Go to www.InsightGlobal.com/LearningLeader William von Hippel grew up in Alaska, got his B.A. at Yale and his PhD at the University of Michigan, and taught for a dozen years at Ohio State University before finding his way to Australia, where he is a professor of psychology at the University of Queensland. He's the author of multiple books. A few months ago, he published The Social Paradox: Autonomy, Connection, and Why We Need Both to Find Happiness. Notes   Why do people who have comfortable lives filled with freedom and abundance still feel unhappy? Need two things… Connection and autonomy. Are leaders born or made? Yes. Like most things, it's not a black and white answer. The key is to use your unique strengths to effectively inspire others to do the work that must be done to achieve the goals of the team or company. How happy is Bill? He scores high on the genetics polygene(?) score. Some people are more genetically wired to be happy than others. You can fight against your genes and win. It's just harder for you than others with better genetics. What's my path of genetic least resistance? If you have low willpower, get the potato chips out of the house. Know yourself. Be yourself plus 20%. Overconfidence can be a good thing. Especially earlier in your career. Fake it til you make it. It can be good a lot of the time. He was overconfident as a new assistant professor, and it helped him. How you receive feedback is critical. Be honest, be kind His dad moved the family to Alaska because he didn't love being told what to do. He was a heart surgeon. Bill moved to Australia. A hard place to make friends because they don't move around much. He made connections with others who had moved there from out of the country. Life/Career advice: Too many choices can be bad. What are the elements of a job that I enjoy? What are my strengths? Leaders - It's lonely at the top. You need a group you can trust and enjoy their company. Google study - They do everything in teams. What's needed? Psychological safety. You need to be able to disagree with each other. Give feedback. It's on the leader to create healthy disagreement. And receive feedback in a way that encourages more of it. I was surprised by how much of our happiness, health, and strength were based purely on our genetics. Some people are just born happier, healthier, and stronger than you. It doesn't mean you can't be happy, healthy, or strong. It just means that you need to work harder to make it happen. That's life!

As a work psychologist with a storied career, Natalie highlights the importance of a personalized leadership field guide and the common pitfalls leaders face, such as imposter syndrome and burnout. Throughout the episode, Natalie elaborates on her comprehensive approach to leadership development, emphasizing the necessity of personal reflection and connecting with one's true leadership identity.

Charles Darwin once wrote that “Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge”, and real-life situations which reflect that are all too common. To cite just one prominent example, in January 1995, American men MacArthur Wheeler and Clifton Earl Johnson were arrested after carrying out coordinated bank robberies in the state of Pennsylvania. Incredibly, they didn't bother wearing masks, as they believed that rubbing lemon juice on their faces would make them invisible to security cameras. Actually no, but bear with me; I'm getting there. The case got a lot of media coverage, and piqued the curiosity of social psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger at Cornell University. They wanted to know how on earth someone could be so damn sure of themselves while believing something completely stupid. Where does this effect come from? Is that what the Dunning and Kruger effect is then? What are the consequences of the Dunning Kruger effect? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

https://chriscillizza.substack.com/p/tim-walz-has-a-bad-case-of-main-character Chris Cilizza writes: Tim Walz was a dud as vice presidential pick. He added zero to the ticket. In his one big moment — the vice presidential debate with JD Vance — he got beat. Badly. And looked hopelessly out of his depth. None of this is to say that if Kamala Harris had picked someone other than Walz she would be president right now. History tells us that VP picks almost never make any real difference. And I think that's true this time too. Had Harris picked, say, Josh Shapiro, she still would have lost. To my mind then, Walz was a sort of historical blip. Plucked from relative obscurity by Harris and then, after losing, sent back to that relative obscurity. Which isn't nothing! Being a governor of a state is a big deal! Being the VP nominee is a huge deal! But, in politics, water usually finds its level. And Walz's level was not — and is not — national politics. This is obvious to anyone who has spent any amount of time covering or watching politics. It is not obvious, however, to Tim Walz. Since the election loss, Walz has slowly but surely tried to fashion a narrative that he was under-utilized during the campaign. And that had he been properly deployed a) he would have shined and b) Harris might have won. According to Google AI: Main Character Syndrome (MCS) is a colloquial term used to describe a person's tendency to see themselves as the central figure in their own life story, often with an inflated sense of self-importance. Characteristics: Exaggerated sense of significance Belief that their experiences are more important than others Self-centeredness and lack of empathy Need for attention and validation Drama queen tendencies Difficulty accepting criticism Viewing others as supporting characters in their story MCS can have negative impacts on relationships, work, and overall well-being. It can lead to: Strained relationships due to self-centeredness, Difficulty collaborating with others, Overconfidence and poor decision-making, and Increased anxiety and depression. If you suspect you have MCS, it's important to: Reflect on your behavior and identify areas where you can improve. Develop empathy and consider the perspectives of others. Set realistic expectations about your importance. Seek professional help if needed to address underlying psychological issues.

