Constant and Never-Ending Improvement; The Attitude of Effective Leaders. God calls us to Constant and Never-Ending Improvement. We are called to be NEW CREATIONS, getting better mentally, spiritually, emotionally and personally. This is why we believe the sign of a Leader is, Under Construction. The Japanese are world renowned for their quality of life, and of manufacturing. What I believe makes the Japanese people stand out is their attitude, their mindset of Continual Improvement. An American named Dr. Deming went to Japan after America defeated them in WW2. Dr. Deming taught the Japanese and important principle of life: Quality always costs less! He posited to the Japanese that if they could just focus on constantly improving, they would eventually be globally dominant. Today on Like It Matters Radio Mr. Black wants to focus in on 6+1 mindsets that the Japanese use to keep their hearts and minds focused on Constant and Never-Ending Improvement: Ikigai, Kaizen, Pomodoro Technique, Hara Hachi Bu, Shoshin, Wabi-Sabi and Kata. Tune into Like It Matters Radio for an hour of Power as Mr. Black helps listeners get their minds right! Because it is that attitude that causes a leader to live their life like it Matters!

Fredrik paid a visit to Hogia and got the opportunity to talk to Woody Zuill and Martin Lassbo about mob programming, innovation, and keeping an open and curious mind. Mob programming is still new. Every time you say “that can’t work”, you tend to be proven wrong eventually. Try it, for a year or two. You can’t evaluate things after trying it for just an hour or two, some things take much longer. But do steer and adjust often. How frequently do you want to steer? Short iterations are valuable in that they give us more opportunities to steer work in a good direction. Standardization stifles innovation. Sometimes you do want it, but it depends on which space you’re in. We had a process, but we still succeeded! Where did the thought I have originate? All your thoughts started somewhere else. The things we most believe can hide our biggest mistakes. Thank you Cloudnet for sponsoring our VPS! Comments, questions or tips?

While the Buddha assured us that it's healthy to be aware of all our different intentions, he also suggested that once we've planted the seeds of our plans, our practice becomes surrendering to any determined outcome whatsoever – to truly let go, of all of it. This talk on Shoshin, or “Beginner's Mind,” is aimed at helping us to let go more and more often by inviting us to see all things as new – including all situations, people, and especially ourselves – rather than clinging so tightly to our preconceived beliefs and expectations, which tend to keep us stuck. It includes a meditation at the end.
Mente de cinturão branco, de aprendiz ou mente Shoshin são termos usados nas artes marciais para descrever um olhar curioso, atento e sem preconceitos.

Clica no play e vem perceber como é que o Ricardo aplica este conceito nos seus negócios, que o obriga a não ceder às armadilhas do ego mas ao mesmo tempo a libertar o espaço mental necessário para a inovação e crescimento essenciais para o marketing digital.
What are the Three Realms of Excellence?They are Leadership Aspirations that, when pursued, prepare and preserve an organization's ability to achieve excellence.The Three Realms of Operational Excellence (Op-Ex) describe a condition of being that, at first, an organization strives to achieve, and then later to maintain, so that its pursuit of noble purpose, and the fulfillment of its vision are both conceivable and possible.The three Realms of Op-Ex provide an organization with the platform and strategic blueprint needed to implement a Learning Organization and achieve Excellence.Why are the Three Realms of Excellence important?Rational reason – Recognizing the three realms, and pursuing them in order, is the only approach that results in a healthy, sustainable focus on excellence.Emotional reason – Whether or not you recognize them, the Three Realms exist. Ignoring them, or pursuing them out of order, leads a workforce to reject continuous improvement concepts, and resist the implementation of intentional culture.Tangible reason – When you recognize the Three Realms of Op-Ex, and then pursue them in proper order, the resulting intentional culture is much healthier, delivers far greater results, and is much more sustainable.How does an organization leverage the Three Realms of Excellence?Educate top Leaders about the Three Realms of Excellence and facilitate a deep and long discussion of them that answers three strategic questions. What is the definition of each in our organization and how do we measure them? Are we aligned about the importance of the Three Realms as an archetype for pursuing excellence? What is the current condition of each Realm, what will we do next to progress in each realm, and when will we achieve sufficient Evenness to implement an intentional culture?Develop a plan with milestones and metrics for achieving your aspiration in each realm. Implement the 1440 Management System, Scrum, Agile, etc. Reduce