Strength to Strength

This podcast is for fellow "strivers" or work-a-holics who, like me, want to design a great career and never retire. I want to move from strength to strength as the seasons of my leadership life evolve. Is this possible? The answer is yes, and I'd like to share a starting point.

The Best Questions to Ask Yourself

Often, the heights of our success are dictated by our self-talk and our questions. When you can learn to ask better questions and give more muscular answers, you put yourself in a position to climb higher and go further than you ever believed possible. 

Rite of Passage

Savoring is an excellent technique to train our brains to focus on what is right in the world around us. It starts with recalling past experiences that meant a lot to you; often, these moments are rites of passage. 

Psychology of Work and Winning

How we respond to challenges often determines if we win or lose. Winning at work is crucial as it helps us advance causes more significant than ourselves and make a true impact in the world around us. Here are three easy ways to take advantage of positive psychology at work and learn to win.  

Pushing Through Like a Champ

Often, we must make choices in business. Give up or face our fears. When we understand the connection between fear and our eventual growth, we can learn how to best position ourselves to win at work and in life. 

Confidently and proudly humble

As we wrap up our January focus on momentum at work, we find ourselves asking how can we remain in a posture of winning despite success? Success often leads to pride and overconfidence, which ultimately leads us to fail. Understanding how to stay confidently humble will help us maintain momentum and progress on our most outstanding achievements. 

Mastering Momentum at Work

Everyone has a blind spot in life to contend with at work. That's an area of weakness we can not see. How we can manage our weaknesses and maximize our strengths has everything to do with mastering momentum at work all year long. 

Quantity, Motion, and Velocity at Work

Understanding the definition of momentum and the mindset required at work will enable us to gain and maintain momentum throughout the year—the key to understanding how to attract momentum towards you and the job you are achieving. 

A New Year and a New Us

One area of momentum we can count on is that if we can change our thinking, we can expand our potential. Thanks to brain plasticity, we all can continue to develop our thinking throughout our lifetime. There is a better way to grow your career by attracting momentum at work and increasing your ability to think and adapt.
