Podcasts about psyched up

The scripture tells us that before we sin there's an inflection point where we need to make a decision (James 1:13-15). It's at this inflection point we can choose God's strength - Psyched Out or Psyched Up.

If you're an athlete, you know that it can be helpful to get psyched up before a big game. But getting in the right mindset is important in any kind of high-stakes scenario, whether you want to perform your best in a big meeting, presentation, interview, audition, or conversation.My guest has some tips he gleaned from interviewing athletes, soldiers, entertainers, and executives on how to find that mindset. His name is Daniel McGinn, and he's the author of Psyched Up: How the Science of Mental Preparation Can Help You Succeed. The first step to getting into an optimal mindset is managing negative emotions, so we begin our conversation with what works in mitigating stress and anxiety. From there we talk about how to get others psyched up with an effective pep talk and why the leaders who came out of WWII used the classic rah-rah style more than leaders do today. We then discuss the role of music in getting yourself psyched up and what Daniel learned from the DJ for the Red Sox about crafting the perfect pump-up playlist. Daniel shares how visualization and having a personal highlight reel can put you in a positive headspace, and whether or not anger, competition, and trash talk improve performance.Resources Related to the PodcastAoM Podcast #569: How to Perform Your Best Under PressureAoM Podcast #757: How to Achieve Cognitive Dominance With Mark McLaughlinAoM Article: Competition — The Fuel for GreatnessConnect With Daniel McGinnDaniel on LinkedInDaniel on Twitter

A sense of belonging is essential to human existence. Our ancestors needed to be part of a social group to be safe and provided for. Our need for acceptance still drives us. As an example, being ostracized in today's ‘cancel' culture has been referred to as a type of death. To better understand how the human mind has evolved to deal with the pressures of 24-hour access to social media and more, Positive Psychology Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with the Professor of Psychology at the University of Toronto, Paul Bloom. Paul shares the key concepts from his latest book, PSYCH: The Story of the Human Mind, and provides answers about how social interactions, or the lack of them, might stave off human happiness.

Risky business can be taxing on the mind. The science confirms how much pressure we feel when forced to make sacrifices and tough decisions on the road to achievement. It reminds me of a story that I re-tell myself weekly. The story of the first $87 that started my radio career. I believe it's a story that can help you as well. Our conversation today is based on the decision-making areas of our brains which Carnegie-Mellon says is 80% excitatory cells and 20% inhibitory cells (in earlier stages). Neurobiologist Sandra Kuhlman highlights how our brains change over time and how that affects risk-taking. “The inhibitory cells—the traffic cop cells—they don't fully come online until after adolescence,” she shares, highlighting how young minds tend to be riskier. That's because the excitatory cells are dominant in younger ages. "Once the traffic cops do come online, they can dampen excitatory activity and even impede learning, but they also allow the brain to more effectively filter information and control behavior," writes Cara Masset for CMU. Although we become more skeptical and closed off to new information as we age, experts suggests that we can adjust to deep learning despite inhibitory dominance. We simply have to focus on changing. The anxiety of risk-taking is natural as we age. I believe that there may be better awaiting you on the other side of that risk. I look back on that night where I gave up $87 to make my dream of being on the radio come true. I harken to a question that Kiersten Schmidtke asks, "if money wasn't a factor, what would you do?" Looking back, that $87 felt like a million because I was just a kid, a few months out of school. We only know so much about tomorrow and we never know when we'll get the opportunity we have been praying for. No matter how big or how small the investment is, you've got to be ready for the opportunity. Daniel McGinn speaks on how important preparation is in his book Psyched Up: How the Science of Mental Preparation Can Help You Succeed. He found that many successful people spent time developing routines to help them prepare for big moments. "We often feel the most powerless just before we're expected to act powerful. As you'll learn in this life-changing book, practice might make perfect, but perfection is useless if you can't summon it when it counts," shares the book. Being prepared is part of making the risk worth it; it's part of cashing in on the necessary sacrifices along the journey of success. Then when we make those sacrifices, we must never forget them. According to Psychology Today, reminiscing is healthy. "Reminiscing is an important yet often underutilized method to help us manifest a state of pleasantness," writes Dr. Mike Rucker. "Activating positive memories can help suppress depression and build enduring intellectual, social, and psychological resources." I believe there's power in looking back on what you've accomplished and getting inspired to accomplish more. That's the power in re-living this unforgettable night in July 2012 and how it was the first domino to fall on my 14-year radio career. Let's take this walk and see if it can inspire you as well.

