Summary

Dust is everywhere. And as soon as you get rid of it, it comes right back again. This episode begins with an explanation of what the dust in your house is made of and the best ways to keep it under control. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/10/091028114023.htm Probably everyone wishes they had more self-confidence. Who wanted want to be one of those people who can just walk into a room and take control. Nothing seems to bother them and they don’t seem to care what anyone thinks of them. It turns out we can all have more confidence and it all starts with a decision according to psychologist Sheenah Hankin author of the book Complete Confidence: A Handbook (https://amzn.to/2LTcGux) Just listening to this conversation with Sheenah will make you feel more confident and give you the tools to develop more confidence as time goes on. What does it mean to be a better person? That’s what Jim Davies decided to explore. Jim is a professor at the Institute of Cognitive Science at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada and author of the book, Being the Person Your Dog Thinks You Are: The Science of a Better You (https://amzn.to/2OyCfly) . He has developed three pillars of being a better person - productivity, morality and happiness. Listen as he explains how you too can all be as wonderful as your dog thinks you are. People do better work when they are rewarded for it. That probably comes as no surprise but there is a bit more to it than that. Listen as I explain the power of a reward to motivate people as well as how a lack of reward demotivates people. It is something every parent, employer and manager should hear.
