Dirty Chai with Chio Podcast Demystifying career success.

Welcome to our coffee date. Today we continue the Crafting an Unforgettable Presence series inspired by the book "Make Yourself Unforgettable" by Dale Carnegie. In this series, we feature little-known stories about little-known folks (by popular culture standards at least) who have an incredible amount to teach us. People like today's subject: Sir Arthur Lewis, the first black Nobel Prize winner. He was also the first black many things as you will hear. I hope he inspires you as he did me.
By the way, we are one episode away from a year of episodes.

Hello hi. Welcome to our coffee date. This week we are adding the Stockfish Story to the Crafting an Unforgettable Presence series. The series is inspired by Dale Carnegie’s book, “Make Yourself Unforgettable.” The story is inspired by Mark Manson’s book, “Everything is F*cked: A Book About Hope.” I chose this story for its ability to illustrate how one seemingly innocuous skill set can unseat any champion who does not possess it. You and I are no exception.

This is a toolkit episode. Instead of the usual thesis of change, toolkit episodes speak to specific actions to achieve a particular result. In this instance, getting on with doing stuff instead of the getting stuck in the cycle of intentions with no actions. It's about execution. The toolkit is from the book "The 12 Week Year" by Brian P Moran and Michael Lemmington. I also share how the toolkit helped me achieve my fitness goals.

Life is an exercise in feeling, being human and learning. Your relationship with yourself is no exception. Given who you are follows you everywhere, perhaps the greatest chance of success you have is to not run from “yourselves” but to go out with lanterns and seek out each one. Welcome to our weekly coffee date.

We've all encountered shame and will likely encounter it again in the future. Instead of ignoring this aspect of life, it's crucial to acknowledge and normalize it. This approach enables us to manage shame constructively, foster connections with others, and emerge from challenging experiences with our self-esteem preserved. You will recall the podcast episode in which I explained that your self-worth is guaranteed and your self-esteem is your perception of your worth and that can be high or low or otherwise waiver according to the strength of your relationship with yourself. When you feel shame, for example, you feel less worthy but your actual worth has not changed. It is also important to recognise that shame often is also a master at disguising itself as other things or emotions. It can present as concern, anger, fear of what people will say, guilt, fear of disappointing God, feeling deserving of punishment from God, or defensiveness.