your Gap of Knowledge (GoK) by implementing Genchi Genbutsu (Gemba Walks). Use Value Stream Maps and Kanbans to understand Flow and evenness in your organization.Optimize your Organizational (Local) Evenness by freeing up your key players to Think, Plan, and Lead (TPL). Eliminate/streamline non-value-added uses of leadership time. Teach them the skills needed to be better leaders and problem solvers. Set the expectation that key players use the time saved to lead and problem-solve more and better.Establish the reduction of Mura (Unevenness) as an essential leadership duty at all levels in your organization. Teach leaders the value of pursuing Evenness. Encourage them and expect them to pursue it. Establish Evenness metrics. Post them in the public square. Set goals. Assign stewards. Tally often.Once the initial Mura goal is achieved, repeat the approach to reduce Muri (Overburden).When ready, declare the organization sufficiently even to pursue Kaizen-At-The-Point-Of-Value and implement an Intentional Culture (Lean Concepts). Optimize the workplace infrastructure (Implement Zoning/5S). Optimize workflow. (Implement Standard Work). Lock it all in with Intentional Culture (Implement Kaizen).Rinse and repeat (Conduct Hansei and begin again with Shoshin).Key ToolsWrite us at info@tplshow.org for a free guide to the Three Realms of Excellence.

Ronnie Battista shares why it's important to be true to yourself, how designers can maintain their relevance, and what separates pretenders from innovators. Highlights include: How did you come to play in a British punk band? Should more designers be taking on product management roles? Is UX strategy as relevant today as it was five years ago? What distinguishes those who innovate from those who don't? What is Shoshin and why should we embrace it, right now? ====== Who is Ronnie Battista?

Today I talk about 3 random topics that all linked together for me. First, the idea of being a life long learner as an adult and how so often that is much harder with following through with than we realize. The second is the concept of Shoshin which is a Buddhist term meaning "beginners mind", and how you can relate this concept into your own life. Third, I briefly talk about the Netflix documentary "Untold: The Race of the Century", specifically Ben Lexcen and why his story was so fascinating to me. Finally, I come full circle with how all of these topics relate to one another.
Expertise is everywhere. We've all gotten good at various things in our lives, but that level of understanding comes with a burden. We start to view things in a very specific, rigid way. A way that fits the narrative of our experience and knowledge thus far in life. We have trouble seeing things from a different perspective any longer. Today we deep dive into using the beginner's mind to engage in new things that literally put you in the position of a beginner. The truth is, if your mind is empty, it is ready for anything. There are many possibilities in the beginner's mind, but in the expert's, there are few. -Zen Master
This week's episode is all about never losing one's childlike wonder when it comes to learning new things. It's a Japanese concept called Shoshin, meaning "beginner's mind." The practice of Shoshin acts as a counter to the hubris and closed-mindedness often associated with thinking of oneself as an expert. This concept clearly captures 100% of Nikki's overall view of life.

Who is the Little Guy?The Little Guy is a version of yourself that lives in your head.It's an inner voice that sows doubt, fear, and self-hatred. The little guy is a dark part of you that tears you down and pushes you to be petty and negative. It's an inner voice that we must all overcome if we seek to live happy, healthy lives.Why is overcoming the Little Guy important?Because the Little Guy robs leaders of valuable thinking time, resulting in less effective solutions, less inspirational interaction, and even less time leading.To lead well, leaders need the full capacity of their minds. They must have time to think, and those thoughts have to be very clear.Our brains are kind of like computers. We only have so much space available to process things. If we clog our brains up with the unproductive, maybe even counterproductive, thoughts of the Little Guy, we're reducing our capacity to TPL (Think, Plan, and Lead). To be the best leaders we can be, we must learn how to overcome the Little Guy, because it's destructive, distracting, and takes you off task.How do we contain the Little Guy?One - Acknowledge that the Little Guy occupies space in your head and commit to containing it.Two - Keep the Little Guy contained. At the time of big decisions and important interactions ask yourself, "am I containing the Little Guy?" Develop an internal leadership kata[1] tocontain the Little Guy. Optimize your Inner-Coach – the adversary of the Little Guy. Perform Hansei (self-reflection). Use the 3 Questions of the After-Action Review to do this. What was supposed to happen? What actually happened? What will I commit to do next time to improve the outcome?