March 13, 2025Today's Reading: Catechism: The Creed - The First ArticleDaily Lectionary: Genesis 11:27-12:20; Mark 4:21-41He defends me against all danger and guards and protects me from all evil. (Small Catechism: The Creed - The First Article, Explanation)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. “Though devils all the world should fill, all eager to devour us, we tremble not, we fear no ill; they shall not overpower us.” Churches around the world sang these words this week after hearing how our Lord Jesus Christ overcame the devil and his temptations. These are words of sure confidence in the face of a powerful foe.Although, let us not become overconfident. The devil is powerful, but he is also cunning. Scripture depicts him as an angel of light (2 Cor. 11:14), a prowling lion (1 Pet. 5:8), and a great liar and deceiver (Rev. 12:9). It would not be beyond that old serpent to throw a few battles and feign defeat in the hopes of winning the overall war for your soul.Overconfidence happens when we turn from God's provision and protection to our own powers. Overconfidence happens when our faith shifts from our heavenly Father to the strength of our own faith. Overconfidence is when we decide that it is God who needs the defense and protection and that we are the ones who can provide it. God does not need our apologetics.The confidence that we have in the face of the old, evil foe, the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world, is the Truth. Not just any truth, but Truth with a capital T. Jesus is the Truth who stands up against the devil's lies, even when they sound oh so sweet. And this Truth is God's Word. He is the Word made flesh, and He cannot but speak the Word of God.The Father sends us this Truth to defend us against all danger and guard and protect us from all evil. And it is this Truth upon which our faith rests and from which our confidence grows. Martin Luther's famous hymn completes its third stanza with the ground of our confidence: “This world's prince may stillScowl fierce as he will, He can harm us none. He's judged; the deed is done; One little word can fell him.” Put your faith in God's Word, in Jesus Christ and His Gospel, for the Father cannot deny His own Word. He will guard you and protect you against all danger and evil.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Though devils all the world should fill, All eager to devour us, We tremble not, we fear no ill; They shall not overpow'r us. ( LSB 656:3)-Rev.

Don Moore, a leading expert on decision science, breaks down why most people—especially successful ones—tend to be too sure of themselves in areas they know little about.