This is episode 8 in the “All Psyched Up About” series dedicated to the work of clinical psychologist, Daniel McMillan and his team at Assured Psychology, whereby each episode seeks to highlight a variety of issues and topics around mental health. In this episode, I was joined in the podcast studio by Dr. Robyn Lett, Registered Psychologist at Assured Psychology. The key areas of discussion focussed on ADHD and neurodivergence and the new era of the workplace goal setting vs intention setting (e.g., New Year resolutions, goal setting in life and career) self-regulation as a primary strategy for well-being §§§ Dr. Lett made reference to the following quote from writer and playwright, James Baldwin, that is fitting in the case of challenges people may face on a daily basis: “Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” §§§ Dr. Lett also provided the following references to books and resources that she often utilizes in her work Anxiety/Panic "Your survival instinct is killing you" - Mark Schoen "Comfortable with uncertainty" - Pema Chodron Depression "The mindful way through depression" - John Kabat-Zinn "A new Earth" - Echkart Tolle (also deals with trauma) ADHD "ADHD 2.0" - Edward Hallowell and John Ratey "Women with ADHD" - Sari Solden and Michelle Frank Russell Barkley on the Neuroanatomy of ADHD. Dr. Barkley wrote the textbook on ADHD. There is more to learn and understand, and probably a lot of nuance that has been added, but this 3-part talk really explains the working basis of the issue | YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/C2SJdOzvDi4 Burnout "The Body Says No" - Gabor Mate https://fivebooks.com/best-books/burnout-work-exhaustion-josh-cohen/ §§§ To learn more about the work of Dr. Robyn Lett and her colleagues at Assured Psychology, click on one or more of the following links: Assured Psychology Website | https://www.assuredpsychology.com LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/company/assured-psychology/ Facebook | @assuredpsych or https://www.facebook.com/assuredpsych/ Instagram | @assuredpsychology §§§ Mental Health | Psychology | Psychologist | Health Clinic | Counselling | Counseling | Mental Well Being | Therapy | Community Support | Mental Illness | Vulnerability | Vulnerable | Self-Esteem | Self-Value | Loneliness | Isolation | Depression | Couples Counseling | Men's Mental Health | Women's Mental Health | Anxiety | Stress | Resilience | Calgary | YYC | Alberta | Podcasting | Podcast Guest | Canada Podcast | ADHD | Goals | Goal Setting | Self-regulation | Psychosis | Rumination | Ruminate //End of podcast --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/allen-wazny/message

This is episode 6 in the “All Psyched Up About” series dedicated to the work of clinical psychologist, Daniel McMillan and his team at Assured Psychology, whereby each episode seeks to highlight a variety of issues and topics around mental health. §§§ In this episode, I was joined in the studio by Cody Harper, a social worker in the Assured Psychology offices here in the City of Calgary. Cody took a deep dive into providing guidance and recommendations around “How to stay present during Life's Stresses”. The discussion during Episode 6 focused around: ⇒ Good stress vs. Bad stress ⇒ Stress hormones – Cortisol ⇒ Rumination ⇒ Two methods to avoid or stop ruminating: (1) The “R-A-I-N” method and (2) the “A-C-E” method §§§ CONCLUDING THOUGHTS FROM CODY HARPER: Much of our stress is generated from the fear of not being good enough. Check your expectations; are they realistic?