MOUVERS PODCAST - Mouvement et Conversations Cosmiques avec Nomad Slim
Bienvenue pour une nouvelle conversation cosmique avec un ami de longue date, une vraie connexion de cœur, un ARTISTE, entrepreneur, mentor, et compagnon de route, Mike Wrobel.J'ai connu Mike il y a plus de 8 ans déjà lorsque je venais à peine de m'installer à Tokyo, au Japon, et que je travaillais dans les milieux créatifs au cœur de Harajuku.Une des rares amitiés qui dure depuis longtemps et de laquelle j'arrive en permanence à apprendre, grandir et m'élever.Je suis honoré de présenter un nouveau MOUVERS sur ce podcast avec lequel on plonge dans la CRÉATIVITÉ, l'entrepreneuriat, la croissance personnelle,Au travers d'un des thèmes phares de ce podcast : la PRAXIS. Mike est un illustrateur depuis le plus jeune âge, une de ces personnes réellement passionnée et qui a eu le courage de croire en lui de plonger pleine balle dans son art.Mike revient sur son aventure d'artiste à son compte depuis l'enfance, jusqu'à sa grande Breakthrough avec sa série d'œuvres sur la série Game of Thrones, Puis jusqu'à sa plus récente aventure, sa nouvelle prise de risque complet, la création de son propre Graphic Novel. Comme je le répète, être un MOUVERS, c'est avoir cette Mentalité du Shoshin ou le Beginner's Mindset, et continuer de se mettre des défis quitte à redémarrer de zéro.Mike revient sur tout son processus créatif, depuis l'acquisition de nouvelles compétences, à la création d'une histoire, de personnages, et ses influences Pop Culture des années 80.On transitionne dans une seconde moitié d'épisode sur cette industrie cinématographique et du divertissement Américaine en péril à cause d'un pays en proie à une CRISE Identitaire majeure.Mike nous présente les dangers de ce qu'on appelle la Woke Culture, ou le Marxisme Identitaire, à l'origine de changements parfois violent dans l'éducation et la culture américaine.Comment se prémunir de ces véritables ASSAUTS philosophiques et idéologiques qui nous poussent à la division et nous éloignent des valeurs ancestrales plus saines,Comme le BON SENS, le bien commun, la tolérance et la bienveillance.Une nouvelle opportunité de lier le corps, le cœur et l'esprit comme une unité indivisible faisant office de barrière protectrice face aux agressions du monde externe. Mike est un amoureux du cinéma, de l'art, de la liberté d'expression et nous rappelle l'importance d'avoir le COURAGE d'aimer et de soutenir ces œuvres artistiques.Un épisode plein d'humour malgré le caractère sensible apparent de certaines thématiques liées à l'identité, au genre, à la liberté de parole, ou encore à l'éducation...J'avais hâte de recevoir un nouvel ami de longue date sur ce podcast et lui offrir une scène pour partager ses gemmes philosophiques.Un épisode qui va t'aider à trouver des centres d'intérêt, pratiquer des années ton art, OSER créer une vie autour de tes passions, et vivre avec intégrité.Très bonne écoute les mouvers !Les notes, les liens, les ressources de cet épisode> https://nomadslim.com/podcast/05-05-2022-mike-wrobel/Connecter avec MOUVERSLes Formations en ligne : ACADÉMIELa Salle d'Entraînement en ligne : DOJOLa Communauté privée : COMMUNAUTÉLe Podcast est aussi sur YOUTUBEAbondance et Gratitude,Coach Nomad SlimMOUVERS, Vivre en Mouvementwww.nomadslim.comSupport the show
Buckle up for Rancid B!#@h Bella as Leia learns all about her childhood as an African American raised in Mississippi, living with albinism and her journey into kink all the way to Kansas City. We talk about her struggles with racism and colorism, how being “different” can be turned into something positive in the long run, and how recovering from narcissistic abuse and codependency changes your entire view on the modern world. Bella has been a student of Kundalini Yoga for 10 years and experiments with incorporating her research of physical therapy and body awareness into kink play. Formally trained in movement for the stage, Bella has found kink play and body conditioning to be the perfect balance between performance and self expression. The human form is such an amazing instrument and Bella believes that self expression in kink should be available to all body types. Bella has bonded with her partner Shoshin over their pursuit of collaborative partnership and finding the play in play. She likes to describe her dynamic as "summa". Summa this; summa that! Why not take a little bit of everything you like and make it something all your own? Bella finds herself drawn toward activities that leave room for creativity and artistic expression.

