Podcasts about rational living

Într-o lume care idolatrizează munca excesivă, tot mai mulți dintre noi devenim captivi ai cultului productivității. Acest episod explorează cum dorința de a fi mereu productiv ne poate acapara viața, transformând munca într-o obsesie care ne lasă puțin spațiu pentru bucurie și relaxare. Eduard Ezeanu, psihoterapeut si coach, ne ajută să înțelegem cum convingerile distorsionate ne împing să muncim din ce în ce mai mult, în speranța că vom obține recunoaștere, succes și fericire. Descoperim cum societatea și influențele din jurul nostru contribuie la perpetuarea acestei mentalități dăunătoare. În acest episod, discutăm despre diferența dintre productivitatea sănătoasă și cea nesănătoasă, și despre strategiile pe care le putem adopta pentru a ne elibera de presiunea constantă de a performa. Aflăm cum putem redefini valorile personale și cum putem redescoperi bucuria în activități care nu sunt legate de muncă, de la socializare și creativitate, la pur și simplu a savura un moment de relaxare.

Not long ago, we stumbled upon a blog post by Jonathan Fields called “Embrace the Thrash.” In it, Jonathan discusses the stressful challenges of building anything new. We loved it, especially the word “thrash.” It really describes what almost everyone encounters when starting something from scratch. It's hard to describe, but you feel it and you know it's for real. In this new podcast, Dave Jenks discusses this “thrash” post and what he has done to help get through tension-filled times. He shares the mindset and the pragmatic techniques that minimize the stress and maximize the success. In the end, he shares the four classic books that have guided him and why they are so helpful.

Offering an alternative to positive thinking, John Vespasian has created a genre of books around rational living. Vespasian is the author of 11 books and has lived in Germany, Italy, France, Spain and The Netherlands. He has turned his international background and his interest in history into a breed of personal-development books that emphasize rationality, resilience, and learning from real-life examples. His books contain the wisdom he has accumulated through decades of research.  “It's all about learning from other people's successes and mistakes, and figuring out how to apply those principles to your own life. In every book, I go through biographies and historical events with the goal of extracting from them lessons we can use right now." His books include “When everything fails, try this” (2009), “Rationality is the way to happiness” (2009), “The philosophy of builders” (2010), “The 10 principles of rational living” (2012), “Rational living, rational working” (2013), “Consistency: The key to permanent stress relief” (2014), “On becoming unbreakable” (2015), “Thriving in difficult times” (2016), “Sequentiality: The amazing power of finding the right sequence of steps” (2017), “Undisrupted: How highly-effective people deal with disruptions” (2019), and "Asymmetry: The shortcut to success when success seems impossible" (2020). Find his books here: http://bit.ly/JohnVespasianBooksFresh Blood - John Vespa[00:00:00] Hello, and welcome to Fresh Blood, a podcast about killing it in the age of age-ism, where we prove that new blood does not necessarily equal young blood here to discuss what it takes to have continued success through life. I'll be your host Jolie downs. With over 20 years of executive recruiting experience, I've learned how much we can grow and be inspired by other people's stories.[00:00:25] I'm excited to share that with you. Here on fresh blood.[00:00:32] Thank you for joining us today on fresh blood today, we are speaking with John . He is the author of 11 books about rational living. He has turned his international background and his personal interest in history into a breed of personal development books that emphasize rationality, resilience and learning from real life examples.[00:00:54] His latest book was recently published "Asymmetry, the Shortcut to Success. [00:01:00] When Success Seems Impossible", John, thank you so much for joining us on fresh blood. Please tell us a little bit more about your path to becoming a published author. I'd love to hear how you ended up becoming a writer and then, how you found success in this field.[00:01:15] And it's a very interesting story I have to say because the reason why I started to write, it was now 11 years ago, was out of pure frustration. I have to say that I'm a voracious reader in areas  like history, personal development, psychology marketing, personal finance, where I read a lot and at a certain point I cannot find the kind of books I wanted to read.[00:01:41]Especially on personal development. I wanted to find books that are very practical, very factual very low key. I'm not so much in favor of this positive thinking fashion we have now. So I started to write the kind of books I could not find. And I have been doing now this for 11 [00:02:00] years.[00:02:00]My books are useful in the sense that they reflect my passion for history, my passion for personal development. So what I try to do in in each book is to go through really that history and of biographies of different people in different centuries, different countries, different professions to try to extract practical lessons.[00:02:22] That we can use today in the 21st century. So this is what I've been doing for the last 11 years. And I have to tel