We're back…mostly. In this episode we ramble about the Psychedemia conference, the serpent handler researcher who helped legitimize Johns Hopkins' psychedelic research, Steve Jobs' guru “Toxic Bob”, hot psilocybin patent garbage, Mind Medicine Australia's utterly cringe appearance on ABC's Four Corners documentary “Psyched Up”, popping psychedelic hype bubbles, and Dave's new studio that's covered in fractal horses.    References   A Channel for Magic: Ralph Hood's Mysticism Scale and the Occult Roots of the Johns Hopkins Psychedelic Research Program Psychologist Ralph Hood's study of serpent handling and mysticism helped legitimize the study of psychedelics.

This is episode 5 in the “All Psyched Up About” series dedicated to the work of clinical psychologist, Daniel McMillan, whereby he highlights a variety of issues and topics around mental health. §§§ In this episode, I was joined in the studio by Dave Ponak, a colleague of Daniel in the Assured Psychology offices in the City of Calgary. Dave shared his experiences of working with individuals and couples around managing mental health, with a particular focus on men. As I learned from Daniel McMillan during episode 4 and his comment: “...we are reducing barriers to normally hard to access employees…” …it is my view that Dave Ponak is also opening the proverbial door and reducing a similar barrier to allow men to share their feelings and emotions around managing and improving their mental health. §§§ To learn more about the work of Daniel McMillan and Dave Ponak as well as their fellow clinical psychologists at Assured Psychology, click on one or more of the following links: Website | https://www.assuredpsychology.com LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/company/assured-psychology/ Facebook | @assuredpsych or https://www.facebook.com/assuredpsych/ Instagram | @assuredpsychology §§§ Mental Health | Psychology | Psychologist | Health Clinic | Counselling | Counseling | Mental Well Being | Therapy | Community Support | Shame | Compassion | Mental Illness | Vulnerability | Vulnerable | Self-Esteem | Self-Value | Loneliness | Isolation | Depression | Self-Criticism | Self-Abandonment | Self-Care | Self-Worth | Couples Counseling | Men's Mental Health | Anxiety | Stress | Resilience | Calgary | YYC | Alberta | Podcasting | Podcast Guest | Canada Podcast | Emotions | Reactions | Relationships --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/allen-wazny/message

Rather than simply providing “Check the box” health benefits, this oil and gas major provides employees and contractors with on site access to the clinical psychologists from Assured Psychology for a 4-day period twice per month.

Med sine 15 koncerter på Roskilde Festival er Sune Wagner den musiker, der har spillet flest gange på festivalen nogensinde. I årene fra 1994 til 2014 har han besøgt festivalen med adskillige gange med Psyched Up Janis og The Raveonettes, samt som gæstemusiker og guitarist for bl.a. Sort Sol, The Tremolo Beer Gut og Niels Skousen. I det her afsnit fortæller Sune Wagner anekdoter fra de mange Roskilde-koncerter, som langt fra alle har været mindeværdige oplevelser.Vært: Sharin Foo. Tilrettelæggelse og produktion: Mikkel Falk Møller og Mikkel Bøgeskov.

I 90erne var Psyched Up Janis en del af den såkaldt grønne bølge i dansk rock. Der var dem, Passion Orange, Dizzy Mizz Lizzy, Kashmir og Inside The Whale. Senere blev Sune Wagner medlem af Tremelo Beer Gut og den ene halvdel af The Raveonettes - senere igen solist. Bassist Jakob Jørgensen fortsatte i Knallert, Childrenn og nu guitarrock/psychedelia-bandet Ring Them Bells. I anledning af en kommende gendannelse af Psyched Up Janis og hele fire nye Psyched Up Janis-album med diverse nyt og remastered materiale og Ring Them Bells' nye single 'The Fall', har Jan Eriksen talt med Jakob Jørgensen. Det er historien om - to Sønderborgdrenge, der fandt hinanden, selvom de egentlig var kommet skævt ind på hinanden på tennisbanerne. - gennembrudet med I Died in My Teens. - om ikke at være inspireret af grunge, men snarere at få bekræftet af Nirvanas Nevermind, at de ikke var alene. - om de hundrede af breve, de modtog fra fans, hvoraf nogle enkelte takkede PUJ for ikke at have begået selvmord. - om Sune Wagners teksters rod i hans eget liv. - om koncerten i den legendariske New York-klub CBGB's, som nu udkommer som live-lp, optaget gennem boardet i klubben, nu mastereret af Jan Eliasson, så det lyder cool. - om et møde på Bobi Bar i København, hvor Sune Wagner medbragte en ubehagelig besked. - de foreløbig fire gendannelser af Psyched Up Janis. Gruppen skal på turne som opvarmning for Dizzy Mizz Lizzy i 2022. - hvordan tilfældige møder til højre for Orange Scene i Roskilde kan føre til en ny gruppe. - den nye rolle som bassist i Ring Them Bells. - en tur på Christiania, der satte Jakob Jørgensens karriere i perspektiv.

