Laura Gassner Otting is a renowned life coach and the best-selling author of "Limitless: How To Ignore Everybody, Carve Your Own Path, and Live Your Best Life." She's been featured on TODAY, Good Morning America, Oprah, and more. Otting wrote "Wonderhell" because she found herself living through it. She says, "Wonderhell is the space between who you were yesterday and who you just realized you could become tomorrow." When she published “Limitless,” it debuted at No. 2 on the Washington Post bestseller list, right behind Michelle Obama. It was a success but her mind immediately went to how she could get on The New York Times list. It made her question if enough is ever enough when it comes to our ambitions.In this episode of Motivational Mondays, Laura discusses her newest book, "Wonderhell: Why Success Doesn't Feel Like It Should… and What To Do About It," and why you must be flexible in your definition of success.LEARN MORE:>> Read Otting's books, “Limitless: How To Ignore Everybody, Carve your Own Path, and Live Your Best Life” and “Wonderhell: Why Success Doesn't Feel Like It Should . . . and What To Do About It” (https://amzn.to/3W2aGjc), (https://amzn.to/3pKshA0)>> Connect with her on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn (https://twitter.com/heylgo), (https://www.instagram.com/heylgo), (https://www.facebook.com/heylgo), (https://www.linkedin.com/in/heylgo)NSLS MEMBERS ONLY:>> Listen to the bonus episode to learn how to define what type of leader you want to be and why you should lean into what makes you special.

Why does success not always bring happiness?On this episode, I speak with Laura Gassing Otting, who, in her own words, helps leaders get unstuck. She is a best-selling author who has previously set up a recruitment agency, helping many leaders to manage their careers on their terms and to carve their own paths. As you'll hear, that means removing some limiting factors like impostor syndrome or having your success defined by others. And she's helped people to get the best out of themselves. If you're a regular listener to the show, you'll know that I like having people who bring a fresh perspective and help us think differently about the world. As someone who's moved from a corporate career to being self-employed and branching out into a career path that I've defined for myself, I spent a lot of time thinking about what success means when there's no longer a well-trodden path to follow. You have to start working these things out for yourself. What Laura has to share is fascinating. We often have a view of what success means and how we will get there. Though, when we do reach those pinnacles, it can often be quite disappointing. So if we want to get the best out of ourselves and others, we should listen to people like Laura, who can show us where the traditional models might have flaws.

May 6: The #FOIA edition, HUD, & Comptroller of the Currency Otting who met Dimon vs CRA, corrupt like UN in #SouthSudan
Joseph M. Otting was sworn in as the 31st Comptroller of the Currency on November 27, 2017. The Comptroller of the Currency is the administrator of the federal banking system and chief officer of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). The OCC supervises more than 1,200 national banks, federal savings associations, and federal branches and agencies of foreign banks operating in the United States. The mission of the OCC is to ensure that national banks and federal savings associations operate in a safe and sound manner, provide fair access to financial services, treat customers fairly, and comply with applicable laws and regulations. We covered a great deal of other ground. He shares his thinking on how the OCC needs to use technology; on how technology is transforming banks; on top emerging risks, especially in cyber; on the need for banks to use AI in compliance and risk management; and on equipping community banks to compete in today’s high-tech market. He talks about the increasing level of interagency coordination underway today. The US has five federal agencies that directly supervise depository institutions, which makes coordination complex and sometimes slow. I was pleased to hear that just before we recorded this show, he had been at a recurring lunch meeting he has with two other agency heads. The Comptroller also talks about the OCC’s innovation initiative, which was one of the first set up by a US regulator. In a prior episode we talked about that program with former Comptroller Tom Curry, who established that unit.