THE Sales Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
Sales is a battle. Not a battle with the buyer, although sometimes it feels like that when they won't purchase from us. The war is going on inside our own heads. We have imposter syndrome telling us we are not good enough to do the job, even when we have some modicum of success. We have the reverberation of negative self talk, telling us we are useless, when we fail to meet the sale's quota. The clients are beating us up on price, the sales manager is beating us up on results. The vast majority of the time spent in sales sees us failing, being constantly rejected, losing revenues, losing clients, losing opportunities. This is the battleground for our thoughts. This year is my 51st year training in traditional karate and so let's draw on four mindsets which are central to success in battle. Shoshin – the beginner's mind Our mindset when learning new skills is incredibly open. We are keen, flexible, adaptable and hungry to improve. We were like this when we first started in sales or when we started selling a new range of products or services for the first time. As time progressed and our knowledge improved, our mindset shifted from how much can I learn, to how little can I do for the same result. We are now looking for corners to cut, time to be saved, energy to be conserved. We are busy people, so much of this makes sense, but as part of the package we also carry our bad habits around with us. Some of those corners should not be cut, some of that time and energy should be deployed not saved. Each financial year we start again. Let's reinvigorate our beginner's mind and go back to the basics of sales. Let's purge ourselves of the barnacle like bad habits which have attached themselves over the last year. The beginner's mind helps us to go back to zero and look at the whole picture again, in a fresh way. “Knowing what I know now, how would I do things differently?”, is a genius level question, to help us get the success we seek. Using the shoshin mindset, let's start again and re-set our sales skills, philosophy and actions. Mushin – the mind of no mind In karate training, my instep would land on the side of my opponent's temple, before I knew it. This was the product of thousands of repetitions of that kick, so that the neuron grooving was so well accomplished, the action took place without conscious thought. That is a state of mushin, which in the West we call “flow”. In sales, we know our process so well, we can guide the buyer to the right decision, without having to think what to say and when to say it. What comes out of our mouth is effortless, confident, intelligent and perfect for that moment. Clients have precise, internal radar for risk. Salespeople who stumble and fumble for words or are not articulate, trigger flashing red warning lights and piercing sirens to go off in the buyer's mind. The sales conversation wanders all over the place, but the professional salesperson keeps shepherding the flow back to the next stage of the sales cycle to keep the deal on track. The outside appears calm and the inside is calm too, because the salesperson is in flow and doesn't have to scramble for what to say next. Like those many roundhouse kicks, this is the product of thousands of repetitions in role play practice with colleagues and in actual buyer conversations, such that the words appear without conscious thought. Zanshin – the remaining mind In Karate, the blow is delivered and then we exercise supreme vigilance, with no relaxation in concentration, remaining completely focused on the opponent. In sales, we need to stay focused on the client after the sale. The temptation though is to move on to the next client. This makes sense from an efficiency point of view, but is it really effective? If we see the relationship in partnership terms, we want to stay close with that buyer. We want the reorder, the upsell, the cross sell, the referral. None