Lev Rozenberg is an entrepreneur, expatriate and immigrant, being born in the USSR, growing up in Florida and now joining Kurt in Guadalajara. As a 17-year-old in Florida, he found himself having some kind of unusual mental experience while on the beach with friends. Perhaps it was a heatstroke, or a panic attack, or the build-up of stress from his schooling, but he began to have a seizure and ended up in hospital. The doctors did several tests and confirmed that there was nothing physically wrong with him. That led to additional anxiety - wondering when a seizure or panic attack would happen again, and he soon dropped out of school. Eventually he found a way to try psychotropic medications, and soon realized that they were causing more problems than they were solving - with physical pain and emotional numbing. Listen to the interview to find out Lev's journey and life lessons.

Today on 7-Figure Fundraising, host Trevor Bragdon is joined by Dan McGinn. Dan is an author and journalist who serves as the senior editor of the Harvard Business Review, host of the Dear HBR podcast, and is the author of the book Psyched Up: How the Science of Mental Preparation Can Help You Succeed.

In this titillating episode of Canceled: Tony is nowhere to be found, but luckily we found another Hispanic gentleman (Manny Morales) who is around the same height, weight, color, and shape as Tony so hopefully no one has noticed the switch. Connor enticingly opens the episode with his annoying ginger laughter because of the thought of someone getting "Psyched Up on E-Cig Juice" in their bloodstream. The Gang also tirelessly refutes their status as the only "Un-cancelable" podcast in existence by making the bold claim that no matter who gets "Canceled" the show will continue irregardless of social status, or number of subscribers and/or listeners to the podcast. Clint has also made aware the he has no regard for his continuous ingestion of potentially lead-based substances in the form of Mid-80's fast-food chain merchandise, and Manny is given one complete minute to outline and describe the horrendously deviant things he would do to Connor's holes.

Some people love rollercoasters and scary movies – but why? What is the appeal of being scared half to death? Today, you’ll find out why. http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2013/10/why-do-some-brains-enjoy-fear/280938/?single_page=trueWe’ve all been in the situation where we HAVE to perform well and because of that we lose our confidence, get nervous and catastrophize all the horrible things that could happen if we fail. Why on earth do we do that when it does nothing but makes us perform even worse? The trick is to “psych yourself up.” Daniel McGinn, senior editor at Harvard Business Review and author of the book, Psyched Up: How the Science of Mental Preparation Can Help You Succeed (http://amzn.to/2sv4p4Q) offers some suggestions, based on research, that can help you perform better when there is a lot on the line. How many times did you hear a teacher say to never to end a sentence with a preposition? Is it really such a sin?