In this episode, we delve into the link between overall retirement quality and the confidence you have in your financial plan. We emphasize how a well-designed retirement strategy tailored to your needs, not solely reliant on market performance, is pivotal for boosting confidence and making your retirement plan a reality you can rely on. Addressing common fears, exploring emotional extremes, and understanding the evolving landscape of retirement planning, will help you discover the significance of income-focused strategies and a diversified asset approach in building confidence in your retirement plan. When it comes to retirement, your quality of life in these golden years is often predicated on the level of confidence you have regarding your situation. A poorly-designed retirement plan can often cause emotional confusion, which leaves you feeling insecure and lacking confidence. Confidence is typically at its peak when a plan is optimized and is designed around meeting the needs of the client and not relying entirely on market performance. Retirement confidence is in direct correlation with how well your plan is designed to manage your exposure to risk and its ability to fulfill cash flow requirements. A plan built on hope and optimism can lead to very emotional times when the market doesn't work out the way you'd hoped. Many client conversations relating to retirement are often centered around insecurities the client is working through. Common fears include running out of money before running out of life, market crashes, having a health crisis, missing opportunities, or simply making mistakes. There are typically two emotional extremes, no confidence or complete overconfidence. A lack of confidence leads to avoidance behavior and avoiding decisions, which often makes a person vulnerable to the very things they are afraid of. Overconfidence leads people to underestimate their vulnerabilities. Being skittish or practicing decision avoidance or fearing the idea of making a bad decision are all confidence killers, and the ultimate irony of this behavior is actually preventing the solution from being implemented, which can turn your fears into a reality. Confidence is about being able to rely on your retirement plan to do what you need it to do. If your retirement plan is anchored to the stock market, your confidence level relies entirely on the performance of the market. Most people's retirement plans involve a stock market portfolio they plan to liquidate over time, Social Security, and a pension, but that's really just the start. This paradigm seems to be rooted in watching our parents or grandparents work for decades in the same job and then retire with their pensions and Social Security benefits. However, circumstances have changed, and what worked back then isn't going to cut it now. Pensions and company-provided retirement plans have been on the decline since the 1980's. Baby Boomers started putting their money into retirement plans starting in the 90's, which caused a growing stock market. 2016 was the first year that Baby Boomers started taking out money from those accounts. Those who ran the markets up are now the same group that is putting selling pressure on the markets, but there are other influences as well: government spending and policy, Fed policy, pandemics, interest rates, inflation, and more. When you lack certainty in the market, algorithms and a 24/7 news cycle can exacerbate the situation. There are two fundamental things that can have a profound impact on your retirement confidence. First is solving for income using income products. The foundation of a retirement plan is to generate consistent income, and unfortunately, consistency is not synonymous with the stock market. Separating your assets between long-term growth in public investments and income-generating private and fixed assets is a crucial component of being confident in your overall retirement plan.     Mentioned in this episode: BrianSkrobonja.com Common Sense Financial Podcast on YouTube  Common Sense Financial Podcast on Spotify Common Sense: YOUR Guide to Making Smart Choices with YOUR Money by Brian Skrobonja Brian's article - ‘Five Common Retirement Mistakes and How to Avoid Them'     References for this episode: https://www.dol.gov/general/topic/retirement/erisa https://www.thestreet.com/personal-finance/baby-boomers-could-cause-market-crash-12117996 https://www.forbes.com/sites/lizfrazierpeck/2021/02/11/the-coronavirus-crash-of-2020-and-the-investing-lesson-it-taught-us/?sh=17701bd846cf https://www.marketwatch.com/story/u-s-stocks-would-be-much-lower-if-it-wasnt-for-excessive-government-spending-morgan-stanleys-mike-wilson-says-1b8e65d2 https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/what-does-the-fed-do-and-how-does-it-impact-the-stock-market https://thefga.org/blog/president-biden-is-wrong-about-esg-heres-why/?gclid=CjwKCAjwvfmoBhAwEiwAG2tqzIhc3F2QbmLEygcbkIg9eV7bhXUz3dzXhO1A_hTNE3hNsMbTug59txoCPcwQAvD_BwE https://centerpointsecurities.com/stock-market-algorithms/#:~:text=The%20main%20thing%20traders%20need,because%20you%20may%20lose%20fast. https://www.statista.com/statistics/191077/inflation-rate-in-the-usa-since-1990 https://www.bankrate.com/banking/cds/historical-cd-interest-rates     Securities offered only by duly registered individuals through Madison Avenue Securities, LLC.

Segment 1: Complacency – The Silent Drift "Let's start with complacency. It's the idea that ‘I'm good where I'm at'—the spiritual autopilot. Maybe we've read the Bible enough, prayed enough, or served enough that we start thinking we've ‘arrived.' But the Bible warns us about this. Revelation 3:16 says, ‘So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth.' That's a strong warning! Complacency leads to stagnation. We stop growing, stop striving, and soon, we're spiritually asleep. So, how do we fight it? Stay hungry for the Word, set new spiritual goals, and challenge yourself in your walk. Surround yourself with people who push you toward God, not just comfort." Segment 2: Overconfidence – The Subtle Pride "Then there's overconfidence. Thinking we're strong enough on our own, we stop depending on God. 1 Corinthians 10:12 warns, ‘So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall!' Even Peter, who walked on water, denied Christ when he thought he was strong enough to stand on his own. Overconfidence makes us pray less, read less, and trust ourselves more than God. The enemy loves it when we're running on self-power, because that's when we're most vulnerable. So, how do we fight this? Stay humble. Daily surrender to God. Keep your dependence on Him. Never let past victories make you think you don't need to suit up for battle today." Segment 3: Distraction – The Hidden Enemy "If the devil can't destroy you, he'll distract you. And today, distractions are everywhere—social media, entertainment, endless scrolling, busyness. Luke 10:41-42 tells the story of Martha and Mary. Jesus says, ‘Martha, Martha, you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one.' We can be so busy doing everything but spending time with Jesus. And that's exactly how distraction works—it fills up our schedules and minds so there's no room left for God. So, how do we fight it? Be intentional. Set aside time for God first. Turn off the noise. Protect your focus." Segment 4: Desensitization – The Slow Fade "Desensitization happens when we get used to things that once convicted us. Maybe it's the content we consume, the language we hear, the attitudes we accept. We start compromising in small ways, and soon, things that once grieved us don't even bother us anymore. Romans 12:2 tells us, ‘Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.' We can't let culture define what's acceptable—only God can do that. To fight desensitization, we have to constantly realign our hearts with Scripture and ask the Holy Spirit to keep our hearts soft toward the things that matter." Segment 5: Apathy – The Lack of Fire "Lastly, apathy. When we just don't care as much anymore. Maybe we've been hurt, disappointed, or just weary. But indifference is dangerous. Revelation 2:4 says, ‘Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first.' If your passion for God has faded, it's time to reignite it. Remember what He has done. Serve others. Get back to prayer and worship—not just as a habit, but as a lifeline. Apathy is defeated when we stir up the fire of faith again." "So, let's recap: complacency, overconfidence, distraction, desensitization, and apathy—these are the real threats we face today. Not external attacks, but internal erosion. But here's the good news: we don't have to fall for them. God gives us everything we need to stay strong. Take action today. Ask yourself, ‘Where have I let my guard down?' and invite God to reignite your passion and focus.   www.TheSecondAdam.com