The OCC and FDIC have released their long-awaited joint proposal to revise and update the Community Reinvestment Act regulatory framework. In this bonus episode of the ABA Banking Journal Podcast, sponsored by OneTrust Vendorpedia, senior OCC policy official Grovetta Gardineer digs into the details of the notice of proposed rulemaking. She discusses: The anticipated list of pre-approved activities eligible for CRA credit and how it will be updated. How the proposal addresses concerns about CRA activities in gentrifying neighborhoods. The proposal’s new concept of assessment areas based on where banks have a significant share of deposits and retail lending — beyond their facility-based assessment areas. The proposal’s new approach to CRA evaluation, which includes a set of performance standards against benchmarks and set in a bank’s local performance context. Implications of the proposed changes for banks’ reporting and data systems and the agencies’ discussions with core providers and other vendors to support the changes. How the opt-out for banks with less than $500 million in assets would work — and what new data smaller banks would still have to collect even if they opt out. Comments on the proposal will be due 60 days after it is published in the Federal Register. ABA encourages all banks to comment; ABA members can register for a free webinar on Dec. 19 providing more details on the proposed rule and tips for writing a comment letter.

It continues to be one of the most important questions to ask oneself, “Does my work align with who I am?” Yet in our culture today it is a question many never ask or expect. Work is seen as a necessary evil to provide a paycheck that affords us our lives. While many view working at something they actually enjoy and care about and believe in as a luxury, having those attributes in your work has proven to not only provide personal fulfillment, but greater earning potential. In show 687 I talked with Laura Gassner Otting about her concept of consonance and the power of alignment in all we do. From that show I posted this question to the Ziglar audience, “Does your work align with who you are?” The responses of course varied from “absolutely!” and how, to “not at all” and the frustrations from that. To talk through the comments I brought Laura back on the show to give her expert insight and counsel. These are Real stories giving real value and Laura’s insight was just incredible.

The sky isn’t the limit for this week’s guest, former Presidential appointee, entrepreneur, and author Laura Gassner Otting. Her most recent book is called Limitless and that’s the message she shares on today’s show. Imposter syndrome was real for Gassner Otting, who said it took pushing herself far outside her comfort zone — even after 25 years of experience in a variety of professional fields — in order to realize her own limitless potential. She had to push other people’s ideas about her own limits to the side and seek out challenges she didn’t think she’d be able to surmount. She shares tips about diving in headfirst, learning from failure, and getting the most out of the one life we live. WHAT YOU’LL LEARN: Evaluate your own metrics of success Discover hidden potential within yourself Shed limiting beliefs based on others’ ideas of constraints Kick imposter syndrome and realize if it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you Pursue projects that are in line with your ideals Order Laura's book Limitless here.