of that happens by accident or good fortune. We have built the trust and we have to stay with the client, constantly keeping in touch, rather than just moving on to the next target. We all know it is much cheaper and easier to sell more to an existing client, than it is to go out and acquire a completely new client. Keeping in close contact with an existing client, after they have purchased, takes time and energy and we can be tempted to move on. Keep the zanshin mindset at the forefront of how you deal with buyers and the rewards are long term and well worth it. Fudoshin – the immovable mind One of the toughest drills in karate training is to have your back heel against a wall and then face a continuous series of attacks, one after another, from your training partners. They get a break and don't tire, but you don't have that luxury, as wave upon wave of lightening fast blows are rained down on you. Rejections in sales are debilitating. Five tough rejections in a row, when cold calling, sees most salespeople giving up. Your lovely client buying from your competitors hurts. People you know well, who don't contact you when they need your product or service, buying it from somewhere else is agonisingly painful. Sales can feel ferocious at times. We need an immovable mindset, where we won't crack, give up, wilt or surrender in sales. Harden up everyone and keep going, no matter what. Your back is against the wall and you have to keep going regardless. Mindset decides everything in sales. The good part is we get to choose the mindset. Consider these four Japanese warrior mindsets as metaphors for sales success – no matter how hard it gets.
Episode 51 - A Beginner's MindsetWorking in sales, we've all heard about having different mindsets in order to be successful. A positive mindset, a growth mindset, make sure you don't have a fixed mindset, etc. Well, there's a concept in Zen Buddhism known as Shoshin, which means “beginner's mind.” Shoshin refers to the idea of letting go of your preconceptions and having an attitude of openness when studying a subject. When you are a true beginner, your mind is empty and open.What is a beginner's mind?Having a beginner's mindset means you approach the world through a beginner's eyes. The term is translated from the original word, Shoshin, which is a word that comes from Zen Buddhism. It means you look at every situation you're placed in as if it's the first time you are seeing it.The late Shunryu Suzuki wrote about the concept of Shoshin in his book Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind:“If your mind is empty … it is open to everything. In the beginner's mind, there are many possibilities, but in the expert's mind there are few.”Think of it this way, a beginner doesn't have any expectations, preconceived notions, or past experiences to limit their view of a situation. Beginners also have curiosity towards something new and are open and eager to learn. This means that a beginner has access to a world of possibilities. When they try something, new there are no existing expectations to limit their mindset about what could (and should) happen.Having a beginner's mind means developing this mindset even when you already know something or have lots of experience with a topic. On the other hand, an expert mind is an attitude taken when someone believes they know enough about something in order to achieve what they need to do.With this expert mindset, people make assumptions and don't tend to ask questions about a given situation before they make a decision. They believe there is one correct solution, and that whatever deviates from that solution is ‘wrong'. Although an expert may know a lot, an expert mindset provides a narrow point of view that can block you from finding new (and better) solutions to a problem. A beginner, however, will not see a right or wrong way to approach a problem or situation.Connect with me on LinkedIn and let me know your thoughts!
