Job vs Career: The Mindset Shift That Changes EverythingIn this episode, Swami and Aswin explore the fundamental difference between approaching professional life through a "job lens" versus a "career lens." While a job focuses on immediate tasks and short-term objectives for monetary compensation, a career requires having a larger vision, imagination, and aspiration for where you want to be in 15-30 years. The discussion reveals how extraordinary professionals distinguish themselves through three key elements: they develop a portfolio of skills beyond their current role requirements, maintain a lifelong learning mindset with heroes and mentors to emulate, and have the courage to "disrupt themselves" every few years rather than becoming complacent. Using examples from Ilaiyaraja's musical journey and Nitin Paranjpe's rise at Unilever, the episode demonstrates how career-minded individuals prepare for future opportunities by building capabilities they don't yet need, while job-focused individuals risk losing relevance over time. The conversation concludes with practical resources for making this mindset shift, including the My TRUE Compass diagnostic tool that helps professionals align their purpose, mindset, and practice for extraordinary success.5-point SummaryJob vs Career Mindset: A job is what you do today for money with short-term focus, while a career is a life journey requiring 15-30 year vision and imagination of where you want to be professionally.Portfolio of Skills: Extraordinary professionals build capabilities beyond their current job requirements by studying what skills they'll need for their dream role (like a CFO learning about board management, fundraising, and industry trends even as an entry-level finance executive).Lifelong Learning with Heroes: Career-minded individuals identify heroes in their field, study their biographies, and continuously learn from the best practitioners, while job-focused people stop learning and eventually lose relevance in their 30s and 40s.Courage to Disrupt Yourself: Every 5 years, extraordinary professionals deliberately make themselves "comfortable with being uncomfortable" by taking on new challenges, saying no to attractive but misaligned opportunities, and pivoting to stay ahead of industry trends.Purpose-Driven Career Diagnostic: Use tools like My TRUE Compass to regularly assess if your purpose, mindset, and practice are aligned, treating your career development like a systematic process rather than hoping for the best outcome.Timestamps00:00:27 - 00:07:41 The Core Difference00:07:41 - 00:16:36 Self-Limiting Beliefs00:16:36 - 00:23:16 Building Vision00:23:16 - 00:31:09 Making the Transition00:31:09 - 00:39:40 Focused Learning00:39:41 - 00:40:58 Personal Disruption#JobVsCareer, #CareerMindset, #ProfessionalGrowth, #LifelongLearning, #CareerDevelopment, #BeExtraordinary, #DisruptYourself, #CareerVision, #ProfessionalSuccess, #CareerPlanning, #SkillBuilding, #CareerGoals, #ProfessionalMindset, #CareerTransformation, #MyTRUECompass⁠Selected Links and Show Notes⁠: https://www.contraminds.com⁠Subscribe to our Weekly Newsletter⁠: https://blog.contraminds.comFollow UsTwitter: https://twitter.com/contramindsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/contraminds/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/contramindsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/contraminds

Welcome to the Arete Coach Podcast, hosted by Severin Sorensen. With an episode titled "Will Over Skill: Building High-Performance Teams Through Purpose-Driven Leadership." In this episode, recorded via Zoom on November 13, 2024, we are joined by Pete Sciabarra, an executive coach, Vistage Chair, and former Vistage corporate executive. Pete brings a unique blend of military, corporate, and coaching experience to the conversation. As a former U.S. Navy captain and helicopter pilot, he transitioned into executive leadership, ultimately holding senior roles at Vistage, where he oversaw a $25 million segment of the business that achieved the company's number one ranking. Pete Sciabarra's journey is marked by dedication to service and leadership excellence. From his early days at the Naval Academy to his role as a helicopter pilot during Desert Storm, Pete's military career shaped his leadership philosophy. His path took an unexpected turn when his son was diagnosed with autism, leading him to pursue a Ph.D. in Leadership Studies from the University of San Diego, focusing his research on adults with autism. This personal challenge transformed his understanding of human potential and care. As a Vistage Chair in San Diego, Pete facilitates executive peer groups that help CEOs and business owners break through barriers, fostering collaboration and personal accountability. His expertise in crisis leadership proved invaluable during emergency relief efforts for businesses affected by major hurricanes. Beyond his professional life, Pete's commitment to service extends to coaching high school varsity inline hockey, bringing the same focus on teamwork and resilience from the boardroom to the rink. Pete's experience with Vistage demonstrates the transformative power of peer advisory groups. He emphasizes that successful peer groups aren't just about business advice—they're about creating a safe space where leaders can share challenges they might not discuss elsewhere. The key to successful peer groups lies in selecting members who are lifelong learners and who understand they don't have all the answers, creating an environment where vulnerability and growth can flourish. The Evolution of Leadership in the AI Era as artificial intelligence reshapes business landscapes, We explore frameworks and AI like Wiki, SWOT, Porters Five Forces, and Blue Ocean Strategy. Pete highlights that while AI tools can enhance decision-making and analysis, they won't replace the need for authentic leadership and human connection. He emphasizes that successful leaders must adapt to new technologies while maintaining focus on people-centric leadership, caring deeply about their team members' needs and development. The Importance of Continuous Learning and Adaptation Throughout the episode, Pete's journey from military service to executive coaching underscores the importance of continuous learning and adaptation. His experience shows that effective leaders must remain curious, humble, and open to new perspectives. Whether it's embracing new technologies like AI or understanding different leadership challenges, success comes from maintaining a learning mindset and being willing to question established assumptions while staying true to core values of integrity and service. The Arete Coach Podcast seeks to explore the art and science of executive coaching. You can find out more about this podcast at aretecoach.io. This episode was recorded on November 13, 2024.