Psyched Up Janis var et af Danmarks mest markante rockbands tilbage i 90'erne. Makkerparret Sune Rose Wagner og Jakob Jørgensen fandt hinanden på gymnasiet i Sønderborg og skabte et stykke unikt dansk musikhistorie - med en kæmpe følgerskare.Det var egentlig aldrig meningen, at Sune Rose Wagner skulle være frontmand. Han ville egentlig bare helst skrive sange og spille guitar. Men efter lang tids søgen fandt bandet ikke én, der kunne få det til at lyde, som de ville. Til sidst sagde Sune: "F**k det. Skal jeg ikke bare synge?". Resten er historie.Bandet har været gendannet få gange siden opløsningen i 1999 med afskedskoncert på Roskilde Festival. Men i november 2019 gav de to fuldlængdekoncerter på Turbinen i Randers - i et unikt semi-akustisk set-up. Journalist Michael Gonzalez fangede dem til en snak ind i mellem de to koncerter. Hør blandt andet om en rædselsfuld sangskriverlejr med Caroline Henderson, en pistolbærende rocker og en Rage Against The Machine-koncert med Neil Young. Alt det - og meget mere - med Psyched Up Janis Artist Talk.Denne Artist Talk er optaget 3. november 2019.Interview udført og tilrettelagt af Michael Gonzalez.Redigeret af: Jakob Meinert.Redaktør: Sophie Dürrfeld.Produceret af Spillestedet Turbinen, 2019.

In episode 5, Scott is joined by Harvard Business Review editor and author Daniel McGinn to discuss Dan’s book, Psyched Up: How the Science of Mental Preparation Can Help You Succeed, and the process of mental preparation before pivotal moments in life and business.

I’m just going to be completely honest, there are a lot of tips and actionable details in this episode about skills associated with mental resiliency and preparation. We talk about emotional resiliency and why that matters, and how you can improve it.

There are moments in our lives that can either make us or break us. When you are engulfed with the reality of a performance, what are the things you should do before even setting your foot on the stage? Harvard Business Review's Senior Editor Daniel McGinn shares self-liberating examples from his book Psyched Up. "If you haven't come up with a routine that lets you handle the flood of adrenaline you're going feel the moments before you walk on stage, it's going to detract from your performance." - Daniel McGinn 3 Things We Learned: Be prepared to deal with your make or break moments According to McGinn, there's a disproportionate thin slice of moments. Everyone can work as many hours in a year towards a goal but only a proportion of which can either make you or break you. How you set yourself up towards those moments matter. Market leaders usually don't look behind themselves too much Jeff Bezos and Amazon, for example, focus on the needs of their customers. Looking after competitors isn't that big of a priority. They create the rules and always refer back to their founding principles. Practice is never enough; exposure to reality is also necessary Train yourself to deal with the adrenaline, whatever industry or trade you belong. Be mentally prepared in order to perform at your very best. Otherwise, the anxiety will take away from your skills and hours invested. McGinn has always been fascinated with the moments in life. It started during his high school years. He saw how routines -- pep talks, trash talks, rituals, etc. -- equipped individuals in different circumstances and situations. How do you dominate a niche? How do you stay in the lead? What does science say about getting prepared to win? Perhaps, all you need is to get PSYCHED UP. Bio Daniel McGinn spent 17 years as a reporter, bureau chief, national correspondent, and senior editor at Newsweek, based on New York, Detroit, and Boston. In 2010, he joined Harvard Business Review where he now spends most of his time editing the IdeaWatch and How I Did It sections. He also manages the magazine's annual Best Performing CEOs in the World ranking and edits feature articles on topics including negotiation, sales, and entrepreneurship. His freelance writing has appeared in magazines including Wired, Inc., Fast Company, and The Boston Globe Magazine. McGinn has also appeared as a guest on NBC's Today Show, the CBS Morning Show, PBS's NewsHour, CNN, CNBC, MSNBC, and NPR. His books include PSYCHED UP, House Lust: America's Obsession with our Homes, and How I Did It: Lessons from the Front Lines of Business (as editor).

