk Khanijou Guest profilehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/direkkhanijou/ (Direk Khanijou) is a student of business and currently works with his family in the textile business in Bangkok. He started his investment portfolio at the age of 20 while studying at the University College London. He looks to differentiate himself through hard work, voracious reading, and continuous learning. His objective is to compound capital at decent rates of returns without taking undue risk. You can learn more about him at https://www.rbxinvestments.com/ (RBX Investments). Worst investment everDirek invested in a pharmaceutical company despite having no experience or interest in that industry. He was impressed by the company's incredibly complex business model. This company caught his eye because many brilliant people had invested in it. It had some of the most respected hedge funds on the shareholder roster. Owning it made Direk feel smart. Under the then CEO, the company relied on guile and aggressive accounting to increase its value. The CEO believed spending money to develop new drugs was inefficient and wasteful. So instead, the company borrowed money to acquire pharma companies, slashed its R&D, and jacked up the prices of life-saving drugs to offset volume declines. In 2017, the company raised the price of one particular drug from $13.50 to $750 per pill. This decision revealed everything that was wrong with the CEO's business model. The stock collapsed, and the CEO was fired. Direk had invested in this company in October 2015 at $166 per share and sold his shares in March 2017 at about $10 per share. That's a 94% loss on his capital. He had many chances to sell along the way, but he was just too stubborn, and his ego made him hold onto the losing stock for too long. Lessons learnedBe careful of leverage and taking on too much debt. When a business has a lot of debt, the focus of the management sometimes shifts from managing the business to managing the balance sheet. Be careful of endowment bias and learn to strike the right balance between holding onto your losers for too long and letting your winners run. Don't stray outside of your circle of competence when investing. There are two ways to learn from mistakes. You can make mistakes and learn from them. Or you can learn vicariously from other people's mistakes—which is much less painful. Direk, however, believes lessons stick better when you make a mistake yourself. Andrew's takeawaysDo your research before investing, even when an intelligent, successful person recommends a particular investment vehicle. Leverage is the number one risk that a company faces because it takes away flexibility. Actionable adviceSubscribe to https://myworstinvestmentever.com/ (My Worst Investment Ever) podcast and listen to the many lifetimes' worth of wisdom. Secondly, develop your own investment philosophy early on in life. Figure out what kind of an investor you want to be. Lastly, hang around people who are better than you; over time, you'll drift in that direction. You don't have to hang out with them physically. You can mentally hang out with them in books.

It's easy to find yourself thrust into a position where others regard you as an ”expert”, but what really constitutes expertise? Do you have it? Can it be acquired? When will you feel like you have it? (And why feeling like an expert should be a warning sign…) What makes an expert? Are you one? Do your friends or your employer consider you one? How does one go about seeking expertise? Relatedly, it's a big and confusing internet out there and every day you are confronted with people who claim to be experts. Jim and Mike have some tips for separating the expert wheat from the poser chaff, especially when that purported expert is in the mirror.

When you're acquiring and developing a new skill, you need to learn how to learn. Learning is a meta-skill for life and for sustaining peak performance. This continuation of a two-parts episode builds on the foundation principles covered in Episode 36. In episode 37 of The Incrementalist, you will learn: 7 more takeaways to learn and master any skill Keep a beginner's mind - be like the child learning to crawl who is not concerned about how she looks or about whether she's succeeding or failing. Invest in loss - give yourself to the learning process and be willing to lose and fail so you can win and succeed. Make smaller circles - emphasize depth over breadth; focus on the micro to understand the macro. Use adversity - take advantage of setbacks to hone new skills and move out of creative ruts. Slow down time - connect the unconscious and the conscious mind through chunking (create neural pathways, chunks, and navigation systems between the chunks). Be fully present - pay attention to the learning process to increase clarity in high-stakes moments. Get in the zone - use the stress-recovery effect to achieve focus and flow states.