While waiting for mercy... show mercy! For those who are doubting, those who have been tricked by false teachers - for those who have just plain fallen back into sin, what do we do? Christianity is all about redemption, but there is a danger. The lifeguard knows that when he swims out to rescue a drowning man, he's putting his own life at risk. Overconfidence can be fatal.

Toxic Employees Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Toxic employees can ruin a startup's culture. Here are signs you have a toxic employee: Overconfidence -- they believe they can do more than they actually can. This leads to blown projects, missed deadlines, and poor morale in the group. Self-absorbed -- they believe the world revolves around themselves. This makes it difficult for them to work well with others in the group. Rule breakers -- they don't follow the rules as they see themselves above it all. This creates disruption in the organization. Uncooperative -- they want to run every meeting and project in their own way. This makes it difficult to complete projects. Disrespect -- they don't respect others in the group. This fosters a sense of disunity in the organization. To resolve these situations, have a discussion with the employee about their behavior. Bring hard evidence to the discussion to make clear the toxicity. If the behavior doesn't change, it may be time to separate from the employee.   Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at:   Check out our other podcasts here:   For Investors check out:   For Startups check out:   For eGuides check out:   For upcoming Events, check out    For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group    Please , share, and leave a review.

What drives us to bid at auctions? In this episode, we throw it back to where it all began, revisiting our very first episode that set the stage for everything we’ve explored since. Behavioural biases—those sneaky little tricks your brain plays—are at the heart of this conversation, and we talk about all 12 of them, plus a few extras that make auctions the fascinating psychological arenas they are. Simon Russell, a behavioural scientist, joins us to break down the surprising ways our subconscious minds react under pressure. From something as simple as a free coffee outside an auction to the auctioneer’s clever use of anchoring, scarcity, and loss aversion, Simon explains how these cues shape our decisions. The reciprocity effect alone—a cup of coffee making you feel like you owe the auctioneer something—might have you rethinking the next time you pick up a bidder’s paddle. We also get into the emotional rollercoaster that happens when the stakes are high. The auctioneer’s job as a kind of circus master becomes clear when Simon talks about their subtle tactics, like smiling and nodding to encourage bids or creating a sense of urgency with phrases like, “First, second, third…” It’s all designed to keep you—and your wallet—engaged. Looking back, this conversation with Simon didn’t just lay the foundation for the podcast; it opened our eyes to how much of our behaviour at auctions (and in life) is guided by things we don’t even notice. And while the episode may be nearly seven years old, these lessons are just as relevant today. So, if you’re a seasoned bidder or just curious about what’s going on in your own head, this is one you’ll want to hear—or hear again. Episode Highlights: 00:00 - Introduction 01:43 - How the podcast came about 05:36 - Who is Simon Russell? 06:30 - What behavioural patterns did you observe at the auction? 07:24 - First bias: Reciprocity effect 10:43 - Does awareness of these biases help mitigate their impact? 11:45 - Second bias: Scarcity effect 16:24 - Third bias: Anchoring 24:46 - Fourth bias: Loss aversion 29:22 - Fifth bias: Framing effect 32:22 - Sixth bias: Sunk cost fallacy 33:36 - Seventh bias: Commitment and consistency effect 39:01 - Eighth bias: Social proof: Herd mentality 43:54 - Ninth bias: Recency effect 48:17 - Tenth bias: Mental accounting 51:31 - Eleventh bias: Overconfidence 54:45 - Twelfth bias: Disposition effect About Our Guest: Simon Russell is the founder and Director of Behavioural Finance Australia (BFA).