Daniel McGinn is a senior editor at Harvard Business Review and the author of Psyched Up: How the Science of Mental Preparation Can Help You Succeed. He was also recently named one of the top 100 leadership speakers for 2018 by Inc.   Daniel wanted to write a book about mental preparation and leadership for three reasons:   Going back to high school, Daniel was on a number of sports teams. He wasn't a star player, but he always tried his hardest. He became fascinated by the psychological and emotional tactics that coaches used to motivate their players, especially in the minutes leading up to a game. When Daniel got out of school, he saw former athletes turned professionals using some of those same techniques to psych themselves up for their jobs. When Daniel started working at HBR, he started seeing studies supporting the efficacy of mental preparation techniques for improving performance.   It's interesting to look at the pep talk as an example of these preparation techniques. In sports, business, and even the military, there are three elements that these pre-engagement speeches need to be effective:   Direction. The nuts and bolts; the offensive scheme, business plan, or battle strategy. Empathy. The leader needs to say things that make it clear he or she personally cares for the team. Actively try to build that connection so that the team wants to please and satisfy that leader. Meaning-making. Whatever the task is, make it seem more important, more meaningful, or related to a larger message.   Another prevalent and intriguing mental preparation technique is the pre-game ritual, which can be simultaneously “meaningless” and effective at building confidence (or even just making someone feel more comfortable).   LeBron James will walk to the center of the court and chalk his hands, and then he takes a handful of the chalk and makes it rain over his head; Jerry Seinfeld listens to Sinatra, puts on a suit jacket five minutes before the show, and paces in a certain pattern; Daniel puts on a pair of sound-blocking headphones.   So we don't always need to get “psyched up” to mentally prepare ourselves, but high achievers (and their mentors or coaches) develop techniques, sometimes unconsciously, that help them succeed. --     Resources: Learn more at PsychedUpBook.com Connect with Daniel on Twitter Read: Psyched Up: How the Science of Mental Preparation Can Help You Succeed --   We are brought to you by the Lawton Marketing Group, a full service advertising and design agency serving companies and entrepreneurs at all levels.

“Be Impeccable With Your Word. Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.” Don Miguel Ruiz Why sharing our feelings helps but venting only supports the ego that may induce and lead us into further suffering? We’ve all heard about the benefits associated to positive affirmations. Dan McGinn, the author of Psyched Up, talks about the power in performance by using a technique called reappraisal. Similar to affirmations it’s about reinforcing the positive stories we tell ourselves to booster confidence and reduce anxiety. Venting is often a focus on the negative. And it doesn't just involve kicking a chair or screaming at the top of our lungs. Venting evolves into inner dialogue that is too often negative in nature. In an interview I did with Cy Wakeman she said venting only promotes the ego. And if the ego if not controlled it can take us down paths we do not wish to walk. Venting assists it to do that. The ego is a story that we cling to, especially if we are not aware, that will lead us further into a state that is not conducive to success, performance or a positive sense of well-being. Cy’s thoughts were that we should not vent but share. In sharing, we can express our feelings and such expression is good for healing. Such expression is good for moving forward with your life. Venting, on the other hand, forces us to attach to a story that is not real, negative and often blown out of proportion. It takes the focus away from any lessons that may arise from an awareness of our feelings to focus on inner narration that is false and misleading. Next time you want to vent or are told to vent, stop yourself. Instead, seek to understand why you feel that way. Share your feelings either in self-reflection and thought or with another, explore its truth and depth. Then in understanding perhaps you can avoid future occurrences and more importantly you can move on with life in a more positive and happy state.

Daniel McGinn is a senior editor at Harvard Business Review, where he edits the IdeaWatch and How I Did It sections, manages the magazine’s annual Best Performing CEOs in the World ranking, and edits feature articles on topics including negotiation, sales, and entrepreneurship. In this episode, we discuss his newest book Psyched Up. Dan shares the science behind mental preparation that can help anyone succeed. Whether you're closing the sale. Asking for a raise. Nailing the big presentation. Of the 2,000 hours you work every year, your success or failure is determined in the couple of dozen crucial hours when you need to bring your absolute best. Will you?

Should you have a warm-up routine for work? According to Dan McGinn, what you do before a performance makes all the difference to that performance.