THE Sales Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
The word shoshin or beginner's mind in Japanese is a great metaphor for the world of sales. When we start some activity there is a simplicity, a purity about what we are doing. We don't have enough information or experience to have any particular angles on what we are looking at. We take things as they are and we have no delusions about how they should be. We have no habits yet, because the activity is too fresh and new. There are no habits to unwind either, because we are deep into trying to grasp what we are supposed to be doing. We are hungry to master this activity and we are dedicating our mental and physical efforts to do so. We are committed to getting it right. This is a great mind set to help us improve, to polish what we are doing and to tackle new things. In sales, we are always under pressure from numbers, boss expectations, threats of removal and financial doom. One year can easily morph straight into the next, with a brief cessation of hostilities over the new year holidays. We were beaten down and tired over the course of the previous year and are slightly refreshed as we enter the new year. We tend to bring all of our baggage from the previous year with us though, especially our mindset. We just pick up where we left off and we are not elevating our chances of success in this year. If we grasp the shoshin concept, we will take a close look at what we are doing, what we are trying to achieve and what needs to happen for us to be successful. We will begin to break down the various tasks required into their component parts and analyse our strengths and weaknesses. We will investigate how we can build those strengths even further and look to what we need to alter to diminish our weaknesses. Why aren't we doing this constantly throughout the year? The answer is very simple – we are too busy running on the spot. We are constantly chasing the numbers, trying to slam square pegs into round holes and permanently stressed. The break at new year is a great time to reconsider how we are doing things and what things we should stop doing and which things we should start doing. This sounds simple enough, except that we don't do it. Each component of the sales cycle needs to be interrogated for where we can improve. Are we asking for enough referrals or at all? Can we be more proactive this year? We know we should never ask in a dumb way such as “do you know anyone….”. This opens up the entire world to our client and they are crushed by the enormous weight of that consideration. We need to ask about a group of faces they can see in their mind's eye. It might be members of the Chamber of Commerce they belong to or their golf group or their friends or associates. If we have given good service to them as a salesperson, we have every right to ask for a referral and we shouldn't be shy about it. When we started in sales we had no hesitation to ask, but over the years of constant rejections and being beaten down on price by buyers, we have become constrained in our thinking. On another front, are we following up leads fast enough? Two hours is deemed as the window of opportunity to contact a client when they enter the lead funnel. Maybe they clicked on a search word and were directed to your website and then signed up for a newsletter or something where they gave up their contact details. Is the internal system able to deliver their details to you within that two hour time frame and are you sufficiently motivated to drive this lead followup to the peak of your priorities? When you got your first leads, you were a demon on speed to do the followup, you were like a rocket to get hold of that client. Over the years you may have gotten into a lope and forgotten how to sprint hard to grab the business. Go back to your beginner's mindset and remember how you used to approach things. Are you doing enough research on the company and the buyer before you contact them? Were you an avid detective when you first started selling, trying to unearth as much information as possible on the target company before you made the call? How about now? Has complacency set in and you feel you don't need to do that anymore, because you can wing it and you are too lazy or too busy to do the work? If you have been selling for a while you have seen the emergence of unbelievable engines of client search called social media. Even if there are no annual reports available because they are not a listed company, the chances are high they will have a company website or multiple social media accounts. Before we meet the buyer, we can know so much more about them. We are looking for connectors, commonalities to break that wall between us, so we can build the credibility and trust. What a wonderful age in which to be a salesperson. Let's re-create that shoshin, beginner's mind for this year and get back to doing the things we know we need to be doing, but which we have let slide. Let's get our mindset right while our competitors drag their sorry selves into 2022 and change nothing. We can use our shoshin to get an unfair advantage over our rivals and make this the best year possible for ourselves.