Career growth is a continuous process that requires both personal initiative and organizational assistance. To have a great career, you must approach your work with curiosity, always seeking fresh knowledge and ideas. Active listening to others, particularly those with more experience, enables you to learn useful insights and form lasting relationships. Equally vital is the mindset of contributing and aiding others, whether by assisting your team or understanding the wider picture of your organization's progress. Fawn Radmanich joined us for another insightful conversation about building a killer career in construction. She is a 24-year AEC industry veteran who has been a dedicated member of the Society for Marketing Professional Services (SMPS) for the past 19 years. Working with teams to secure multi-million- and billion-dollar design and construction projects, creating chances for individuals and organizations to have a brand influence, and figuring out how to promote employee engagement and a sense of belonging are some of her passions and areas of competence. She has worked on over 800 pursuit efforts across multiple market sectors, including higher education, civic, theme park entertainment, aviation, data centers, seismic/historic renovations, sports, hospitality, and many more.   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS [07:17] Create a long-term, mutually beneficial relationship.

In this episode of Enrich Your Future, Andrew and Larry Swedroe discuss Larry's new book, Enrich Your Future: The Keys to Successful Investing. In this series, they discuss Chapter 21: You Can't Handle the Truth.LEARNING: Overconfidence leads to poor investment decisions. Measure your returns against benchmarks. “If you think you can forecast the future better than others, you're going to ignore risks that you shouldn't ignore because you'll treat the unlikely as possible.”Larry Swedroe In this episode of Enrich Your Future, Andrew and Larry Swedroe discuss Larry's new book, Enrich Your Future: The Keys to Successful Investing. The book is a collection of stories that Larry has developed over 30 years as the head of financial and economic research at Buckingham Wealth Partners to help investors. You can learn more about Larry's Worst Investment Ever story on Ep645: Beware of Idiosyncratic Risks.Larry deeply understands the world of academic research and investing, especially risk. Today, Andrew and Larry discuss Chapter 21: You Can't Handle the Truth.Chapter 21: You Can't Handle the TruthIn this chapter, Larry discusses how investors delude themselves about their skills and performance, leading to persistent and costly investment mistakes.The deluded investorAccording to Larry, evidence from the field of behavioral finance suggests that investors persist in deluding themselves about their skills and performance. This persistent self-deception leads to costly investment mistakes, emphasizing the need for continuous vigilance in investment decisions.Larry quotes a New York Times article in which professors Richard Thaler and Robert Shiller noted that individual investors and money managers persist in believing that they are endowed with more and better information than others and can profit by picking stocks. This insight helps explain why individual investors think they can:Pick stocks that will outperform the market.Time the market, so they're in it when it's rising and out of it when it's falling.Identify the few active managers who will beat their respective benchmarks.The overconfident investorLarry adds that even when individuals acknowledge the difficulty of beating the market, they are buoyed by the hope of success. He quotes noted economist Peter Bernstein: “Active management is extraordinarily difficult because there are so many knowledgeable investors and information does move so fast. The market is hard to beat. There are a lot of smart people trying to do the same thing. Nobody's saying that it's easy. But possible? Yes.”This slim possibility keeps hope alive. Overconfidence, fueled by this hope, leads investors to believe they will be among the few who succeed.Why investors spend so much time and money on actively managed mutual fundsLarry also examined another study, Positive Illusions and Forecasting Errors in Mutual Fund Investment Decisions,...

How could they do such a thing! When was the last time you thought that? Maybe it came to mind the moment you heard of a church leader falling into sin. Or perhaps right after you hear that somebody at work was fired for wrong behavior. Today on a Daily Walk we'll see that pride is a problem in the church today. We're just as capable of falling into sin as the next guy or gal! And that's why we need to lean on the Lord and draw on His grace.

James Kostohyrz argues there's a real chance that Israel and Iran are going to war.  Like bombs and missiles.  Real war. If so, what's Iran's first move?  Shut down the Strait of Hormuz and immediately block 20% of the world's oil production.  Oh crap.  What would that mean for oil prices?   It's a scary yet possible scenario we are facing.  Horrifying with huge ramifications for oil prices.  James argues it's not priced into today's crude prices.Digital Wildcatters brings the energy community together through events, cutting-edge content, and powerful tools.