Maybe performing under pressure is easier than we think. In those moments before an interview, an exam, or a presentation, we often feel our worst. Yet Daniel McGinn, author of the book, Psyched Up: How the Science of Mental Preparation Can Help You Succeed believes we can decrease and even repurpose those anxious feelings to up our performance. Senior Editor of Harvard Business Review, Dan has written for Wired, Inc., The Boston Globe Magazine, and Newsweek. In this book, he draws on the fields of performance and sports psychology and shares quick and simple techniques we all can use. In this interview we discuss: Why we should take a page from pre-performance rituals of top athletes How we can leverage stress before a high-stakes event and maximize our performance What it means to fine-tune our emotions before a high-stakes event The role that centering plays to enhance high-level performance How pre-performance routines distract us from feeling anxious and prime us for the event Why that lucky pen, ring, or tie really can make a difference in our performance How the words we choose and the connections we make to something bigger than ourselves can help us psych up our teams Why a highly experienced, highly motivated team may not need a pep talk How listening to certain kinds of music can improve our performance in all kinds of tasks How a sports DJ is impacting two of the top sports teams in the U.S. Two factors that make a song motivational - how its musicality -- beats, tempo - resonate with us and how emotionally connected we feel to it How our self talk, our visualizations, and our mental rehearsals before an important event can improve our performance The important role priming -- physical and emotional - plays before a high-stakes event Why we should reflect back on past successes to increase our confidence in a new performance task How we can sit there feeling worried or we can develop a set of practices to give us confidence before a high-stakes event Links to Topics Mentioned in this Podcast @danmcginn http://www.psychedupthebook.com/ Improving Acute Stress Responses: The Power of Reappraisal Yuri Hanan and the Individual Zones of Optimal Functioning Don Greene and centering The River and Laura Donnelly and Hugh Jackman Malcolm Gladwell Peak by Anders Ericsson Stanley A.

If you’ve followed Anthony’s writing and work for any time at all you know how fascinated he is with the impact mindset has on success in sales. So it makes perfect sense that when he saw a book titled, “Psyched Up: How the Science of Mental Preparation Can Help You Succeed,” he had to read it. He was so impressed with the book he invited the author Daniel McGinn to be his guest on this episode of In The Arena. Anthony and Daniel talk about performance rituals, emotional preparation, the impact of music on motivation, and much more as it relates to sales success. It’s a fascinating conversation you’ll enjoy immensely. Daniel McGinn on Performance Rituals, Emotional Preparation, and Sales Success - Ep 96 Click To Tweet Feeling nervous is natural. This conversation will help you know what to do with those feelings. We’ve all heard of the “fight or flight” instinct, it’s part of our biological wiring that fuels us to take action. Though the things we face today aren’t typically considered “dangerous” as they were back in the day when that response was first needed, they are still many times high-stakes events where the nervousness we feel is similar. On this episode, Daniel McGinn tells how the nervous feelings we face can actually be a helpful thing for performance if we know how to deal with them rightly. He also talks about why the most common piece of advice we receive when we’re feeling nervous is actually the exact opposite of what we should do. Instead of trying to get rid of nerves we need to learn how to channel them toward success. “Hey, calm down. Relax. Breathe.” It’s common advice to hear when you’re nervous but Daniel McGinn says it’s the wrong advice. It’s physiologically impossible to calm down the hormonal surges going on at a time when we are about to perform. Instead of fighting an uphill battle it’s better to learn strategies for focusing that energy to better use than fear and anxiety. In this conversation Anthony digs into how exactly to do that with author Daniel McGinn, so don’t miss it. Instead of trying to get rid of #nerves we need to learn how to channel them toward #success @danmcginn #InTheArenaClick To Tweet Do pre-performance rituals legitimately work? From athletes, to musicians, to sales professionals, many people use a pre-performance routine to get themselves ready for their particular “go time.” What makes up those rituals is as unique as the individuals who devise them, but Daniel McGinn says they are proven to be helpful. Anthony and Dan talk about how varied pre-performance rituals can be effective even when they vary so widely in terms of what is actually being done, what it has to do with mental focus and determination, and how each person’s ability to deal with anxiety is the most determinative factor in their performance. Is music really helpful to prepare for go-time? It’s fascinating how wired human beings are for music. There’s something about the melodies, harmonies, and rhythms that can change our mood, set us up for suggestion, or prepare us for a big day. Daniel McGinn, author of “Psyched Up” says there is no denying that music is a powerful tool in preparing for performance or high-stakes events and he and Anthony discuss how their favorite tunes may not be the same as those chosen by others, and why that is. You’ll enjoy this wrap-up to the conversation.

