We started the show about 100 weeks ago on YouTube.
How do develop more “grit”?
“Grit” is supposedly “passion + purpose,” best defined by Angela Duckworth’s wonderful book “Grit.” The only thing obvious to any practitioner in change that Duckworth missed was “people skills.” Still, supporting the most common sense ever taught in personal development – be passionate and keep working hard and smart – with actual science is a step forward.
How do develop a growth mindset?
Everyone is talking about a growth mindset these days, thanks to Carol Dweck’s excellent book Mindset. But of course, having a growth mindset has been the main message of all personal development for over 1000 years. Here’s my suggestions:
1. Believe in your ability to figure things out.
2. Question your negative assumptions.
3.
How do choose which opportunities to chase?
Choosing between a bad opportunity and a good one is easy.
But choosing between two GOOD opportunities can be tough.
Next time, consider rating each of the following factors on a scale of 1-10 (one being bad, 10 being awesome), for each opportunity:
1. Return on Investment 2. Future Value 3.
