Summary

These days there’s no shortage of well-meaning leadership, relationship, and financial advice. It seems at every turn we’re reminded, “Winners never quit”, “Do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life”, and “You have two ears and one mouth for a reason”.  ...And while some sound pleasantly helpful, there are times this guidance is total B.S.  On today’s show we take a stab at debunking and/or playing devil’s advocate with some of the cliché advice we blindly accept so we can better decide what’s worth following, what’s worth ignoring and what just needs an update? Get ready, hot takes aplenty in this one! Reminder: Don’t miss your chance to: Save $200 on our Austin, TX Apprenticeship (March 12-13th, 2022). Prices go up DECEMBER 12th.

0:23.5

every year. It's not true development if it covers the same topics again and again.

And I only know this because this used to be me too, right?

0:30.2

I used to go to seminars and workshops and read only about the exes and o's of the profession.

0:34.9

But the technical aspects of your job will only get you so far.

0:37.9

So challenge yourself to get out of your comfort zone, get around other leaders

0:41.6

who are willing to push themselves and practice the hard stuff. The stuff that deep down, you know if you don't work on, could without a doubt, cost your

job, your credibility, and your relationships.

So if you don't know by now, I'm not really sure what rock you've been going to be

dendered, but we actually have a workshop just like this that teaches you communication,

interpersonal skills, power dynamics, office politics, influence tactics, all that good stuff that's really going to make a difference.

these scenarios with people in real time. And all the while you're getting

1:37.3

videotaped and evaluated so that when you leave you take something with you that

you can have tangibly and know that you have