Matt welcomes author and Senior Editor of the Harvard Business Review, Daniel McGinn to talk about his new book, "Psyched Up: How the Science of Mental Preparation Can Help You Succeed." A bit about the book from the author: The book looks at the science and practice of how professionals can learn to use techniques used by Olympic and pro athletes to get in the right mindset before they perform. Chapters look at the use of pep talks, motivational music, trash talk and rivalry, techniques to boost confidence and reduce anxiety, and even drugs to help you get in the mindset to perform. If your job involves pitching ideas, high-pressure negotiations, public speaking or presentations, or make-or-break sales calls, the techniques in the book should help people bring their A-game. The book has only been out a few weeks, but I've started hearing from companies such as Oracle that are buying the book for their sales teams because they think the ROI for people who learn these techniques is obvious. I'm also hearing from entrepreneurs who agree with Brad Feld, who said "This book is a gift for entrepreneurs or anyone else who pitches ideas for a living."

Harvard Business Review senior editor and author, Daniel McGinn, talked to us about his new book, Psyched Up and how the science of mental preparation can help your Sales game!

Dan McGinn is the author of  Psyched Up: How the Science of Mental Preparation Can Help You Succeed. The book focuses on the topic of science and mental preparation. Stress can effect everybody and people in sales are certainly not immune. Unlike athletes, sales leaders often do little mental preparation before big meetings or events but there is a lot of research suggesting that people who engage in certain behaviors before stressful activities or high-stakes performances perform better. The book highlights such activities as listening to motivational songs, having a routine, or performing a certain set of actions as great ways to get psyched up.

Dan McGinn, senior editor at Harvard Business Review, talks about what businesspeople can learn from how top performers and athletes prepare for their big moments.

McGinn talks about both the research and practical applications of mental preparation and motivation. He’s the author of the book, "Psyched Up: How the Science of Mental Preparation Can Help You Succeed." His article, “The Science of Pep Talks,” is in the July-August 2017 issue of Harvard Business Review.

A Primer on Sports Psychology for Young Athletes and Their Parents: An Interview with Dan McGinn, author of Psyched Up

Closing the sale. Asking for a raise. Nailing the big presentation. The last few minutes before a major challenge can be terrifying. We often feel the most powerless just before we’re expected to act powerful. Practice might make perfect, but perfection is useless if you can’t summon it when it counts. Pulling off a great speech or the pivotal at-bat also requires the right kind of mental preparation. In his new book, PSYCHED UP, journalist Daniel McGinn dives into the latest psychological research and interviews athletes, soldiers, entertainers and others who, despite years of practice and enviable track records, will ultimately be judged on their ability to deliver a solid performance when it’s their turn to shine. Daniel McGinn discusses: Why trying to calm backstage jitters can be worse for your performance than channeling it into excitement How meaningless rituals can do more to prepare you in the final moments than last-minute rehearsal How a prescription from your doctor could help you unleash your best skill How Jerry Seinfeld’s jacket and Stephen Colbert’s pen help them get laughs What General Stanley McChrystal said to Special Forces before they entered the battlefield Why the New England Patriots hired the DJ for the Red Sox to help them win How Muhammad Ali turned trash-talking into an art form. Whether you’re a sportsperson or a salesperson, an actor or an entrepreneur, one bad hour can throw away months of hard work. There’s so much conflicting popular advice that we often end up doing the wrong things. McGinn separates the facts from the old wives’ tales and shares new, research driven strategies for activating your talent, optimizing your emotions, and getting psyched up to take the spotlight. About the Author:DANIEL MCGINN is a senior editor at Harvard Business Review. His writing has appeared in Wired, Inc., the Boston Globe Magazine, and Newsweek. He lives in suburban Boston with his family.