In the latest episode of Building Better Developers, Rob and Michael continue their journey through Season 23, “Building Better Habits.” In Episdoe 5 the focusing on improving coding skills. Like diving into why developers should consistently refine techniques, stay updated with evolving coding standards, and explore new tools. This hosts go beyond just writing code; it's about forming habits that make continuous learning an essential part of a developer's daily routine. Tools and Techniques Rob shares insights on the importance of regularly updating coding habits and exploring new languages and techniques. While it's easy to rely on familiar coding methods, especially in stable languages like Java, doing so can lead to missed opportunities to improve coding skills and write more efficient code. Rob suggests developers make time to explore updates in the languages and tools they already use, as newer features and standards can bring significant performance and workflow benefits. The Importance of Tools for Improving Coding Skills Michael builds on this idea by discussing the importance of trying out different tools. Many developers grow accustomed to particular development environments like Visual Studio or IntelliJ. Becareful relying exclusively on one tool, because this can limit your skills as a developer. Instead, Michael recommends creating sample applications (like the kitchen sink app) to test how various development environments work. Experimenting with multiple IDEs (integrated development environments) can make developers more versatile, which is especially valuable as they shift projects or roles. Coding Standards and Best Practices Maintaining coding standards and regularly reviewing best practices are essential to improving coding skills. As Michael explains, developers' understanding of best practices should grow over time. Start by revisiting previous projects. This can be a great opportunity to enhance the quality of code. The kitchen sink app can be a helpful reference for testing and refining best practices, helping developers ensure that new projects begin with a foundation of high-quality, standardized code. Resources for Improving Coding Skills Rob offers practical resources to assist developers in their continuous learning. He mentions platforms like CodeSignal, where developers can engage in challenges and tutorials, practicing coding skills in real-time. This type of interactive platform mirrors real-world coding environments. This allows developers to get immediate feedback and making it ideal for those aiming to learn new languages or strengthen their problem-solving skills. He also encourages developers to explore podcasts, blogs, and forums to stay informed about trends. Also, look at changes in their coding languages and frameworks. Daily Commitment to Improving Coding Skills Spend 10–15 minutes daily learning something new about a coding environment, tool, or language. Rob suggests beginning with an overarching goal—such as exploring a recent update in a language—then breaking it down into small daily learning segments. This incremental approach to learning makes it easier to grasp new information without feeling overwhelmed and helps developers make continuous progress. Improving Coding Skills by Understanding Standards Michael emphasizes that improving coding skills goes beyond practice; understanding the “why” behind coding standards is essential. This deeper comprehension helps developers apply coding standards effectively and reduces the likelihood of coding “blindly” or by habit alone. With this approach, developers improve their code quality, problem-solving skills, and ability to communicate technical choices within their teams. The Episode's Challenge: A Week of Learning Challenge for Improving Coding Skills The episode wraps up with a learning challenge for the week: pick one coding or technology-related topic to explore. Rob and Michael recommend choosing a topic that complements the developer's current skill set, whether it's a new feature in a familiar language, articles on coding standards, or recent security protocols. By setting aside a small amount of time each day to learn something new, developers can gradually build knowledge and gain new insights for a week. Improving Coding Skills through Small, Daily Steps Episode 5 of Building Better Developers provides an actionable approach to continuous improvement for developers. By forming habits around learning and experimentation, Rob and Michael show that developers can stay sharp, relevant, and prepared for a fast-evolving tech industry. Their advice—taking small, daily steps toward learning something new—reminds developers that effective growth is as much about mindset as technical skill.