When you're learning and developing any skill, it's better to have a growth mindset, than a fixed mindset. Talent and natural ability do matter. But your attitude towards failure and setbacks are more critical. There are two modes of learning theories: entity versus incremental theories of intelligence. Entity theorists think, "I am smart at this." Success or failure is based on an ingrained ability. Intelligence or skill is a fixed entity. Incremental theorists think, "I got it because I worked hard.” Success or failure depends on effort. Intelligence or skill can be developed. In episode 36 of The Incrementalist, you will learn: 1) The two modes of learning theories Entity theorists have a fixed mindset Incremental theorists have a growth mindset 2) 4 key takeaways to learn and master any skill Decide whether you want to be decent, good, great or among the best - it's okay to aim for decent, but if you want to be among the best, the stakes and standards will be higher. Stay true to yourself and to your style - in the pursuit of high performance, you keep in tune with your unique disposition. Maintain soft zones to increase concentration and overcome distraction - be at peace with an imperfect environment, and use it to your advantage. Avoid the downward spiral - don't repeat the same mistakes, whether technical or psychological. Read the transcript.

About the Author Josh Waitzkin first caught a glimpse of a chess set while 6 years old and walking with his mother in New York City’s Washington Square Park. He was going to play on the monkey bars, and instead he fell in love with the art that would dominate much of his young life. Josh’s first teachers were down and out hustlers–street virtuosos who took Josh under their wings and cleaned up their acts when their protégé came to play. At twenty-one, Josh began to transition away from his early career in chess and into the study of the chinese martial art, Tai Chi Chuan with Grandmaster William CC Chen. He was drawn into the art by his love for eastern philosophy and meditation, and by the desire to begin a learning process anew, as a total beginner, away from the spotlight that constantly followed his chess career. Initially Josh had no intention of competing in the martial arts, but there was no stopping the inevitable. He’s gone on to win countless medals, international competitions and acclaim as a competitor. In 2008, Waitzkin founded The JW Foundation, an educational non-profit dedicated to an individualized approach to learning, and he currently serves as president of the organization. In addition to consulting internationally on the subjects of performance psychology, the learning process and creativity, Josh is currently focusing on his third art: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Don’t try and follow Josh online, he’s famously anti-social media.

The book is an autobiographical discussion of the learning process and performance psychology. Drawn from Josh’s experiences in both chess and the martial arts. In The Art of Learning Josh reveals his unique systems of thematic learning, idea generation, building resilience, and mastering the art of performance psychology.

It’s all about learning to surf (this isn’t yet uploaded to Josh’s website in the link above) https://tim.blog/2019/06/27/josh-waitzkin/ Read the first chapter of the Art of Learning here: https://www.joshwaitzkin.com/the-art-of- learning Join Josh’s Art of Learning project here: https://theartoflearningproject.org/ BIG IDEA 1 (3:46) – Excellence is in the long game. Josh talks about fixed and incremental (or growth) mindset. The incremental mindset is the key to getting better. He saw many kids playing chess growing up whose self worth was wrapped in something that was very fragile (them winning). Therefore struggled to cope with losing. When he was little he practiced a lot and was regularly thinking about performance, psychology and resilience. He thought about how he can maintain resilience, good mindset and how to get better. He talks about going from the safety of playing against mediocre players to playing with players who are more challenging in order to improve. BIG IDEA 2 (6:02) – Embrace chaos. This about the fact that conditions can’t always be perfect. Therefore top performers need to be unrattled by imperfect conditions. He saw particularly in the kids circuit that some kids launch psychological warfare on their opponent in order to rattle them. Josh learned how to switch on almost immediately when faced with unexpected circumstances. Whether it’s listening to a particular song or taking a couple of breaths, whatever it was, he needed to get back into the flow state and quickly. Because conditions will not always be perfect, you need to learn to adapt to that. Find what gives you order but also learn to live without it. If you have things that you need for the condition to be perfect, you are potentially not as adaptable as you could be, and can be thrown easier. BIG IDEA 3 (9:35) – Find coaches and the beginner’s mind. All the way through his different arts Josh found the right coaches. He found people who are masters of their field and learned from them. They were very carefully chosen and it was always very intentional when he chose to leave them. This is when they didn’t challenge him enough or came to a plateau where he couldn’t be taken forward any longer. He talks about his coaches and how they are a fundamental part of his success. If you look at elite performers in business, sports or whatever field, all of them have had mentors, coaches etc. helping them along the way. The point on the beginner’s mind is about breaking skills down. It’s about breaking down the component parts and the skills needed to be excellent. Josh also talks about creating the discipline for the elemental practice. It’s the mastery of the basics that make you good. The beginner’s mind is also about putting your ego to the side and looking at things from a fresh sense.