In this episode we meet Laura Gasner Otting. Laura has empowered thousands through her speaking engagements and inspirational writing, including her newest book, Limitless: How to Ignore Everybody, Carve your Own Path, and Live Your Best Life. Laura's 25-year resume is defined by her entrepreneurial edge. She served as a Presidential Appointee in Bill Clinton's White House, helping shape AmeriCorps; Was founder and President of the highly successful Nonprofit Professionals Advisory Group, which placed nonprofit executives around the world. Through her own commitment to give back, Laura has helped build a local Montessori school, co-founded a women's philanthropic initiative, advised a start-up national women's PAC, grew a citizen-leadership development program, and completed three charity-inspired marathons—projects emblematic of her passions and values. Laura is both an experience CEO and Guru and her advice around success and reaching your limitless potential is practical and inspiring. In this episode we talk about: What Laura learnt from working in Bill Clinton's White House on a national program How to live with purpose Defining your own success rather than living someone else's life How find your Leadership Voice The four words you need to never repeat ever again Key Quotes from Natalie Speers Why she does what she does: I went from the White House to going into executive search, really, was the best and the brightest, the smartest people, the shiniest brand, who was doing this work. And I was interviewing people, and about four years into it, I was struck by this idea that even though I was interviewing people who were at the top of their game, these were leaders, they were people coming out of ... there were people coming out of the White House, there were people coming out of massively impressive, bold-faced jobs. And I was fascinated by the fact that even though they were successful, on paper, they were successful, they weren't all that happy. When you do search for non-profits, you get to talk about what people have accomplished and how they've accomplished it. But you also get to spend a lot of time talking about why they accomplished it. What's their purpose? Who are they? What's their calling? What do they care about? And I was so struck that there were not that many people where the what they did, matched the who they were. And then I started thinking about my own life also, and realising that it wasn't that way for me too. And that's sort of when I had this moment of rage in this big firm and I said, "I can do this differently, better, smarter, faster. And with more authenticity, integrity and profit than this big firm." I went on and launched my own firm. And I ran that for 15 years. During that time, I had to keep coming back as an entrepreneur, to why am I doing this? Why am I here? What's the point? And in each of those moments, I would realise that I had to continue to be honest with the plan. What's my plan? Who am I? Is there a plan at all? Because when you're running your own business, you really have to be conscious of those decisions of the expenditures you make and the time that you take to do things. On Living with Purpose and Consonance: If you want to live a life of consequence, no matter how you define it, you have to live a life of consonance, where everything is aligned, where it's in flow, where as I mentioned, the what you do match the who you are. So this book really came out of the 20 years of interviewing thousands of people, and my own story of making specific changes, so that I could live a life that really felt like it mattered to me. And I think that that's this purpose fallacy that we have, that purpose is for someone else, it's some other time after you've made your money. It's for the people who wear the white hats or who are okay living in poverty I looked up the word purpose in an actual dictionary. And the word purpose means the reason for which something exists. And that's it. There's no picture of Mother Teresa. There's no friend wagging their judgmental finger at you. Your purpose is just the reason why you're here, and your purpose may be curing cancer. Your purpose may be feeding the poor. Your purpose may be administering alms to the unwashed masses. But your purpose might also be getting yourself out of debt, or building a business, or buying a Maserati and a beach house. Your purpose is just your purpose. The first thing I do in the book, is I want to get rid of this idea that calling and purpose has to be writ large and lofty, and that it can only belong to people in the non-profit sector, because frankly, most of them are feeling just as untethered and unmoored as the rest of us. And I think we also have this idea that ambition is a bad thing. Just like we get purpose wrong. I think we get ambition wrong too. We sort of hide it under this guise of faux humility, because that's, of course, more socially acceptable, right? Quote unquote, hashtag humble brag and all of that. And I do think that if there is a cause that you care about or there are people who you love, and if making the most amount of money or giving yourself a bigger megaphone or putting yourself on a bigger platform will help to advance that cause or help those people, I think it's not ambition. I think it's your responsibility. How to find your purpose think about a time when you were at your very best. You were firing on all cylinders. You were making it rain. You were closing a deal. You were getting a standing ovation, or maybe you were having a small, quiet moment with a loved one. Maybe you were ... difficult situation in private. There are moments where you know, you're just, everything that's in you, everything that you bring to the world, has been called upon in that moment. And then those are really your fundamental states of leadership. Think about those moments and to write down the energy that they're using, the muscles that they're using, whether they're in public or in private. How are they moving their body? How are they using their mind? And to write down some of the adjectives that describe that. Pin them to a lock screen on your phone or on your rear view mirror or on your new bathroom or something. And to spend as much time as you can living into that person Some Pitfalls to Finding Purpose as long as we don't fall into hustle porn. The whole hustle, hustle, hustle. When I was interviewing people, I would get candidates. They would say things like, "Well, I sent out 800 press releases." And they'd be really proud of that. And I'd be like, "All right, great. Did any of the press releases result in an