John Vespasian is the author of seven books about rational living, including “When Everything Fails, Try This“, “Rationality Is the Way to Happiness“, and “The 10 Principles of Rational Living.” Favorite Success Quote “A small dose of rationality is worth a large amount of positive thinking” Key Points 1. Rationality, not Positivity is the Way to Success We live in an era of positive thinking, where people value a good attitude over rational thought. If you want to be successful, you have to approach all of your endeavors with a rational mind. Base your assumptions off of history and practice, not off of positive psychology. 2. Be an Entrepreneur Not a Crusader One of the biggest mistakes many would-be prolific entrepreneurs and business owners made is that they allowed their mission to become a crusade. Instead of simply working on growing their business and their profit, they focused on forcing their message down other people’s throats instead of allowing their success to speak for itself. 3. Focus on Achieving Success Not Converting Haters  If you do anything big in the world of business (or the world in general) you are going to have haters. This is simply a fact of life. But instead of focusing on converting your haters into fans through debate and argument, ignore them and allow your success to speak for itself. 4. You Have to Test Everything  No matter how good an idea works in one niche or market, there is no guarantee that you will have repeat success when you try again in a new market or environment. You have to learn to test everything. For example, if you have a sales letter that made you $10,000 in a day with one of your email lists, there is no guarantee that the same letter will work with a list targeted at a different demographic. Test first before you invest time and money into something that may or may not work in the new environment. 5. Accept the Inevitable Hassles in Life  Life can be a hassle, there is no way around it. There are things that you will have to do that will suck, there are things you are going to experience that will not be fun and will not be enjoyable. Instead of pretending that positive thinking can make these problems disappear, accept them as a part of life with a rational mind and simply grin and bear it.

We all have a plan of some sort. At times we can become comfortable and plateau, or even take a dive.  Distractions in life have a way of making us feel relieved, and some can make us feel defeated, but all distractions are equal. We have to be living our lives in a rational and focused way that serves our growth and prosperity in order to fulfill our plans and dreams. To be intentional in reaching for new goals, it's all about making rational decisions that motivate you in the right direction. Seeking growth both personally and in business is only the first step.  You have to remain focused and rational in order to achieve. You cannot let distractions stop you from living your purpose.  Listen in as John Vespasian and Steve Kidd talk about how to live rationally and effectively reach your goals in spite of the distractions that will try to get in the way.

My friend told me a story about how during one evening’s bedtime rituals with her kids, she completely lost it when her son wouldn’t brush his teeth.  She grabbed the toothpaste tube and angrily squirted the entire tube on his toothbrush and all over the floor.  I reassured her that this was not the insane behaviour of a lunatic but … Read more about this episode...

The Grand Summary Of Rational Living... [Inner Transformation Series by MK Ramanujam]

Crusaders are motivated by the desire to win over their opponents. Entrepreneurs want to find buyers for their products, even if the rest of the world laughs at them. - John Vespasian, The 10 Principles of Rational Living John Vespasian is the author of seven books about rational living, self-reliance, self-mastery and entrepreneurship. His works include "When Everything Fails, Try This" (2009), "Rationality Is the Way to Happiness" (2009), "The Philosophy of Builders: How to Build a Great Future with the Pieces from Your Past" (2010), "The 10 Principles of Rational Living" (2012), "Rational Living, Rational Working: How to Make Winning Moves When Things Are Falling Apart" (2013), "Consistency: The Key to Permanent Stress Relief" (2014), and "On Becoming Unbreakable: How Normal People Become Extraordinarily Self-Confident" (2015). He joins me today to discuss the first principle from his book "The 10 Principles of Rational Living," contrasting the stories of doctor Ignaz Semmelweis and film maker Luis Buñuel to illustrate the importance of thinking like an entrepreneur, instead of like a crusader. We also discuss five differences between difficult undertakings and hopeless enterprises: 1. Are you creating new assets? 2. Are you dealing with friendly people? 3. Are you acquiring new skills? 4. Can your project expand? 5. Will it contribute to your personal growth?

Big Ideas include myths about change, the 2 things we need to do to change, and optimizing our locus of control.

JOHN VESPASIAN is the author of eleven books about rational living, including “When everything fails, try this” (2009), “Rationality is the way to happiness” (2009), “The philosophy of builders” (2010), “The 10 principles of rational living” (2012), “Rational living, rational working” (2013), “Consistency: The key to permanent stress relief” (2014), “On becoming unbreakable” (2015), “Thriving in difficult times” (2016), “Sequentiality: The amazing power of finding the right sequence of steps” (2017), “Undisrupted: How highly-effective people deal with disruptions” (2019), and "Asymmetry: The shortcut to success when success seems impossible" (2020). Vespasian has lived in Germany, Italy, France, Spain and The Netherlands. His books combine his passion for history, investing, and personal development, reflecting his philosophy of rational living, productiveness, and respect for the individual. "The purpose of my work is to draw practical lessons from history," he explains. "If you want to make good decisions, you have to look at the big picture, and learn from the wisdom accumulated in centuries of human experience." "Knowledge is the only valid response to stress, the only formula that can make you more effective," Vespasian argues. "My books contain the wisdom I have accumulated in decades of research. It's all about learning from other people's successes and mistakes, and figuring out how to apply those principles to your own life. In every book, I go through biographies and historical events with the goal of extracting from them lessons we can use right now. If you love this show, please leave us a review.