#612: Mastering Buyer Needs, Skill Building, and Uncovering Hidden Market Opportunities In this episode, John Harp joins the host to discuss key strategies for real estate agents to grow their business, even when the market is tough. The focus is on understanding what buyers need, improving skills, working with other agents, and finding hidden opportunities in the market. The episode starts with an introduction to growth calls. John Harp explains how these calls can help agents build a strong foundation for their business and give them a clear plan. He emphasizes that the most important thing is to provide value to clients. Next, the conversation moves to current market conditions. The hosts talk about how interest rates are higher and there are fewer homes available. They highlight the importance of finding serious buyers and not wasting time on those who aren't ready to buy. To succeed in this market, agents need to prospect more and work harder to find the right clients. Understanding what buyers want is crucial. The hosts share that the top three things buyers are looking for are the right home, good terms, and a fair price. Agents need to listen carefully to what their clients want and make sure they are offering something valuable. Developing the right skills is another key topic. Agents need to be able to understand their clients' needs and have a clear process for finding the right home. This can be challenging, especially for newer agents, but it's important to keep learning and improving. Collaboration and networking with other agents are also important. The hosts discuss how working with other agents can help find more opportunities, like open houses and listings. Bigger teams and brokerages can be very helpful in this new market environment. Finding off-market solutions is another strategy discussed in the episode. This means looking for homes that aren't listed for sale yet. Agents can prospect other agents for these hidden opportunities or conduct walkthroughs of homes that are for sale by owner. This effort can be a big value advantage for clients. Several action items are suggested to help agents apply these strategies. Agents should recommit to the process of finding the right home for their clients by asking detailed questions about their needs and wants. They should prospect more aggressively to identify serious buyers and avoid time wasters. Collaboration and networking with other agents in the marketplace can help find off-market solutions for clients. Conducting for sale by owner walkthroughs is another great way to find potential homes for clients. Tune in to this episode to learn practical tips and strategies for growing your real estate business. From understanding buyer needs to finding hidden opportunities, John Harp and the host provide valuable insights that are easy to understand and apply. Don't miss out on these useful tips to help you succeed in the real estate market!   Feel free to dive in: https://7FigureBP.com/ Let's make it happen!

Wiggle, citing examples of squatters falsely claiming leases, emphasizes the need for urgent legal reform. Sperrazza criticizes the inaction of the government and law enforcement, making note of the striking contrast between the situation in New York and the stricter enforcement in places like Florida. Other topics discussed in this episode revolve around several issues affecting New York state, including government harassment and labor audits, increased labor costs in fast food businesses, and the need for reforms in several areas.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Becky Kennedy, Ph.D., a clinical psychologist, bestselling author, and founder of Good Inside, an education platform for parents and parents-to-be. We discuss actionable protocols for raising resilient, emotionally healthy kids and effective alternatives to typical forms of reward and punishment that instead teach children valuable skills and strengthen the parent-child bond. These protocols also apply to other types of relationships: professional, romantic, friendships, siblings, etc.  We explain how to respond to emotional outbursts, rudeness, and entitlement, repair fractured relationships, build self-confidence, and improve interpersonal connections with empathy while maintaining healthy boundaries.  We also discuss how to effectively communicate with children and adults with ADHD, anxiety, learning challenges, or with “deeply feeling” individuals.  The conversation is broadly applicable to all types of social interactions and bonds.

“Success is your responsibility and your responsibility alone.” —Jason Meland Becoming the "in demand" expert that others seek out is the holy grail for entrepreneurs, as it allows you to attract a never-ending stream of qualified clients seeking your specific expertise, commanding top dollar while maintaining control of your valuable time. Mastering the art of cultivating this elite status grants entrepreneurs unmatched trust, credibility, and social proof to skyrocket their businesses to new heights. This week, Daniel interviews Jason Meland, the CEO and Founder of In Demand Coach. With 11 years as an entrepreneur and a business coach, Jason teaches coaches and business leaders how to be in demand in their niche, develop high-income skills, overcome limiting mindsets, and persevere to achieve success against all odds. Listen in as Daniel and Jason talk about adopting empowering beliefs instead of limiting beliefs, the correlation between developing high-income skills and becoming "in demand”, why prioritize yourself instead of being a people pleaser, how to ensure that your message and marketing strategies are evolving at the same time, what it means to polarize your thoughts, and practical strategies and mindset shifts to overcome worry and stress.    Be Inspired! with Daniel:  Website (Makings of a Millionaire Mindset) Website (Daniel Gomez Global) Facebook Facebook Group Twitter Instagram LinkedIn Pinterest YouTube Episode Highlights: 03:22 Shifting From Low Demand to High Demand 08:44 Self-Awareness and Skill Building in Entrepreneurship 11:43 Beliefs, Mindset, and Language 16:17 Personal Growth and Success Through Belief Collection and Community  21:26 Overcoming Fear and Prioritizing Self-Care 28:45 Evolving Marketing Strategies    34:11 Techniques for Overcoming Worry and Stress 44:44 Perseverance and Success Through Failure