article in the paper of the guy who runs the committee in Congress who determines whether or not this issue comes up for a vote?" Hmm. And if they did, then that press release matters. And the other 799 were useless, right? But if none of them did, well, then it doesn't matter. There's busy and there's impact. On Defining Your Own Success I turned around one day and I went, "Well, okay, I made it to the top. But the top of what? Is this actually where I want to be?" And so I filled in all those checkboxes along the path and I got to where I was supposed to. I collected all the gold stars. I ran on the treadmill. And then I looked around one day and I'm like, "All right, well, success just means running faster?" If I have more clients and I have more revenue and I have more projects, that just means I have more. But am I actually making more profit? Am I actually maximising impact in the world? Am I actually maximising the flexibility I have in my life? Or do I just have more of the stress? Am I just running faster to keep the treadmill going? I got to the top, the top of what? all along our path, there are people who insert their own definitions into our world. And if we don't fall for that, frankly, we fall for Instagram and Facebook and social media, where we've got these beautiful, flaxen-haired, beach-waved beauties looking out over the sand dunes telling us to, "Follow our passion." And that, "You'll be happy when." "Live life perfectly in balance." And I think that's all nonsense So it's not until we stop and we say, "Well, what do I actually care about? What would make me happy?" That we get rid of everyone else and we say, "Screw the Joneses and their happy little shiny, beautiful, Facebook families." And we say, "What's my own definition?" And rather than leaning in to everyone else's, we figure out our own and we lean into that On Finding Your Leadership Voice and Defining Your Own Success: We have to figure out who we are when we're at our very best. And stop trying to emulate other people's voices. And it wasn't until those staff members became confident in who they were and the voice that they had, that they could live into that voice. Because I believe that confidence doesn't come from having big dreams. I think that we have this idea that if we can dream it, we can do it. That's just not true. I could dream that I could be the Queen of England all day long, but nobody's bringing me tea and crumpets at 3:00 PM. I didn't run those marathons eventually, because I dreamed it in the beginning and because I could dream that I could do it. I just started doing. And I put one foot in front of the other. When I put one foot in front of the other and my pants didn't light on fire, I started demonstrating competence. And when I started demonstrating competence, I began to have confidence that I could dream bigger and bigger. And I think finding our personal voice of leadership comes from stepping into those moments where we try to do things that are hard, and we figure out what we're made of. And I think that it's so key to how we grow as individuals Now, life is really short. We don't have a lot of time on earth, and frankly, we're going to spend 80,000 of those hours of our lives working. So it's time to not be, I'll be happy when, but to figure out how to be happy now. I'm on this all-out crusade to get people to stop asking, "How can I help?" And create these band aids, and ask the question, "What needs to happen?" Because when somebody comes to you with a problem and they tell you all about it and you say, "How can I help?" They give you busy work. But if they tell you all about it and you say, "What needs to happen for you to feel successful?" Then suddenly they go, "Oh, well, actually I need to do this. I need to do that. Maybe if you could help me think through this problem, then I'm all set." And suddenly, their lack of planning, their anxiety, their emergency, doesn't become your problem. You just help facilitate for them the solution, the pathway that they need to take At every age and every life stage, we're going to be sitting on different seats on the bus. But we want to pick them. I think that's something that's part of who we are. We've climbed out of the primordial sludge because we had agency. We had plans. We had ambition. I think if you don't allow people to find their own solutions, then they're not going to be of solution to you. You can't be insatiably hungry for someone else's goal. It's got to be your goal. Because you're not going to do the work, you're not going to grind, you're going to do what needs to be done in the dark hours where no one sees, where it's exhausting, where you'd much rather just be sitting on the couch and watching TV. But if it's not your goal, then you're not incentivized to get there And so, the whole idea around the book Limitless, is that we are so limited by everyone else's definitions of success and everyone else's expectations that we've lost ourselves in those limits. The reason I want people to define their own success and define their own goals is because they will be so hungry and so driven for those, that they will, in fact, be limitless A final message of wisdom and hope: My final message of wisdom and hope is to ask people to live on the edge of their incompetence. I think that we spend so much time being paid and praised and promoted for doing the things that we do well, for living in the centres of our excellence, that we don't spend enough time taking risks and putting one toe over that edge of incompetence and doing things we haven't yet done to figure out what else we're made of.

On a bonus episode of the ABA Banking Journal Podcast, ABA VP Krista Shonk outlines the process for modernizing Community Reinvestment Act regulations and how bankers can get involved. Shonk provides a detailed analysis of what’s in the OCC’s August advance notice of proposed rulemaking, including questions about ways the banking agencies can encourage more lending in areas that need it, clarify the types of activities that receive positive CRA consideration, update the assessment area concept and measure bank performance with a metric-based approach. Shonk also explains that the OCC will share public comments on the ANPR with the other banking agencies, informing the interagency process of modernizing CRA rules. For that reason, she encourages all banks — regardless of whether the OCC supervises them — to send a comment letter by Nov. 19. Shonk provides tips on writing a comment letter and describes ABA’s resources to help banks understand the process. Learn more at aba.com/ModernizingCRA.