The most successful people in the world have one thing in common: they read. And they read a lot.Warren Buffett, the richest man in the world, continues to read up to 500 pages per day.Bill Gates has reportedly read a book a week since high school.Elon Musk devoured books of all genres when he was a kid, and has credited physics and engineering textbooks with getting him up to speed on rocket science - literally.Dr. Scott Haldeman, DC, PhD, MD, a reknowned spine specialist, thinks you should be reading at least 5 hours per week to keep up with the latest spine research."I don't think you're capable of offering care to patients if you're not reading 2-5 hours per week. If you're not reading the research 2-5 hours each week, you're going to very rapidly become outdated.” – Scott Haldeman, DC, PhD, MD“Read 500 pages every day. That’s how knowledge works. It builds up, like compound interest. All of you can do it, but I guarantee not many of you will do it.” – Warren BuffettIt’s no question that reading is a skill and a habit that must be developed and honed. And there’s no better time to start than before you go to chiropractic school.Here is my list of must-read books for pre-chiropractic students. I’ve either read the book, or had it recommended by guests on my podcast.Of course, if you’re already in school, it’s not too late to start.

https://www.linkedin.com/in/robinpeterzander ()Robin is an author, educator, and strategist, with a background ranging from management consulting to circus performance. He has a desire to help people and companies keep pace with rapid change. If you can’t find him in a dance studio, he is directing the Stanford-founded Design for Dance Conference, and also runs his own podcast, The Robin Zander Show. STRATEGIES USED TO FUND BUSINESS My main gig right now is the educational startup called http://www.socoslearning.com/ (SOCOS). http://www.socoslearning.com/ (SOCOS) is 3 years old right now; I joined a year and a half ago. But we’re bootstrapped. http://www.socoslearning.com/ (SOCOS) had started with a small scale consultancy for online universities. Only in the last 6 months was where we’ve taken decades of research into learning and turning it into a product that people can use. The product is called MUSE. It’s for parents of kids 0-12 years old, where it’s that one thing that parents can do every single day to maximize the life of their child. WHEN DID YOU FEEL YOU’VE GAINED ENOUGH KNOWLEDGE FOR CONSULTING? Every consulting opportunity is different from the one before. When I started consulting as a special needs consultant to families, I didn’t evolve yet like I was the expert. But I realized that by having that outside perspective, and having the story of one other family of whom I can share with the person in front of me right now, was incredibly useful. We often overlook our strengths because we assume that other people have them too. DESCRIBE A MOMENT WHEN YOU FELT LIKE GIVING UP One moment was with my old consulting business, Move Autism. I had a couple clients and decided to give it my all. I was getting great feedback from my initial clients, but when I decided to expand my business, it was very difficult since I was relatively new to social media marketing. There was a point when I questioned if I should join my friends and enter into the tech industry or get my Ph D. The thing that saw me through was that desire to be of service. HUGE SUCCESS From consulting, success at that time was seeing the changes in the little girl and her family. I asked myself, have I to the best of my ability in this setting been of service to that person. If the answer is yes, then that’s success. SUPERPOWER One is the ability to ask questions and helping people reach their conclusions. KRYPTONITE It’s setting a high expectation for someone else and not having those expectations delivered and getting upset about that is my kryptonite. IF YOU CAN HAVE ANY SUPERPOWER I would love to have a “Narnia” closet where time is paused and you can do whatever you want to feel refreshed.