Sufjan Stevens is one of the most prolific songwriters working today, and it feels as though his drive to write songs is as much about the creation of music, as it is the understanding of creativity itself, and finding different ways to explore it. He first heard Angelo De Augustine a few years ago, and when you hear Angelo's voice you'll understand why Suf signed him to his label. And why they decided to make an album together. A Beginner's Mind is a record inspired and created by a few forces. Sufjan and Angelo holed up in a cabin in upstate New York to write it. They would watch old movies at night; classics like Point Break, She's Gotta Have It, Silence of the Lambs, even Bring It On Again. Then they'd use these stories to write their own. But they also threw in the I Ching, and a Zen Buddhist principle of Shoshin, or A Beginner's Mind. What's come out of it is a beautiful collection of songs, and the inspiration behind my Take 5 theme of Absolute Beginners. From an epic recording of Nina Simone, to the short and surreal world of Ivor Cutler, and the incredible world of Prince, this is a beautiful journey with two absolute angels. Judy Garland - 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' Prince - 'The Ballad of Dorothy Parker' Nina Simone - 'My Sweet Lord / Today Is A Killer' Ivor Cutler - 'Sharks' Beverly Glenn-Copeland - 'Ever New'

Erica & Dakota's love story starts with them meeting on Tinder but the myronic twist is it was Dakota's ex-wife that chose Erica…Wait…What?! #thatsmyrony love About the Guests: About Erica OGrady: A seeker in a world of foolish certainty, Erica strive to see the beauty and connection inherent in all people, ideas, and things. She is dedicated to openness - what in Zen is called Shoshin or Beginner's Mind. At the same time she finds comfort in a deep devotion to her own personal Faith. She is currently exploring the space where conviction and uncertainty frolic and play. Connect with Erica at http://exceptional.agency and http://twitter.com/ericaogradyAbout Dakota Brown: Dakota is a curious wanderer who has journeyed 43 years on this tiny planet in an infinite cosmos. He has spent much of that time living day to day as father, husband, a carpenter, tech professional, entrepreneur, outdoorsman and martial artist. He has struggled mightily at times, with understanding his faith, yet it has always been an integral part of his life. He has made some good choices and many not so good choices throughout his life; the latter having provided great lessons and an unseen chipping away at his protective shell to reveal a more authentic way of living. Having experienced forms of Christian Legalism, pursued Humanism, attempted to fit into traditional Evangelicalism, and even explored Earth religions-he ultimately decided to surrender to God. To accept he is a disciple of Jesus, who he considers the ultimate spiritual warrior. Through this journey, he recognized that the shell must be broken, in order to take the next right step on the path before him. With fear and wonder, along with help from those placed along his journey, he founded Spirit Warriors with the following purpose; to guide and explore with others the path of authentic living where masculinity and vulnerability meet spirituality to unleash true potential and bless others. You can get in touch with Dakota at www.spiritwarriors.life About the Hosts: Alysha Myronuk is the creator of the fun new word of myrony (my+irony) which are the crazy coincidences that happen in life that we can't explain and is also another word for sign/synchronicity. Her life was fairly normal until she got into a car accident that triggered fibromyalgia at the age of 18 and had to deal with that very painful chronic condition along with many other life challenges including loss of both parents, marriage, divorce, suicide attempts, alcohol and prescription drug abuse and a full hysterectomy by the time she was 35. Alysha's strong spiritual connection and tenacity is what helped her through those very dark days that lead into years at times. Later she realized the reason she went through those trying times was so she could help others struggling with life's challenges and share the understanding of how to move forward.She now lives in San Jose, CA but still considers herself an East Coast girl at heart after growing up in Northern New Jersey and living in Delaware, Maryand and DC area for her entire life until she moved to California 8 years ago in 6 days which is a part of her myronic journey that helped her tap into her super power that she calls her “Spiritual Spidey Sense”. Thanks to her many careers which include hospitality & sales has allowed her to meet and work with so many different people but she is extremely excited to now be following her calling in
Have you ever met someone that's so stubborn, so stuck in their ways, that they're difficult to reason with? They wouldn't consider new ideas because “this is how they've always done it”? These people are everywhere. Maybe you work with them. Maybe you are one of them in a certain area of life. It's understandable. Once we gain familiarity or mastery in a subject matter, we gain confidence. The pianist that has played for 15 years has a deep belief in her ability that only comes from hard work. But sometimes that deep belief makes us set in our old ways. There is a concept in Zen Buddhism, called shoshin, or Beginner's Mind. Shoshin is the opposite of being stuck in your old ways. It means that your mind is a blank canvas, with each day's information creating a brand-new portrait of wisdom. More concretely, it means you're willing to learn from others. You know there's always a chance to improve and that, in some way, everyone knows more than you. Shoshin is the executive that uses our current global climate to take a class. It prompts the busy father to learn a new skill, instead of binge Netflix. It gives the young “prodigy” enough humility to ask for help when it's needed. Approach today with a Beginner's Mind, and take note of how much you still have to learn. This post is from our new series, Daily Momentum.
